Interested parties are responsible for adequately marking classified, proprietary or competition sensitive information contained in their response. The U.S. Army Communications-Electronic Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Intelligence and Information Warfare Directorate (I2WD) is conducting this RFI to determine the potential capability and sources for the design, fabrication, test and delivery of Vigilant Pursuit systems in a very short time period (approximately 6 months or less). A Vigilant Pursuit system consists of two Government Furnished Mine Resistant Anti Personnel All Terrain Vehicles (MATV). One vehicle is designated the Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) Tactical Pursuit Vehicle and the second is designated the Human Intelligence (HUMINT) Tactical Pursuit Vehicle. The vehicles will be issued to Multi-Functional Teams. The SIGINT vehicle must have the following types of capabilities. Cooperative and collaborative operations with the HUMINT vehicle. Secure communications for reporting, situational awareness, and off-board analysis with three enterprise domains (SIPR, NIPR, and NSAnet) such as R3G node, VSAT, AN/PRC-117 and COMSEC equipment. Collection and location of legacy and modern communications. Netted geo-location linked to the HUMINT vehicle. Connectivity to the DCGS-A enterprise. Manpack operations including STG, survey and collection operations. CREW system. On board computing and storage. The HUMINT vehicle must have the following types of capabilities. Cooperative and collaborative operations with the SIGINT vehicle. Secure communications for reporting, situational awareness, and off-board analysis with two enterprise domains (SIPR and NIPRnet) such as R3G node, VSAT, AN/PRC-117 and COMSEC equipment. Netted geo-location source linked to the SIGINT vehicle. CI and DOMEX reporting. DOCEX and CELLEX. Biometrics, CHARCS, HIIDE apabilities Sense Through the Wall system. 360 Camera.
