The goal of this effort is to baseline the current manufacturing processes and modify it to improve yield for 1024 1024 format, 25 m pitch high operating temperature( HOT) mid-wave infrared (MWIR) focal plane arrays (FPA)s, and mature the process to obtain high performance 2048 2048 format, 10 m pitch HOT MWIR FPAs. This effort is a follow-on action to Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) Contract W909MY-11-C-0030, which was competitively awarded in support of the Vital Infrared Sensor Technology Acceleration (VISTA) Program. The proposed contract action will leverage the research and development previously performed in order to further refine and develop advanced infrared technologies. The estimated period of performance is twenty-four (24) months. The resultant contract will be Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF). It has been determined that L-3 Communications is the Only One Responsible Source and no other Supplies or Services will satisfy Agency Requirements. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1; Only One Responsible Source. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals.
