1.1 Scope
The RFCM program will improve AC-130J and MC-130J aircraft system survivability and the capability to detect, identify, locate, deny, degrade, deceive, disrupt, and defeat threat systems in operational environments applicable to the AC/MC-130J missions. The contractor shall design, develop, integrate, test, manufacture, and sustain (through Interim Contractor Support [ICS]) an RFCM System (Group A and Group B) to satisfy the performance requirements defined in the “System Requirements Document (SRD) for AC/MC-130J RFCM” when installed on AC-130J and MC-130J aircraft. The RFCM statement of work (SOW) defines the efforts required to develop, test, produce, and sustain (through ICS) the RFCM system for United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM).
1.2 Contract Objectives
The Government may award multiple contract(s) with multiple options to contractors that shall have the responsibility to manage, execute, and support the development, test, production, and sustainment of an RFCM system. The contracts and contract option types shall be aligned to meet the specific requirements of the contracts and options.
1.3 Contract Structure
The RFCM contract consists of Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) followed sequentially by Production and Sustainment.
EMD: In EMD the contractor shall design and develop the RFCM system, complete full system integration, develop affordable and executable manufacturing processes, fabricate the system, and test and evaluate the system to include providing support during Government Developmental Test (DT) and Operational Test (OT). EMD is comprised of System Design (the basic contract) and Integration & Test (I&T) (Option 1). Production, including Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and Sustainment may be exercised prior to completion of EMD.
The requirements for EMD are delineated in paragraphs 3.1 (System Design) and 3.2 (I&T) of this Statement of Work. Paragraph 3.1 further delineates those requirements that must be complied with throughout the life of the Basic Contract and all Options.
System Design / Basic Contract: System Design is initiated with the award of the basic contract. The basic contract includes the system design with a Period of Performance (PoP) of 12 months and includes Critical Design Review (CDR). System Design shall include a Critical Technology Demonstration (CTD) in a requisite simulated threat environment. The Government may award up to two (2) contracts to initiate System Design.
Options
The contractor shall propose the following options to complete the RFCM program:
1. Option 1 (paragraph 3.2) shall be I&T and commences once a single contractor is downselected. I&T shall complete the remaining post-CDR activities and extend through completion of EMD.
2. Option 2 (paragraph 3.3) is an option for the Government to purchase no less than Government Purpose Rights (GPR) from the contractor for RFCM-related technical data that was developed exclusively at the contractor’s expense. This Option is only viable if the contractor has offered these rights for sale to the Government.
3. Option 3 (paragraph 3.4) shall consist of the design, development, assembly, and delivery of a System Integration Laboratory (SIL) to Robins Air Force Base (RAFB), GA.
Production: Initiated as Options at the discretion of the Government in conjunction with or upon completion of EMD. It includes options for Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and Full Rate Production (FRP):
1. Option 4 (paragraph 4.1) shall be LRIP.
2. Option 5 (paragraph 4.2) shall be FRP.
Sustainment: Initiated as Options at the discretion of the Government in conjunction with or upon the completion of Production. The RFCM Sustainment includes options for ICS, organic Depot stand-up/activation and delivery of a non-restricted Technical Data Package (TDP), and shall consist of all activities required to develop the capability to sustain fielded and installed RFCM Systems. The contractor shall propose the following Sustainment Options to complete a RFCM proposal / program:
1. Option 6 (paragraph 5.1) shall consist of ICS for a period of two (2) years following the first deployed installation of an RFCM equipped MC-130J aircraft.
2. Option 7 (paragraph 5.2) shall include all activities required to stand-up and activate an organic Depot-level support capability.
3. Option 8 (paragraph 6) shall be the delivery of the TDP and other engineering data to include the information required to enable organic, Government support, sustainment, and production of the RFCM system.
