This synopsis advertises the Government's intent to acquire Combatant Craft Forward Looking Infrared 2 (CCFLIR2) Systems - min: 2, max: 61 and associated CLINS (i.e. repair, upgrade, training, and Provision Item Order (PIO) spares) in accordance with (IAW) performance specification and statement of work. The Government intends to award a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a 5 year ordering period with 5 option years. Objective The Government intends to acquire a CCFLIR2 system which will make use of technological advancements to significantly improve the systems; operational range, image fusion, net-centric data sharing, information assurance, laser target designation, and seamless craft and combat systems integration capabilities. The CCFLIR2 will be a significant upgrade to the fielded (legacy) CCFLIR and will further enhance and expand the day, night, and infrared imaging capabilities and improve the operational needs. The enhanced functional capabilities are commensurate with the operational capabilities associated with the deployment of the next generation of naval craft. System Overview The CCFLIR2 System will be installed on naval maritime crafts of various types operated in littoral environments. A draft performance specification is attached for comment. A very aggressive proposal timeframe is planned, therefore contractors are requested to submit questions concerning the requirement by 15 DEC 2014 in order to allow the Government adequate time to address any issues or concerns prior to the RFP being issued. It is anticipated the CCFLIR2 System will be required to meet the performance requirements delineated below. The CCFLIR2 shall be a stabilized and watertight system providing enhanced visual augmentation capability. System or subsystem Description The CCFLIR2 System must as a minimum consist of the following: - Stabilized Gimbal Assembly (SGA) - Hand Control Unit (HCU) - Display Bracket Assembly (DBA) - Installation Kit - Interface Cable Kit - Reusable shipping container The SGA shall as a minimum consists of the following: - A high definition MWIR imager - A high definition color imager - A high definition sensor capable of imaging the NIR (can be separate or combined with another sensor) - ANSI Class 1 LASER Rangefinder - ANSI Class 3B LASER Pointer - Optics and zoom lenses - Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) compatible with Global Positioning System (GPS) Precise Positioning Service (PPS) Host Application Equipment (HAE) with Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) - Signature Management - Designed for operation in the Maritime Environment As an objective, the SGA shall include the following: - 360 degree panoramic view capability of all sensors - Combined ANSI Class 4 LASER Target Designator with ANSI Class 1 LASER Rangefinder - IMU tightly coupled with SAASM GPS - Dual band high definition 3-5 MWIR and 8-12 Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) Product Samples A product sample will be required with the proposal. The product sample must be a representation of the final system requirements. A written technical proposal will be required to describe how the contractor will meet the requirements of the performance specification and statement of work. Any differences between the representative system and the specification requirements will require a detailed explanation of how the vendor plans to modify the representative product sample to meet the specification requirements and the timeframes required to do so. It is anticipated that the Product Sample System will be required to meet the following Go/No-Go requirements in order for the written proposal to be evaluated: 1. Continuous Azimuth (AZ) movement 2. Auto-Track 3. Class 1 Eyesafe LRF (LASER Range Finder) 4. Max Class 3B LP (LASER Pointer) 5. Weight not to exceed 65 lbs for the sample (Threshold in the draft performance specification is 56 lbs) 6. MWIR sensor in the 3-5 µm range 7. Color sensor 8. Require no Dry-Air Pressurization The anticipated due date for delivery of the Product Samples for Government Source Selection evaluation is 17 FEB 2015. Failure of Product Samples to meet the go/no-go criteria listed above may exclude the proposal and offeror from further consideration for award of the Request for Proposals (RFP) requirements.
