Tactical Mesh/Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) Solutions for the Operational Technology Division Statement of Work October 24, 2016

Table of Contents

Scope This is a multiple award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to provide parts and supplies to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

Description of Services/Introduction The Government is seeking parts and supplies to improve bandwidth utilization, provide higher quality surveillance data transmission, and mitigate potential security threats.

Purpose The purpose of the IDIQ will be to procure supplies and adhoc services, for the DOJ, Tactical Mesh/mobile ad hoc network (MANET). These supplies and adhoc services will enhance the DOJ’s collections capability for special events, provide alternate means of data egress in areas with poor cellular connection, and transport video streams back to a central receive point(s). The Tactical Mesh/MANET initiative is an alternative to the commercial cellular networks and an effort to identify threads that may be leveraged for joint operations. The Tactical Mesh/MANET capability will provide a cost effective and dynamic high-bandwidth network over a specific coverage area or mobile environment.

The DOJ anticipates the use of Tactical Mesh solutions to support multiple deployment scenarios:

· Fixed – permanent or long term placements providing for connectivity and data egress; particularly in dense urban environments

· Mobile – deployable for situational awareness at locations providing for connectivity and data egress as required to support events or situations; man portable or small footprint may be required to support operations in highly mobile environments

· Vehicle – capability to use multiple vehicles to augment communication links and provide access points for data egress and the ability to transition between network mesh deployments;

· Ad hoc – rapidly deployable short-term implementations, such as large capacity public venues, missions such as stadiums/arenas, or wide-area venues such as marathons or multi-site events in challenging RF environments, particularly in dense urban environments Components of the Tactical Mesh/MANET radio solution should complement a variety of deployment uniforms (e.g., low profile, covert, and overt).

Applicable Documents

· Tactical Mesh/Mobile Ad hoc Network Requirements Document Requirements The Contractor shall furnish the necessary equipment, supplies, and materials that meet the Tactical Mesh/MANET requirements identified in the SOW and the Tactical Mesh/MANET Requirements Document. The Tactical Mesh/MANET solution must be modular in design with proposed components providing secure egress of streaming video, audio and other surveillance data for situational awareness and evidentiary purposes. The Tactical Mesh/MANET solution should integrate with other IP-based systems for data backhaul. The solution and design should be capable to managing bandwidth for independent delivery of data from multiple entry points. The solution and design must be able to ensure secure, robust transmission of data through a self-healing network ensuring delivery to collection location(s). The vendor shall provide schedule of planned releases.

The solution should provide multiple input/output (MIMO) ports for integration to receive data wirelessly form various sensors while simultaneously transmitting data over the tactical mesh. The solution should support sending and receiving data wirelessly from sensors that transmit data over Wi-Fi (through either embedded Wi-Fi or attached dongle). The solution should support multiple interfaces such as wireless, wired and internet protocol (IP) and physical integration with land mobile radio (LMR) systems. The solution should be equipped with wireless transmitters and receivers using antennas. The solution should support a variety of antennas implementations: Omni-directional (broadcast), highly-directional (point-to-point), steerable, or combinations of antennas.

The vendor shall support training for technical and non-technical end users. The vendor shall support training and documentation on installation and configuration of hardware and software. The vendor shall provide training, documentation and support for software and hardware troubleshooting. The vendor shall capability to provide training using:

· Classroom centralized or at local offices.

· Remote instruction via online training to local offices.

· Video instruction.

The vendor shall provide maintenance and support plan and cost:

· Normal business hour (explain business hours)

· Define normal and off hour support for problem escalation

· Hardware and software must not be end of life or end of support for 5 years post purchase.

· Provide maintenance and update of hardware and software post purchase.

· Support performance of remotely updating components without requiring personnel to retrieve components.

The following subparagraphs describe the materials that shall be required under the contract.

Parts and Supplies The Contractor shall provide commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) parts and supplies (hardware and software) that meet the requirements identified in the SOW and the Tactical Mesh/Mobile Ad hoc Network Requirements Document. The Contractor shall obtain and convey appropriate warranties and data rights on the acquired COTS parts and supplies to be delivered to the Government.

Technology Refresh The Contractor shall be responsible for introducing new hardware and software to their catalog as soon as it is commercially available.

The Contractor will notify the Government of all warranties as part of the IDIQ proposal and individual Task Order quotes. If changes occur after the Task Order award, the Contractor will notify the Government of any warranties applicable to new equipment introduced.

Start of Warranty Period The warranty period shall start at the time of Government acceptance of an operational system. The warranty period for parts and supplies shipped as part of equipment only Task Order shall start upon signed receipt of the equipment at destination. Operation and Maintenance performed by non-Government personnel, when approved by vendor, shall not void, or in any way affect, the manufacturer’s warranties for the parts and supplies provided under this IDIQ.

Equipment Accountability The Contractor shall provide support with the receipt, tracking, inventory, issue, and monitoring of all material, equipment, technical data, and logistic support items throughout the period of performance of this contract.
