MOBILE APPROACH CONTROL SYSTEM (MACS) Special Notice. This CBD announcement is for contractors seeking subcontracting opportunities. The Global Air Traffic Operations, Mobility Command and Control (GATO MC2) Program Office, Navigation & Landing Systems Division (ESC/GAL), intends to replace two mobile radar systems currently in use by the Air Force and the Air National Guard (AN/TPN-19 and AN/MPN-14K) with the MACS. Both the AN/TPN-19 and AN/MPN-14K systems are at or beyond their life expectancy and are becoming economically unsustainable. The MACS should operate within Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and International Civil Aviation Authority (ICAO) performance parameters. The MACS must be able to operate both in fixed base and forward austere locations. An Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) to the existing joint DoD/FAA Digital Airport Surveillance Radar (DASR) contract (F19628-96-D-0038) is planned to support development and acquisition of up to 18 mobile DASRs. The ECP will also provide for the factory acceptance testing; acquisition of the Airport Surveillance Radar and Operation subsystems shelters with ancillary equipment to include electronics, antennas, all necessary cabling and interconnects; MACS operations and maintenance training, spare parts, manuals, test equipment; and overall MACS integration. Those firms interested in subcontracting opportunities for the MACS requirements should contact Mr. Tony Polise at Raytheon Systems Company 528 Boston Post Road Sudbury, MA 01776. For any further information contact ESC/GAK, 75 Vandenberg Drive, Hanscom AFB, MA 01731-2103, Attn: Mr. John Abisamra or Attn: Captain Chris Barker, or via electronic transmission to: Mr. John Abisamra, Contracting Officer, John.Abisamra@hanscom.af.mil, or Captain Chris Barker, Contracts Manager, Christopher.Barker@hanscom.af.mil. This synopsis does not constitute a Request for Proposal, it does not restrict the government as to the ultimate acquisition approach, nor should it be construed as a commitment by the Government. Request you direct any questions to either Mr. John Abisamra or Captain Chris Barker. See Note 26. WEB: N/A,. E-MAIL: Click Here to E-mail the POC, Christopher.Barker@hanscom.af.mil.
