B -- INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS OF ANTI-ARMORED WEAPONS!! POC Contracting Officer, Mr. Mack Kirkland, (850) 882-3416, ext 3162 for technical information contact Mr. Charles Reuter, (850) 882-4871, ext 3018!! 17. The Systems Analysis Effort is in support of the Sensor Fuzed Weapon (SFW), Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW), and Wind Compensated Tactical Munitions Dispenser (WCMD) programs. This effort must provide total continuity in the scientific and analytical analysis of the system/subsystem, engineering designs, technical data, and test efforts for the previously identified programs. This effort must provide continued (uninterrupted) support of the high-fidelity, engineering level models and simulations used in the test and analysis of the various systems and subsystems of the programs. This effort must also provide continued (uninterrupted) support of the models and simulations used in the independent analysis of system engineering and subsystem engineering design for the SFW, JSOW, and WCMD programs. In depth technical understanding and experience of these or similar weapon systems is required. It is imperative total Independent Analysis be uninterrupted in support of these programs, especially during theirupcoming critical and major milestones, -- i.e., Defense Acquisition Boards, System Design Reviews, Preliminary Design Review, Procurement Actions Preparations, Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and associated First Article/Lot Acceptance testing, and major/critical Program Decision Briefings. This procurement will be tasked level of effort over a one year period, with options for continued support. It is anticipated that only one source, Science Applications International Corporation, San Diego CA, the sole Independent Analysis contractor through the development, LRIP, production and product improvement phases of the SFW, and the development phase of the WCMD and the JSOW, has the necessary background, computer simulations and analytical experience to satisfy the government's minimum needs requirements for this support effort for three critical major programs. This effort requires contractor personnel be cleared for access to SECRET NOFORN WINTEL information. The Air force estimates this The Air Force estimates this program to be a five year effort consisting of a one year basic followed by four one year options at a level of effort of eight man-years per year.
