Description

THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS ONLY. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION FOR PROPOSALS AND NO CONTRACT WILL BE AWARDED FROM THIS SYNOPSIS. NO REIMBURSEMENT WILL BE MADE FOR ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO THIS SYNOPSIS OR ANY FOLLOW-UP INFORMATION REQUESTS. THE PURPOSE OF THIS SYNOPSIS IS TO NOTIFY INDUSTRY OF THE USAF INTENT FOR CONTRACT ACTION AND POSSIBLELY GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF OTHER POTENTIALLY QUALIFIED SOURCES AND THEIR SIZE CLASSIFICATIONS (SMALL BUSINESS, LARGE BUSINESS, ETC.) PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST A COPY OF A SOLICITATION, AS ONE DOES NOT EXIST. The 412 Electronic Warfare Group (EWG), Edwards AFB, CA, intends to solicit a order for a Portable Calibration Unit. The contractor shall perform to build, integrate, test, deliver, install, and verify a Portable Calibration Unit (PCU) for the CEESIM (Combat Electromagnetic Environment Simulator) radar threat signal simulators at the Benefield Anechoic Facility (BAF), Edwards AFB, California. The basic CEESIM design is composed of a digital simulation and control component, called the Digital Generation System (DGS), and RF generation components, in the form of RF generator channels and RF transmit carts. To ensure the accurate RF representation of simulated signals, each CEESIM channel must be calibrated. Channels are calibrated one at a time using software executing on the DGS component, and using “monitor and calibration” racks containing software-controlled test equipment. During real-time execution of the simulation, a DGS is fully utilized to control the connected RF channels. Hence, if all simulators are being used for their intended purpose, no calibrations can be performed on remaining RF channels not being utilized. Furthermore, with only two sets of monitor and calibration racks, no more than two channels can be calibrated simultaneously in the best case. The Portable Calibration Unit provided by this contract will be used to perform RF channel calibration independent of the valuable DGS and test equipment rack assets. Off-the-shelf test equipment will be used for calibration measurements. All relevant calibration functionality provided by the baseline CEESIM system will be available (frequency calibration, transmit linearization, transmit alignment, HFIM linearization, & HFIM DC offset adjustment), and with multiple PCUs, calibration of several RF channels will be possible simultaneously with real-time simulator operation. The contract will consist of requirements that are detailed in the attached Performance Work Statement (PWS). This requirement is for ALL services identified in the PWS. Any qualified and interested companies responding to this announcement must be able to support all areas. NO partial support responses from industry will be accepted. The Government is seeking only, qualified, experienced sources interested in performing the services identified in the attached PWS. The contractor must have current expertise in the electronic warfare systems.
