About this file
This is a draft Request for Proposal for the Integrated Battle Command System Low Rate Initial Production/Full Rate Production hardware segment. The Army seeks to produce IBCS hardware end items in accordance with supplied Technical Data Packages and the Critical Item Development Specification. Engineering changes may be required for obsolescence, new capabilities, and export considerations. Offerors are advised not to submit a proposal in response to this draft as the Government is currently seeking comments only and not proposals. The effort requires maintaining approved software and firmware updates, cybersecurity, authority to operate, and engineering changes during the performance period.

DISCLAIMER
| The following document is a product from the Engineering, Manufacturing and Development (EMD) phase of this program. As this program moves into Low Rate Initial Production/Full Rate Production (LRIP/FRP), changes to this document will be required. |
| This document is currently in its draft form. All sections are subject to change as needed, but some sections are already under review and updates are being prepared. Below is a list of the sections known to need substantial updates. These updates stem from a distinct deviation between the EMD contract and the LRIP/FRP contract. During EMD, the test asset and test software was contractor owned and proprietary. The current position of the program is for the program office to provide the test asset and necessary software to stimulate the hardware and software to prove functionality of the system. |

Overview The objective of this Acceptance Test Description / Procedure (ATD/P) addendum is to provide the detail test steps necessary demonstrate key functionality of the Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Battle Command System (IBCS) Relays and to confirm conformity of integrated hardware and software end items with the qualified baseline. The qualified baseline is the successful integration Major End Item (MEI) hardware and software.
IBCS Mission Assurance (MA) has the overall responsibility for all acceptance activities for the MEIs produced on the IBCS contract. In order to meet overall program milestones, the initial Relays will be acceptance tested with the Plug & Fight Processing Unit (PFPU) and the most current approved 4.5.x version of the IBCS software.
Satisfaction of the following criteria shall constitute successful completion of the Acceptance Test (AT) process:
1. Hardware components shall exhibit no defects during In-process and Functional Check-Out (FCO).
2. After hardware and software integration, Information Assurance (IA) scans and analysis will be conducted to ensure the system is in compliance with applicable Information Assurance Vulnerability Alert (IAVA) and Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) requirements to ensure IA hardening and reduce cyber vulnerabilities.
3. Following IA scans MEI hardware initialization, operations, data harvesting, and shutdown shall be completed without functional failure and/or error In Accordance With (IAW) the procedures detailed in this addendum.
IBCS IFCN Relay The Integrated Fire Control Network (IFCN) Relay features common hardware and software in a form factor that is intended to impose minimal impact to Air and Missile Defense (AMD) legacy platforms. The Plug and Fight (P&F) “B-Side” application layer interfaces with the appropriate “A-Side” Component Acquisition Program (CAP) adaptation layer for each particular weapon or sensor in the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (AIAMD) System of Systems (ASoS). The IFCN Relay provides a mobile communications node that extends connectivity to remote launcher and sensor deployments by expanding the range of Line-of-Sight (LOS) communications over the horizon and around intervening terrain features.
The IBCS IFCN provides the framework to distribute fire control quality data, commands, and messages among IBCS Engagement Operations Centers (EOCs) and P&F-enabled weapons and sensors. The IFCN consists of network components within the two MEIs and transport media used for voice, data, and video information exchanges between IBCS components.
The IFCN Relay is integrated on the IFCN Relay Platform (IRP) which is an IBCS-modified XM1061E1 Flat Bed Trailer that incorporates Non-Developmental-Items (NDIs), Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS), Government Furnished Equipment (GFE), and IBCS-developed CSCIs within software builds (see Figure 11 for an illustration).
Figure 11. IFCN V2 Relay
IPTA 2
An IBCS Production Test Asset (IPTA) will be used in support of AT. Each IPTA includes a pair of equipment racks with a minimal amount of standard MEI equipment needed to be utilized during EOC and IFCM V2 Relay MEI AT. During MEI AT, the IPTA is meant to function such that the Unit Under Test (UUT) perceives the IPTA as a tactical EOC. The UUT will be connected to IPTA using the same connections it would in the field. Using IBCS Test Exerciser (ITEx) software, the IPTA will stimulate the UUT and simulate an engagement scenario. The IPTA will provide weapon and sensor data to the UUT, but the engagement will be controlled and directed from the UUT. The ITEx provides a closed-loop simulation / stimulation execution engine for exercising IBCS components and offers the following capabilities:
1. Provides the truth picture of battle elements (Tactical Ballistic Missiles (TBMs), Cruise Missiles (CMs), Red and Blue aircraft, and direct support ground/sea assets),
1. Models IBCS-integrated components (PATRIOT, Sentinel, etc.) starting at the A-Side, supporting the dialog and functionality expected by the IFCN Relay including health and status, track reporting, sensor tasking, and engagement processing,
1. Models non-IBCS elements and simulates the network messages (Tactical Digital Information Link J (TADIL-J), Variable Message Format (VMF)) from those components,
1. Simulates engagements by flying out launched interceptors, modeling the end-game, and detecting object collisions,
1. Includes battle manager models representing functionality incorporated within IBCS-developed Common Software Configuration Items (CSCIs) to support analysis and testing.
ITEx can be componentized and configured to support all testing, training, and analysis roles for IBCS. ITEx can be executed in self-contained, external, and distributed frameworks and has substitutable component capabilities and algorithms.
The ITEx model software undergoes an evaluation, IAW PP-412, Test Tool Development and Certification, against the allocated model requirements. This procedure validates the ITEx software for use in IBCS testing.
IPTA 2 consists of two server racks. Since the IPTAs contain all communication equipment needed for AT, no Network Enclosure (NE) is needed. The server racks that comprise the IPTA contain the network equipment, communications equipment, and servers need to preform EOC functions required for AT. The IPTA will be loaded with the same software version loaded on the Relay UUT (most current approved v4.5.x version). There are two CWMI operator rackmount workstations with Dell 32” monitors. These workstations will be collocated with their monitors. Workstation 1 (ST1) will be configured to run single node ITEx and ITEx Graphical User Interface. Workstation 2 (ST2) will be configured to run CWMI and will also run the A-Side ping script. The IPTA overview is illustrated below in Figure 12. IPTA 2 Overview.
