A. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE / REQUIRED DELIVERY DATES

The Program Manager (PM) Supply & Maintenance Systems within the Logistics Combat Element Systems (LCES) Marine Corps Systems Command, is responsible for the research, analysis, acquisition, fielding, and lifecycle management of a wide range of test systems, equipment, tool sets, and Automatic Test Systems (ATS) equipment. Aging systems, spare parts shortages, and high operating tempo negatively impact the material readiness of the Fleet Marine Force. Long-term sustainability of the equipment is a continuing challenge requiring new initiatives to effectively address equipment wear, excessive age, and the rising cost of spares. As part of the Marine Corps Logistics Modernization efforts, the maintenance infrastructure has been evolving from one structured to support involvement in major theater wars to a much more agile and flexible maintenance capability designed to support limited engagements within simultaneous regional conflicts, peace keeping duties, and disaster or humanitarian relief. In keeping with this approach, Marine Corps ATS provides users with an organic, deployable capability to test a wide range of electronic and electro-optic systems and subsystems, enabling them to accurately and effectively troubleshoot and repair critical weapon systems as far forward as possible.

The Marine Corps has a requirement to sustain a significant number of tactical night vision devices that are currently fielded or in the process of being fielded to support operational units. In order to meet this sustainment requirement, the Marine Corps must procure and field an Organizational-Level test solution specifically designed for the Image-Intensified (I2) devices in the current inventory. Based on research, the ANV-126VS Automated Night Vision Test System is capable of meeting the requirement for O-Level test capability.

The Marine Corps requires the procurement and shipping/delivery of three (3) Automated Night Vision Test Systems (model# ANV-126VS) with the following accessories:

Qty 3 Model# ANV-126-170, AN/PVS-14 Adapter Kit Qty 3 Model# ANV-126-260, AN/PVS-31/31A Goggle Adapter Set Qty 3 Model# ANV-126-700, MX10160 Image Tube Tester

The period of performance shall be 6 months from date of award.
