- Description
- NASA/ARC has a requirement for hardware and software refurbishment of eight LSTAR V2 radar systems for 3-D aircraft and bird surveillance. These systems will perform surveillance and tracking of uninvited aircraft in a test region so that sense and avoid tactics can be utilized to avoid contact. The refurbishment requirements are to: 1) Inspect LSTAR V2 radar system hardware and replace broken, unusable, or missing parts with original equipment manufacturer parts, and 2) Replace the existing operating software with operating software that provides a tracker, classifier, and display tailored for air surveillance operations, allowing 3-D detection of traditional aircraft (commercial, small/private, rotary wing) as well as birds. NASA/ARC intends to purchase the items from SRC, Inc. (SRC) of North Syracuse, NY, who is the manufacturer of the radar systems, under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 -- Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. SRC retains sole unrestricted rights to the LSTAR radar system and is the only provider of LSTAR V2 software. Because specific quantities of replacement parts and services are not known, this purchase may include the use of options if such options are in the best interest of the Government. The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time on June 17, 2015.Responses shall be submitted via email only to Mike Lehner at email Michael.M.Lehner@nasa.gov. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html.
