- Description
- Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition. Navigation System Calibration Research. The government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii). The solicitation number is FA8601-13-T-0179. The NAICS Code is 541712. The size standard is 1000 employees. The contract requires the contractor to provide and lead system calibration including exploratory research on ‘non-ideal-for-navigation' image and inertial sensors. The services will include the following: 1) Intrinsic calibration of a zoom lens for navigation. This includes a study on calibration repeatability when zoomed out to the stop as well as the repeatability of calibration at commanded positions (UVAN-TS01). 2) Error analysis and calibration of image timing uncertainties- specifically this includes the uncertainty associated with use of full motion video and the ability to calibrate constant timing uncertainties when GPS is available (UVAN-TS02). 3) Gimbal induced attitude error analysis and study on repeatability of these errors (UVAN-TS03). 4) Reference image, feature, and terrain storage methods. For UVAN mission and environment, identify and quantify trades associated with reference image, feature, and terrain database methods (UVAN-TS04). 5) Other trade studies as identified relevant (UVAN-TSXX). This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any proposal received within seven (7) days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Any quotations should be e-mailed to Joshua.Meyerhofer@wpafb.af.mil or faxed to Joshua Meyerhofer, AFLCMC/PZIOBB, 937-656-1412 no later than 10 May 2013 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern. Only proposals received by this date will be considered. Any questions should be directed to Joshua Meyerhofer at Joshua.Meyerhofer@wpafb.af.mil.
