Description

ATTN: Reference Note 22.... Solicitation to be issed on or about 25 June 2004.... The focus of the IB-CSAS technology is to prevent fratricide in soldier-to-soldier, soldier-to-ground platforms & centers, platform-to-soldier, soldier-to-aerial platforms and aerial platforms-to-soldiers engagements by enabling friendly forces (dismounted soldiers, ground vehicles, air vehicles, and stationary emplacements) to locate and identify each other, and determine whether these forces would be harmed or in the potential trajectory path/impact region of a given weapon system for visible and occluded targeting, to include military operations in urban terrain (MOUT) environments. This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the Contractor??????s engineering efforts required to assess, develop and demonstrate technology areas that have the potential for furthe r development into an integrated combat identification and situational awareness technology suite, which would be suitable for employment in the Land Warrior (LW) system when the technology reaches (demonstrates) an appropriate level of maturity. Initially, the Contractor shall analyze the current state (i.e., effectiveness, maturity, scalability, cost) of the IB-CSAS technology areas and suggest a path forward for insertion into the LW spiral development cycle, keeping in mind the LW key performan ce parameters such as size, weight and power. The ultimate goal is to provide combat identification capabilities or other system performance improvement to LW with minimal developmental risk, and with reduced size, weight and power, all at an affordable p rice. The Contractor??????s analysis shall incorporate the efforts and lessons learned from the FY2003 effort, which was placed as a subcontract under the LW-SI Contract DAAB07-03-C-N001, and recommend to the Government a suitable technology development p ath. The Contractor shall not duplicate work performed under the FY2003 effort, as this SOW is intended to be a continuation of the FY2003 effort. Following the Government??????s review and approval of the Contractor??????s analysis and recommendation, the Contractor will be authorized to develop the IB-CSAS technologies (as selected by the Government) into hardware, software and firmware, integrate these into a LW system and demonstrate this as an integrated LW solution. The Contractor shall develop a modular hardware/software solution that is consistent with the LW architecture, and that allows for growth to other programs, to include NATO and coal ition forces, and authorized non-combatant organizations. Open architecture standards shall be utilized and be compatible with LW hardware and software. Additionally, interoperability with PEO STRI??????s One-Tactical Engagement Simulation System (OneTE SS) training program shall be a fundamental integration and implementation objective when the technology suite is integrated into the LW platform.
