- Description
- Draft Solicitation for ATSP4 Small Business Set-Aside, for Industry Comment Draft Solicitation for ATSP4 Full and Open Competition, for Industry Comment The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) is planning for the acquisition of engineering services for the Advanced Technology Support Program IV (ATSP4), which will be the next in a highly successful series of engineering services Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contracts. The purpose of this announcement is to provide draft solicitations (Requests for Proposal (RFPs)) to industry in order to solicit industry comment. There are two acquisitions associated with this announcement: One IDIQ is a Full and Open Competition, and a second IDIQ is a 100% Small Business Set-aside IDIQ. The Full and Open Competition will have a programmatic ordering ceiling of $7.2 billion. The Small Business Set-aside Competition will have a programmatic ordering ceiling of $800 million. ATSP4 is a uniform technical and management approach that leverages advanced technologies to meet the requirements of the Department of Defense (DoD) for a quick reaction capability across the entire spectrum of technology development, acquisition, and long-term support. This capability includes the development of appropriate solutions to keep a system operational, elevate sophistication level, or meet new threats. These efforts may include developing components to meet the DoD's requirements for ultra-low volumes, extending component availability, or ensuring a trusted, assured, and secure supply of microelectronics; also included will be the intelligent and rapid application of advanced technologies to add needed performance enhancements to DoD weapon systems in response to traditional and irregular (asymmetric) threats and to the problems related to aging weapon systems. Increasing warfighter capabilities and providing solutions to electronics support problems-such as, reliability, maintainability and obsolescence-are accomplished through the development and insertion of applications of advanced microelectronics technologies. The scope of ATSP4 covers both hardware and software and includes studies, analysis, design, software, simulation, prototyping, integration, testing, producibility, and limited production. The scope of ATSP4 also includes the development of viable methods and procedures for using available tools and resources, strategies for resolution of replacement alternatives, and technical interchange in support of task accomplishment. Source Selection methodologies will be utilized which anticipate multiple awards for these indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity type contracts. DMEA anticipates making 6 - 10 awards for each of the two acquisitions, the Small Business Set-aside and the Full and Open Competition. Feedback received will be used to help us shape the RFP. Please provide comment to the draft solicitation via email, specifically identifying to which acquisition your comments are regarding in the subject line of the email: "ATSP4 Full & Open" or "ATSP4 Small Business". DMEA has established a web site located at: http://www.dmea.osd.mil/atsp4ss, where associated documentation will be posted within 24 hours. This site contains the slides presented to industry on 18 March 2014, when an industry day webinar was held, as well as a copy of both RFPs. This site will be updated when the analysis of industry comments and suggestions produce resultant changes to the draft solicitation documents. Posted information is non-binding and subject to change, subject to official soliciation documents to be posted to FedBizOpps. In support of DoD paperless initiatives, all communications regarding this acquisition will be electronic. Based on the Government's analysis of industry comments received, we anticipate issuing an official solicitation for the ATSP4 requirement in February 2015.
