This is a notice to announce that a Solicitation (specifically a Request for White Papers) has been issued through the Sensors, Communications, and Electronics Consortium (SCEC) for the Agile Virtual Enclave (AVE) effort.� This notice and the associated solicitation documents are issued according to the authority provided under 10 U.S.C. � 2371b, Other Transaction Authority. The current due date for White Papers is 15 September 2020 1500 Eastern Standard Time.� OVERVIEW OF PROGRAM. �The overall goal of the AVE effort is develop a Proof of Concept (PoC) for a communication device between U.S. Armed Forces tactical systems and Mission Partner Environment (MPE). This device will provide the same level of access, security, and transfer cross domain solution (CDS) capabilities that is currently in a fixed Enterprise environment, into a Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) constrained form factor for the Tactical Environment. The project will provide multiple security enclaves on a single platform using software separation within existing hardware.� Additional details are contained in the Statement of Objectives, available upon request from the Sensors Communications and Electronics Consortium (SCEC). HOW TO COMPETE.� Only members of the Sensors Communications and Electronics Consortium (SCEC) in good standing are eligible to participate in this opportunity.� White Papers must be submitted through SCEC. Large and Small Business are eligible for SCEC membership and to compete for this opportunity. If interested in becoming an SCEC member, please visit the following link to the SCEC Website for membership and contact information WWW.SCECONSORTIUM.NET.� Copies of the solicitation documents are available upon request.�� NOTICE OF FOLLOW ON PRODUCTION OPPORTUNITY.� Following successful completion of the prototype project and subject to the availability of funds, the Government anticipates transition from this prototype project to a follow-on production/sole source FAR-based contract or Other Transaction Agreement. The Government intends for this prototype project to procure a hardware and software prototype. It is expected that the full hardware and software prototype will be delivered at the conclusion of the effort. However, it is anticipated that this effort may lead to a follow-on FAR-based contract or Other Transaction Agreement for integration with additional systems. The PPA will provide for potential award of a follow-on transaction (to the Sub-Awardee), without the use of competitive procedures, to procure additional usages for the software architecture. The follow-on contract(s) or transaction(s) may be awarded to Sub-Awardee(s) that successfully and fully completed the prototype project. In sum, this RFWP may be the only opportunity that an interested entity will have to compete for this requirement for several years.� The Government encourages all interested firms to pursue this prototype project opportunity.
