COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF DECEMBER 23,1996 PSA#1747PM Intelligence Fusion, 1616 Anderson Road, McLean, VA 58 -- SINGLE SOURCE PROCESSOR -- SIGINT SOL DAAB07- POC Mr. Gary
Brain, SSP-S System Manager, (703) 275-8085. The Project Manager,
Intelligence Fusion is interested in locating sources who are capable
of performing specialized upgrades to the All Source Analysis System
(ASAS) communications subsystsems. ASAS is a tactical intelligence
system that is currently fielded to 24 operational Army units. It
operates System High in a Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI)
environment. Half of the communications subsystems are housed in S-250
shelters using Version 3 of the Communications Support Processor (CSP)
software on PDP-11 computers. The other subsystems are in transit cases
using the CGS-100 software on rugged PC computers. These subsystems
contain a year 2000 software problem and must be upgraded. The upgrade
will consist of hardware and software modifications to provide secure
communications for both multi-level record traffic and system high
network connectivity with file transfer. Hardware upgrades will make
maximum use of the Army's Common Hardware/Software (CHS) products. A
mature Version 5.X of the CSP software will be provided by CECOM but
with new communications protocols that cannot be fully engineered or
tested until an initial fielding under this procurement. Upgrades and
training will be performed at each deployment site on a
non-interference basis with personnel cleared to the Top Secret
(TS)/SCI level and are expected to be a significant schedule driver.
The required tasks are: design upgrades for both shelter and transit
cased versions; provide full documentation of the changes; develop test
plans and procedures; upgrade training materials; conduct training for
government tester and TRADOC personnel; implement the systems
integration test program; provide modification kits for all operational
systems; install the hardware at each site; coordinate with CECOM for
software installation; and assist or supplement TRADOC personnel to
conduct operator training. Due to the tight schedule, the government
will only consider organizations that possess SCI approved facilities,
SCI cleared staff, and direct relevant experience in most of the
following areas: CSP V5.x software, shelter modifications, Intelligence
and Electronic Warfare (IEW) tactical communications (including MSE
circuit, MSE packet, NRP, Autodin, TYC-39, Trojan, NEWSDEALER, JWICS
and SATCOM), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) security accreditation
testing, TRADOC approved training programs, ASAS, CHS and DMS. Written
responses must be received not later than 15 days from date of initial
publication. (0354) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0286 19961223\58-0012.SOL)
