COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF AUGUST 9,1999 PSA#2405U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command, ATTN: SMDC-CM-CT, PO Box
1500 Huntsville, AL 35807-3801, 106 Wynn Drive, Huntsville, AL
35805-1990 A -- ELECTRONIC AND TEST DEVELOPMENT SOL DASG60-99-R-0016 POC Genna
Wooten, Contract Specialist, (256) 955-3407, Larry Ridgeway,
Contracting Officer, (256) 955-5882 The U.S. Army Space and Missile
Defense Command, Weapons Directorate, intends to negotiate on a sole
source basis for electronic and test development to Jaycor, 9775 Towne
Centre, P.O. Box 85154, San Diego, California 92186, pursuant to the
authority of FAR 6.302- 1 (a)(2)(iii). This electronic development and
testing effort will include Theater Missile Defense CINC Cell (TMDCC)
Program support to insure that all CINC Cells are maintained in a high
state of readiness. The need is for support to real-world contingency
operations in their respective theater of operations, to include Joint
operations and electronic support. This will be done through Common
Operational Modeling, Planning and Simulation Strategy (COMPASS) and
Distributed Collaborative Planning (DCP) support of legacy systems for
technical demonstrations, M&S integration and support, requirements
definitions, COMPASS/DCP operational training, and laboratory testing.
Efforts will include planning and participating in Fleet Battle
Experiments (FBEs) and Joint Theater Air and Missile Defense (JTAMD)
exercises. The contractor will evaluate future technologies and
concepts, through operational experimentation, for early warfighter
feedback, rapid prototyping and detailed concepts development.
Additional electronic and optical development will demonstrate specific
applications such as the early detection of weapons of mass destruction
(WMD) and/or special nuclear material (SNM) to support force
protection, intelligence, antiterrorism, counter- proliferation and
treaty verification missions. These key activities are the
determination of necessary parameters leading to the development of a
prototype sensor capable of detecting fissile materials, the
development of a brassboard generic imaging system and the delivery of
a userspecific fieldable prototype to be delivered in FY01. The
contractor may also be required to support of the evaluation of the
electronic operational performance of TMD/NMD assets at all levels of
integration, with detailed independent technical analysis and
monitoring, to assist SMDC in its role as NMD proponent and TMD
integrator. This action is not open to foreign or allied participation.
