- Description
- The Department of Defense (DoD) is seeking interest by commercial entities with the capability to satisfy requirements for the procurement of Miniature Handheld Short-wave Infrared (SWIR) Spotting Scopes capable of providing users with handheld imaging capability in the 0.7 - 1.7 um wavelength, Pulse Rate Frequency (PRF) decoding (3 codes simultaneously) with selectable color spot options. This capability is highly important in regard to providing the means to accurately and expeditiously locate specific target marker and designating lasers in a near-peer combat environment. DoD currently uses various SWIR viewers; and while SWIR spot beams can be viewed they do not and cannot delineate or discriminate actual owners of lasers. The desired product lets the user identify up to three (3) different 1064 lasers and can denote their specific PRF code, making this item undeniably necessary when conducting Near Peer Fire Support Operations. Respondents with interest, experience, and current capability to manufacture the above mentioned capabilities are encouraged to respond. This is not a request for competitive proposals, but parties interested in responding must furnish in writing, a 1-4 page (not including cover page, index, or list of references) synopsis of their capability to accomplish the described work effort.

The Government will retain comments and information received in response to this notice. Proprietary information should be identified as Company Proprietary. Do not use Government Security Classification markings. Any information provided to the U.S. Government in response to this Sources Sought Notice (SSN) is for planning purposes only and will not be used as a selection consideration factor in any U.S. Government contract competition. Should the U.S. Government elect to pursue the subject requirement, an official Request for Proposal (RFP) will be released at a later date in accordance with FAR Part 5.
