- Description
- GOVERNMENT SOURCES SOUGHT REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) for Electro-Optical / Infrared (EO/IR) sensors. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. SCOPE: The Government is interested in enhancing EO/IR sensors in use for higher resolution, increased range and coverage area, and increased surveillance capability in adverse weather conditions. The EO/IR sensors and systems should have the capability to detect objects at ranges of at least 1 kilometer and in weather conditions ranging from light-to-heavy snow, rain, or fog. EO/IR sensors and systems should be capable of easy operation. Contractors submittals that the Government determines to possess potential application may be provided an opportunity to demonstrate their system in a limited-scope demonstration in the November 2008 - January 2009 timeframe. The assessment criteria are based on sensor/system technical maturity, capabilities, performance, potential effectiveness, cost, and schedule. For the purposes of the demonstration, the focus will be on verifying system ability to satisfy the assessment criteria while operating in an adverse weather operational environment. The Government does not anticipate providing funds to Contractors to participate in the demonstrations. RESPONSES: Interested parties may provide electronic or paper submittals to be received by the Government by 1630 hours on 19 September 2008. There is no specific format or outline that submittals must follow. Each response must reference the RFI title and must be limited in length to ten (10) typed pages. Specific narrative information that should be provided in the submission include: (1) System description and capabilities (2) Summary of past test events with location, dates and results (3) Logistic supportability and (4) projected unit cost estimate information. Supporting literature and test documentation that demonstrate technical maturity of your proposed solution may be included in addition to the 10-page narrative paper. Contractors offered an opportunity to demonstrate their system will be provided additional details including demonstration schedule and extent of support the Government will provide. Contractors responding should indicate whether they are a small business (S), a small disadvantaged business (SDB), 8(a), or large business (L). Telephone responses will not be honored. Technical Questions and responses to this announcement should be directed to Mr. Stephen Schelfhout, e-mail:Stephen.Schelfhout@navy.mil, postal address: Mr. Stephen Schelfhout, Code R12, Naval Surface Warfare Panama City Division, 110 Vernon Ave, Panama City, FL 32407.
