Description

The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center San Diego (SSC-SD) intends to procure on a full and open competition basis research and development services to design and prototype Digital Antenna Electronics (DAE) units for use with GPS receivers. The program objective is to increase the GPS jamming immunity of military platforms by developing a digital replacement for the GAS-1 (GPS Antenna System) Antenna Electronics (AE) with antijam capabilities superior to that of the current analog system. The DAE must maintain the GAS-1 interfaces in order to be backward-compatible with the existing inventory of GAS-1 antennas and user equipment. SSC-SD anticipates issuing multiple awards in support of this effort. The expected funding is several million dollars for a multi-year program that is intended to support specification development for a later full and open acquisition for production units. Access to portions of the solicitation resulting from this announcement will require a facility clearance of secret. Interested parties lacking a secret facility clearance will not have access to all specifications under this project. Only offerors with a secret facility clearance will be eligible for award. Therefore, SSC-SD requests that potential offerors submit the following information to the negotiator: Company Name; Address of business unit proposed; company cage code. This information will be used to verify that interested parties are permitted access to all specifications prior to solicitation issuance. The Contracting Officer has determined the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) number for this procurement to be 54171. The Solicitation document is to be issued on or about 15 February 2001. No hard copy versions of the solicitation will be available. All portions of the solicitation not requiring a secret clearance will be available for downloading and viewing at the SPAWAR E-Commerce Central (ECC) website http://e-commerce.spawar.navy.mil/.
