This document – Mobile Surveillance Capabilities Matrix (MSCM) – identifies the range of capabilities required by this solicitation. This table includes columns defined as follows.

• “Factor” to describe the capability category (grouping of similar capabilities).

• “MSC System Capability, Subfactor” to describe a capability that the acceptable system will provide or possess.

• “Parameter” to describe the specific standards and conditions the capability (subfactor) will be evaluated against.

• “Threshold Acceptable Value” to describe the minimum level of the capability’s parameters acceptable for system deployment and operations. Any Offeror’s offered solution (proposal) failing to meet any single threshold acceptable value will not be considered, which means that proposal will be rejected.

• “Nominal Desired Value (Objective),” to describe the desired (at a minimum) level of the capability’s parameters for enhanced system deployment and operations.

• “Offeror Proposed Value” reserved for offerors to provide in submittals.

The Capabilities Matrix includes terms defined as follows:

• AC: Alternating Current

• Ao = Operational Availability = Uptime/Total Time.

Where “Uptime” is the time during which the system was capable of performing all required functions in a given calendar interval; and “Total Time” is the total time during which the system was supposed to be up during a given calendar interval (Total Time = Uptime + Downtime). Source: Paragraph 3.2.4.3, DOD Guide for Achieving Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability, August 3, 2005 (http://www.acq.osd.mil/sse/docs/RAM_Guide_080305.pdf).

• Average Size Human: 0.5 square meter RCS, and optical/visual equivalent.

• Basic Maintenance Service: Please see section of‐this‐title within the MSC Statement of

Objectives (SOO) document.

• Downtime, as used in the Ao Operational Availability definition, includes the time:

o For platform preparation (connecting safety devices, external power, air conditioning, support equipment etc.) to conduct maintenance.

o For maintenance instruction consultation o During which maintenance is being performed o During which a maintenance action is awaiting parts, personnel, or equipment o Diagnostic time (time to detect and isolate failure) o To repair (in‐place repair or removal and replacement of the failed item) o Required to validate the repair (e.g., functional check) o Due to administrative and other logistics delays o For transportation of unit to/from repair station if required.

Specific Level 3 Maintenance Tasks and schedules are to be defined by the Supplier in the ILSP document. CBP expects most maintenance to be performed at Level 1 or Level 2. CBP anticipates that Level 3 maintenance will be extremely rare.

• Level 1 Maintenance Locations and Facilities: Level 1 maintenance will be performed by CBP personnel or support contractors in the field at the surveillance site. The locations will typically be remote, unimproved, and far from paved roads. No facilities such as electrical power or water will be provided at the Level 1 site. Any special tools required for Level 1 maintenance shall be supplied with and attached to the MSC system (via robust enclosures or restraints) so that the tools are readily available.

• Level 2 Maintenance Locations and Facilities: Level 2 maintenance will be performed at a Border Patrol Station or at a Border Patrol Sector Headquarters. Facilities may be limited to an unpaved parking lot, without access to electrical power or water. The maintainer must supply onsite all necessary labor, instrumentation, spare parts, consumable items, expendable items, lifts, jacks, winches, electricity, and water.

The MSC has the ability for ease of LRU/FRU replacement, for ease of maintenance

LRU/FRUs are mounted and placed so as to allow for their removal and replacement with common/non‐specialized hand tools.

By design, removal and replacement process precludes the necessity for re‐ alignment or re‐orientation of the components.

The MSC has the capability for on‐board self diagnostics (OBD), for operational supportability

The self‐diagnostic capability stores information about malfunctions that have occurred and perhaps temporarily disappeared. When recalled from the memory, this information can help the service technician diagnose and repair the system more quickly, accurately, and reliably.

The MSC has the capability to perform fault isolation functions, for operational supportability

In the case of a failure, the test aids in fault isolation by reporting the possible cause(s) of failure. The fault isolation capability varies depending on the nature of the fault and the system configuration

Operator’s work space is protected from the elements and temperature.

Operator’s work space has good ergonomics including seating suitable for working an eight to twelve hour shift at the operator workstation.

Operator’s work space provides physical enclosure, cooling, heating, and lighting suitable for working an eight to twelve hour shift at operator workstation within the ambient outdoor conditions described in the document Mobile Surveillance Capabilities – Environmental Objectives

(MSCEO).

Operator’s work space provides any/all window shading or tinting necessary to ensure visibility of computer displays when external sunlight is bright and intense as described in the document Mobile Surveillance Capabilities – Environmental Objectives (MSCEO).

Operator’s work space does not draw electrical power or heat or cooling from GFE assets

Operator’s work space provides ready access (access without operator leaving his/her seat) to a GFE Motorola Astro® Spectra™ or Astro® XLT™ 5000 Land Mobile Radio (LMR) operating at 25 to 110 Watts transmitter power and at 136‐174 MHz.

Offeror to propose solution and any metrics appropriate for their solution.

Offeror may propose to provide a suitable work space enclosure within offeror’s MSC product. If so, the offeror’s solution must facilitate the integration of a GFE Motorola Astro® Spectra™ or Astro® XLT™ 5000 LMR and associated antenna operating at 25 to 110 Watts transmitter power and at 136‐174 MHz, and must supply electrical power and physical mounting provisions for that LMR.

Alternately, offeror may propose to integrate a suitable work space within the cabin of a GFE truck that the Government will procure under GSA schedule. The GFE truck will be of the grade generally known as Ford F‐450 or GMC C4500, or equivalent. Note: Offeror is advised that CBP cannot guarantee a particular brand/manufacturer of truck, only this particular grade. If the offeror chooses to integrate a suitable work space within the cabin of a GFE truck, the offeror may not rely on the GFE truck’s engine as a source of power for MSC operation. The offeror’s solution must supply heat, cooling, and electrical power to the operator’s work space consistent with the needs of the MSC mission and environment.

Additionally, the offeror’s solution must supply electrical power to the LMR. When stowed, the offeror’s solution may not prohibit the normal use and driving of the truck. The offeror’s integrated solution may use the area behind the driver and passenger seats, and may use the passenger’s seat, including re‐mounting the passenger seat facing rearward so as to face offeror’s workstation equipment and displays. The integrated solution must comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including those for motor vehicles operated on US Highways.

MSC supports close proximity site security by alerting operator when persons, vehicles, or large animals approach the operator’s work space.

If offeror’s solution is capable of being carried by a lighter grade of truck, please advise, but offeror’s solution is required to be compatible with the stated grade of GFE truck. If offeror chooses to propose to integrate offeror’s solution with a GFE truck, offeror is to assume that the truck will be purchased without a bed, and the offeror is to provide and integrate a truck bed if appropriate to their solution, or otherwise to mount offeror’s solution directly to the truck frame (without bed). The integrated solution must comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including those for motor vehicles operated on US Highways.

If offeror chooses to propose a solution mounted on an all‐terrain‐vehicle or other off‐road‐ only vehicle, offeror nevertheless must supply their solution with provisions for towing behind or carrying upon the stated grade of GFE truck in a manner compliant with all applicable laws and regulations, including those for motor vehicles operated on US Highways.
