Section A - Solicitation/Contract Form

MINIMUM/MAXIMUM

MIN/MAX DESCRIPTION

This RFP is for an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for supplies and incidental services over a 5 year ordering period. The Government may issue Delivery Orders on a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) or Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) basis The minimum contract value is $2,500.00. There are NO orders guaranteed above the stated minimum.

Contract Minimum. The contract minimum amount is $2500.00.

Contract Maximum. The maximum (total) dollar value is $500M.

Dollar Values have been included for each basic contract CLIN for purposes of the Government procurement systems ONLY. There are no minimum or maximum dollar values established at the CLIN level for this contract.

To facilitate Delivery Order execution the items listed in the solicitation for Accessories/Spare Parts, Training, Repairs and Pre-Planned Improvements (P3I) outlined within Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs 0003, 0004,0005 and 0006) have been structured within contract Exhibits A-D as Exhibit Line Item Numbers (ELINs).

Pricing listed at the CLINS and ELINs are for the following time frames:

Year 1 pricing – 1 April 2015 to 30 March 2016

Year 2 pricing – 1 April 2016 to 30 March 2017

Year 3 pricing - 1 April 2017 to 30 March 2018

Year 4 pricing – 1 April 2018 to 30 March 2019

Year 5 pricing – 1 April 2019 to 30 March 2020

All hardware CLINs shall be ordered by using the ordering range unit prices on a per order basis and are not cumulative unless the hardware CLINs are ordered within a 30 day period (window). Identical CLINs ordered may be priced at the cumulative quantity price for the appropriate range ordered within a 30-day period. As an example, if the Government ordered 40 STC HH Radio Systems (CLIN 0001) on April 1st, and then ordered an additional 20 STC HH Radio Systems on April 25th, the price per unit would be based on the cumulative quantity of 60 Radios ordered from that price range. If there is a price break at quantity 50, then the entire 60 would receive the 50 quantity price. The Government may apply the credit due for the reduction of the 1st order price as 1) a delivery order modification to the first order or 2) as a one-time reduction to the second order pricing. Please note that if a third order is placed on May 15th, it would not qualify for the cumulative quantity pricing because the 30-day window started on April 1st (even though the third order was less than 30 days after the second order). In this case, the third order starts a new 30-day window. The arrangement applies to pricing only and not to the delivery schedule requirements. Each order's delivery dates will be calculated on a stand-alone basis.

STATEMENT OF WORK

SOF TACTICAL COMMUNICATIONS

HANDHELD RADIO

1.0 Scope. United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) requires a next generation handheld (HH) radio system capable of two simultaneous channel operation with one channel supporting narrowband waveforms and the other supporting a wideband Mobile Ad Hoc Networking Waveform (MANET). The requirement is derived from the Special Operations Forces (SOF) Tactical Communications (STC) Capabilities Production Document (CPD). The STC next generation Handheld radio shall also include an embedded Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and be capable of attaching to various Mission Modules (MM) supporting various capabilities such as; Full Motion Video (FMV) receive, Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) for force protection, 4G/LTE, Netted Iridium, other MANET waveforms (specifically Wave Relay and Tactical Scalable MANET) and other Pre-Planned Product Improvements (P3I) as identified in the Governments STC HH Performance Specification. The STC HH will replace legacy single channel handheld radios such as the AN/PRC-148(V)1/2/5/6, AN/PRC-152, AN/PRC-152A and the two channel AN/PRC-148B. The STC HH will include SOF unique capabilities including the enhanced Collection of Broadcasts from Remote Assets (eCOBRA) for Blue Force Tracking (BFT), the Demand Assigned Multiple Access (DAMA) Integrated Waveform (IW) for UHF Satellite Communications (SATCOM), select Advanced Special Communications Modes (ASCM) and two Electronic Counter-Counter Measures (ECCM) waveforms.

The purpose of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to clearly define the requirements for this IDIQ contract. Specific delivery orders will be issued as outlined within Section H of the basic contract, Delivery Order Procedures. This SOW defines the requirements needed to conduct a Capital Equipment Replacement Program (CERP) to replace the legacy handheld radios with the STC HH. The effort shall include:

· Program Management and Configuration Management and Control

· Systems Engineering to include possible software design/development, testing and production

· Integrated Logistics Support Requirements

· Operational and Depot Level Maintenance

· Technical Data and Reporting

· Training

1.1 Concept of Operations. The STC HH provides SOF teams with the ability to communicate on user selected frequencies from 30 to 2500 megahertz (MHz) utilizing a two channel handheld radio with embedded Communications Security (COMSEC). All variants of the HH shall include the necessary hardware and firmware to allow for P3Is identified in the STC HH Performance Specification and Contract be they waveform implementations through a flash memory software upgrade or through the use of Mission Modules. Deliveries shall be in accordance with (IAW) Section B of the contract. The Contractor shall perform the software upgrades, qualification testing and shall obtain National Security Agency (NSA) Type 1 certification.

1.1.1 Embedded COMSEC. The Contractor shall perform all work required to support full NSA Type 1 Certification utilizing Suite A and B encryption for the HH radio and its associated Mission Modules .

(CDRL A002)

3.0.2.3 Routine Software Updates. The contractor shall coordinate all software updates with the Government for approval prior to release and integration into any SOF unique radios. The Government has established a single website for the release of all tactical communications software and firmware updates or upgrades for all SOF users to obtain software updates or upgrades that have been approved by the Government for use. The Contractor shall not release any software updates for SOF-unique radios to any commercial website including its own website without express Government written approval. Such approval shall be on a case by case basis only.

4.0 Engineering Change Proposal. The Contractor shall prepare an ECP for Class I changes only, under the general guidance of MIL-HDBK-61A, for any changes to the approved Product Baseline or the initiation of any of the P3I. Class I and/or Class II ECP definitions shall be interpreted as defined in MIL-HDBK-61A. Class I ECPs shall require, at a minimum, a Revision or Part Number change to the radio dependent upon system impact to form, fit, function or cost.

Any requests for Deviations/Waiver DD Form1694 and Notice of Revision (NOR) (CDRL A003) shall be submitted through the Contracting Officer for Government review and approval. Drawing updates for such Revisions and/or Part Number changes shall be completed at the Contractor’s expense to include all technical documentation required by the Government. The Contractor shall provide ECPs via electronic mail for Government review and approval. (CDRL A002)

4.0.1 Class II Changes. For those changes not affecting form, fit, or function (i.e., parts substitution, changes not impacting contract/delivery schedule, or cost, etc.), the Government review of Class II changes during production will consist of a technical evaluation of the change and of material substitutions to support concurrence in classification recommendations. The Contractor assumes total risk for implementation of changes prior to notification of Government concurrence.

4.0.2 ECP Systems Engineering.
