SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE: Naval Air Warcraft Center Aircraft Division is seeking eligible contractors to furnish effort including labor, material, and facilities as may be required to support and manufacture the items as specified within this document. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Government intends to solicit for the procurement of: Support for the MTUAS Government Program Manager Engineering and test efforts on the MTUAS MQ-27 series and ScanEagle Block E UAS systems. The MTUAS program achieved ATO for MQ-27 27 JAN 2020 and anticipates achieving F&DR and declaration of FOC in Q2 of FY21. A recent MTUAS CDD revision has resulted in the need to seek a new air vehicle solution. Current timeline anticipates the new solution identified Q4 FY21; IOC reached Q4 FY22; and FOC declared end of FY26. Concurrent with this plan, the current air vehicle solution will sunset, once the new solution reaches FOC. Until sunset, MTUAS must maintain innovational operational capability on the MQ-27 air vehicle.
The government does not possess (or cannot provide) the data necessary to perform the required continued support and development of performance improving modifications, inclusive of new technology and technological improvements, and operational and maintenance training on use of these technologies, repairs or manufacture of the item. The contractor must also review or analyze Government-designed aircraft components or payload integrations, meaning the contractor must not only possess technical data rights, but own mock or lab aircraft, maintain integration, installation and test facilities, and engage technical subject matter experts, knowledgeable of the platform technical data, including design, interfaces, hardware, software configurations, and integration. Applicable platforms are Insitu Special Operations Forces (SOF) specific platforms or variants, originating from supporting the MTUAS platform, SOF-Peculiar (SOF-P) variants of RQ-21 and other SOF-P variants of Insitu systems.
Theaters of operation and enemy forces are constantly changing and maturing, and MTUAS cannot allow any disruption or termination of upgrading and modifying the current solution to meet new threats when identified. The Government seeks to maintain continuity with the current OEM as the most efficient, practiced, proficient and cost effective means of maintaining the system functionality, integrity, maturity and competency while responding to evolutionary, emerging, expanding and competitive adversarial threats.
