This Performance Work Statement (PWS) details requirements for the Radar Data Distribution System (RDDS) for the Joint Interagency Task Force South (JIATF-S) located in Key West, Florida. The primary objective is to modernize and upgrade the existing RDDS infrastructure to support new data formats, increased data volumes, and evolving security requirements, with the system capable of receiving and distributing radar and sensor data in serial and IP formats.

Key technical specifications include a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) flexible, modular open system architecture with bi-directional interfaces, scalability up to 320 bi-directional serial ports and 512 virtual ports, and low latency (less than 100 nanoseconds) data distribution. The system must support multiple radar/sensor data formats, including CD-2, ARSR-4, TPS-70, FPS-117, and others, with mission reliability requirements of 226,000 hours Mean Time Between Critical Failure (MTBCF). The contractor will be responsible for system design, software development, hardware procurement, installation, configuration, testing, documentation, and ongoing support at the JIATF-S headquarters, with all contractor personnel required to be U.S. citizens and maintain at least a Secret security clearance.

1.0 SCOPE OF WORK

1.1 MISSION

Reference 10 U.S. Code § 124, the United States (U.S.) Department of Defense (DoD), as the single lead agency of the Federal Government for Detection and Monitoring (D&M) of aerial and maritime transit of illicit drugs into the U.S. The DoD supports U.S. Government (USG) Agencies and Departments, and Partner Nations’ anti-trafficking and counter-threat finance efforts worldwide. The DoD uses Combatant Commands (CCMD), Military Departments, and Defense Agencies to provide a unique mix of military capabilities, platforms, Command, Control, and Communication (C3) systems, and personnel to support foreign and domestic law enforcement agencies and Governments, with mission partner Counter Narcotics (CN) assistance. The Joint Interagency Task Force South (JIATF-S) headquarters, located in Key West, Florida, executes detection and monitoring of illicit trafficking across all domains, and facilitates international and interagency interdiction to enable the disruption and dismantlement of illicit and converging threat networks in support of national and hemispheric security. This is accomplished through combined systems that create a single Common Operating Picture (COP) supporting air sovereignty, search and rescue, and regional cooperation mission sets. With the COP in place, the U.S. along with Partner Nations work in unison to provide air and maritime surveillance, communications, and command and control support to meet the mission objectives.

1.2 OBJECTIVE

The Contractor shall provide personnel, equipment, supervision, training, and materials as necessary to accomplish modernization and acceptance of the existing Radar Data Distribution System (RDDS).

The current system is made up of a series of Sunhillo Longports, and Juniper 2056 Circuit to Packet (CTP) devices that enable receiving of RADAR and sensor data, protocol conversion, and distributing that data to various stakeholders, including JIATF-S mission processing systems, customers, participating government agencies, and Partner Nations. The Contractor shall ensure the RDDS networks meet or exceed equipment reliability (defined in Para 3.6), and operational availability standards, be scalable up to 320 bi-directional serial ports and 512 virtual ports and include documentation to support Authorization to Operate (ATO)accreditation for the host network IAW applicable USG guidance. A flexible, modular, and reliable system for managing and distributing radar and sensor data is required for implementation. This RDDS will replace or augment existing systems, providing enhanced capabilities and improved data sharing.

1.2.1 RDDS Network

The RDDS shall be a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) flexible, modular open system architecture hybrid radar data distribution system for receiving remote radar and sensor data feeds in serial or Internet Protocol (IP) data format, and provide the distribution of the radar and sensor data in raw or processed serial and IP data format to data tracking and correlation processing systems, customers, and participating government agencies and Partner Nations.

The vendor will be responsible for the following:

System Design and Engineering: Design a robust and scalable RDDS architecture based on a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) solution, maximizing reuse of existing JIATF-S RDDS components where feasible.
