- Description
- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, contemplates the acquisition of High Dynamic Range Receivers and Down Converters, in accordance with FAA Specifications and Drawing number TDWR.C.116. These receivers and down converters are required to support the Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR.) The TDWR receiver samples the signal received from the antenna and synchronizes the data with the transmitter pulses for determining doppler shift and range of the targets. The down converter is a part of the receiver that steps the radio frequency (RF) of the received signal down to an intermediate frequency (IF), which is easier to process. The digital signal processor (DSP) converts the output of the receiver to a digital format for use in the weather detection algorithms. A firm-fixed-price, indefinite delivery/requirements type contract will be awarded as a result of this solicitation. Quantities are estimated at 10 units for the base year and 36 units per year during the four one-year options. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334511. Proposals must be received by the FAA, Customer Service Desk (AMQ-100), 6500 S. MacArthur Boulevard, P.O. Box 25082, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73125, no later than 2:00 p.m. CST, date Friday, June 23, 2006. Hand-carried proposals (or proposals sent by overnight delivery) shall be delivered to Room 313 of the Multi-Purpose Building located at 6500 South MacArthur Boulevard, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73169. Proposals must be sealed and labeled as follows: SIR No. DTFAAC-06-R-02510; due 2:00 p.m. CST, Friday, June 23, 2006. Hand-delivered responses will need to allow sufficient time to process through security procedures in place at the Aeronautical Center. Overnight delivery of responses to this SIR could also be impacted if not sent in sufficient time to allow for special mail handling procedures in place at the Aeronautical Center. Any proposals received after 2:00 p.m. CST, Friday, June 23, 2006, will not be considered in accordance with AMS provision 3.2.2.3-14, Late Submissions, Modifications, and Withdrawals of Submittals. If all requested information is not furnished, the vendor's response may be determined ineligible. Potential offerors should note that the FAA reserves the right to communicate with one or more offerors at any time during the SIR process. This SIR is not to be construed as a contract or a commitment of any kind. The Government shall not be liable for payment of any costs attributed to the preparation and submission of proposals. Inquiries regarding this SIR should be directed to the Contracting Officer, Connie Houpt, 405/954-7820.
