This is a presolicitation notice for Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) services for United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM). A sources sought synopsis was published in the 22 Nov 94 edition of the CBD. USSTRATCOM has a requirement for engineering and analytical support in the planning, modeling, integration and maintenance of Command Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C41) Systems. This requirement is a total small business set-aside to provide SETA support for strategic and non-strategic C41 systems analyses, systems integration, modeling and simulation, architecture development, trade-off analysis, nuclear weapon effects support, Global Command and Control System (GCCS) integration and Corporate Information Management/Functional Process Improvements (CIM/FPI). Offerors will be required to meet the following requirments: (1) demonstrated knowledge of the GCCS concept including the systems used by GCCS, management structure, network architecture, the Joint Strategic Planning System (JSPS), and the Planning, Programming and Budgeting System (PPBS), (2) demonstrated knowledge of USSTRATCOM Legacy systems and approved migration systems, (3) demonstrated knowledge and experience with CIM/FPI Integrated Computer Aided Manufacturing Definition process/activity and data modeling techniques and Activity Based Costing (ABC) tools and techniques, (4) expert knowledge and experience with Air Force/Navy Strategic C4I systems, programs, procedures, capabilities and assessments, (5) current working knowledge of and experience in strategic war planning capabilities/systems across the conflict spectrum, (6) expert knowledge and experience in current bomber, intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), and nuclear-powered fleet ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) connectivity and networks, (7) working knowledge of current non-strategic nuclear options (NSNO) and supporting connectivity, (8) comprehensive understanding and experience in all aspects of the nuclear command and control system (NCCS), (9) comprehensive understanding of the Nuclear Technical Performance Criteria (NTPC), (10) expert knowledge of Tactical Warning/Attack Assessment (TW/AA) system performance, (11) comprehensive knowledge of current SSBN/nuclear submarine (SSN) operations and impact on strategic and non-strategic connectivity, (12) comprehensive understanding of current national policy and strategy as applied to strategic and non-strategic connectivity, (13) comprehensive knowledge of existing and emerging nuclear/biological/chemical (NBC) threats, (14) demonstrated ability to develop a Joint Decision Support (JDSS) database and the use of JDSS software, (15) TOP SECRET/Special Compartmented Information (SCI) facility and personnel clearances to include Red Integrated Strategic Operational Plan (RISOP) and Strategic Integrated Operational Plan/Extremely Sensitive Information (SIOP/ESI) accesses prior to contract start date, (16) comprehensive understanding and experience with Air Force reconnaissance and surveillance taskings, requirements, systems, programs, procedures, capabilities and assessments, (17) demonstrated expertise in current military operations and C4I issues, (18) current, hands-on-experience performing Strategic Command and Control Architecture Model (STRATC2AM) simulations of large communications networks in nuclear degraded environments, (19) working knowledge of current operating parameters associated with radio frequency (RF) systems from extremely low frequency (ELF) to extremely high frequency (EHF), (20) possess trained SUN computer system operators and systems analysts, (21) comprehensive understanding of nuclear effects and electronic countermeasures on RF systems, facilities and platforms, (22) current corporate experience with Network Simulation and Statistics Analyzer (NSSA), SKY MAP, Weapons Effects Communications (WECOM) Codes, Satellite Control Model (SCM), Worldwide Military Command and Control (WWMCCS) Allocation and Assessment Model, Analytical X-Windows Interface to Simulators (AXIS), Electromagnetic Pulse MAP (EMP MAP), and Fallout Cloud Assessment Program (ALCAP) computer models, (23) demonstrate a ''strategy-to-task'' methodology integrating GFE computer models/databases into a coherent and complementary analytic process consistent with the Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff mission-oriented analysis methodology, (24) in-depth knowledge of current hardness maintenance/hardness surveillance (HM/HS) requirements, standards and procedures, (25) comprehensive understanding of current hardening philosophy, design practices and requirements against the various nuclear weapon effects, (26) possess computer hardware and software compatible with those systems that are standard to USSTRATCOM, as well as color document and vu-graph production capability, (27) capable of responding to short notice ''ad hoc'' taskings with minimum notice (within 30 minutes), (28) understand current United States Strategic Command and United States Space Command missions.
