The AMF JTRS Program has a two-phase development strategy: Pre-SDD and SDD. Pre-SDD was completed in October 2006. The Pre-SDD effort focused on the Radio Frequency (RF), network, and system architectures and initial designs for the AMF JTRS that will minimize platform integration costs. A key objective of Pre-SDD was to define and document performance requirements and associated system architectures that enable common software and hardware implementations across form factors/configurations. This acquisition is for the SDD and Optional LRIP Phase. The Government will conduct a full and open competition to select a single prime system contractor that will qualify the required number of JTR production sources, and to focus on post-PDR design, testing, certification. The SDD contract will include priced options for Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) of AMF JTRS. The SDD acquisition will follow the competitive procedures of FAR Part 15 and associated supplements and utilize full and open competition. Award will be made on a best value basis. The Government plans to award one contract for the development of AMF JTRS Engineering Demonstration Models (EDMs) for the Small Airborne and Maritime form factors on a Cost Plus Award Fee (CPAF) basis. Additional engineering studies, interim logistics support and training will be awarded on a Time and Materials - Labor Hour (T&M - LH) basis. The contract will contain options for additional waveform capabilities on a Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF) basis. Finally, options for Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) for the AMF JTRS Maritime and Small Airborne form factors will be awarded on a Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF) basis. The solicitation will be posted on the Internet at the Hanscom Electronic Request for Proposal Bulletin Board (HERBB) website: http://www.herbb.hanscom.af.mil.
