LEP PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Sharon Baker PMA202, LEP Integrated Product Team Lead (IPTL)

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUND

LEP is designed to reduce damage to the eye from a variety of laser threats. Threats to the aircrew come from both unintentional friendly sources and unfriendly sources. Aircraft and pilot lasing incidents are increasing, with the majority of the incidents occurring at night during aircraft takeoff and landing. Additionally, lasing of aircraft and pilots is becoming an issue for the public sector and can potentially become a threat during routine use of public/commercial facilities.

NAVAIR has been tasked by Naval Operations (OPNAV) to design, produce, and deploy a multiple wavelength threat spectacles for Navy and Marine fixed- and rotary-wing aircrew.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The LEP Threat Spectacles will provide protection from known and emerging laser threats and be compatible with aircrew Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE).

LEP Threat Spectacles Program is anticipated to be designated as an Abbreviated Acquisition Program (AAP).

LEP Threat Spectacles Program is Pre-Milestone B with the anticipated Milestone B decision in FY16/Q4.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION CONTINUED

Inventory Objective for LEP Threat Spectacles Program is 3,500 spectacles to outfit all platforms

Multi-phase Developmental Test (DT) of LEP Spectacles will focus on verifying requirements for all Aircraft Platforms

REQUIREMENTS OVERVIEW (PROGRAM MANAGEMENT)

First Article Testing Laser protection, prismatic deviation, power, distortion, transmission, transmittance, and visibility

Production Lot Testing Laser protection, haze, transmission, transmittance, and visibility

LEP LOGISTICS

Gary Stroud PMA202, LEP Deputy Assistant Program Manager Logistics

REQUIREMENTS OVERVIEW (LOGISTICS)

Maintenance Planning Maintenance Planning (MP) is the process conducted to establish or evolve the maintenance concept into detailed set of procedures to sustain a system for its lifetime.

Level of Repair Analysis (LORA) is conducted on an iterative basis throughout the life cycle to arrive at a maintenance concept that is effective, yet economical.

Maintenance Task Analysis (MTA) is the identification of the steps, spares and materials, tools, support equipment, personnel skills and facilities issues that must be considered for a given repair task.

Support Equipment The Original Equipment Manufacturer shall design and develop the system which keeps Support Equipment requirements for test, maintenance, assembly, servicing, handling to a minimum. Existing Support Equipment shall be utilized to the maximum extent where possible, minimizing the requirement for new Support Equipment development.

Technical Manual Source Data with Illustrations/Drawings Source data shall include data required to accomplish repair actions at each level of authorized maintenance to include theory of operation, troubleshooting, fault isolation, preventative maintenance, scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, and parts breakdown with illustrations and/or drawings of the system and it components.

Supply Support

Provisioning Provides all provisioning data required to ensure future supply support determined by Naval Supply.

Provisioning Parts List (PPL) Includes all items (prime, vendors, U.S. Government Standards and Industry Standards contained in equipment).

Interim Support Items List (ISIL) The ISIL shall contain the recommended items and quantities determined to be required for removal and replacement between the Initial Operational Capability (IOC) date and Material Support Date (MSD). The national stock number assigned to ISIL approved items shall be considered as new peculiar items to the end item for the purposes of Maintenance Planning and during subsequent provisioning screening efforts until final provisioning technical data and engineering data for provisioning delivery. The required data elements, which are defined in Appendix B of MIL-PRF-49506, are the minimum data requirements for the ISIL.

Post Production Report Post-production support consists of both management and support activities necessary to ensure continued attainment of readiness and supportability objectives with economical logistics support, after cessation of production for the acquisition, or modification, of a major system or equipment.

Understanding the importance of each factor is key.

Potential Technical

- Rating Definitions -

RatingDescription
BlueOutstandingProposal meets requirements and indicates an exceptional approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal contains multiple strengths and no deficiencies.
PurpleGoodProposal meets requirements and indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal contains at least one strength and no deficiencies.
GreenAcceptableProposal meets requirements and indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. Proposal has no strengths or deficiencies.
YellowMarginalProposal does not clearly meet requirements and has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements.
RedUnacceptableProposal does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies and is unawardable.

Technical Ratings: The rating assignments reflect the Government's assessment of the offeror’s technical solution for meeting the Government’s requirement.

Technical Risk Definitions

RatingDescription
LowHas little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome any difficulties.
ModerateCan potentially cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring will likely be able to overcome difficulties.
HighIs likely to cause significant disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Is unlikely to overcome any difficulties, even with special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring.

Technical Risk Ratings: The risk rating assignments reflect the Government’s assessment of the potential for disruption of schedule, increased costs, degradation of performance, the need for increased Government oversight, or the likelihood of unsuccessful contract performance.

Past Performance Confidence Assessment Definitions

RatingDescription
Substantial ConfidenceBased on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
Satisfactory ConfidenceBased on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
Limited ConfidenceBased on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.
No ConfidenceBased on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the Offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.
Unknown Confidence (Neutral)No recent/relevant performance record is available or the Offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

Past Performance Confidence Assessment Rating: Reflects the Government’s confidence that the Offeror will successfully perform the solicitation’s requirements based on the Offeror’s relevant past performance and systemic improvement.

RatingDescription
Substantial ConfidenceBased on the Offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the Offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Summary The Source Selection process will assure that your proposal will receive a fair and consistent evaluation and selection.

Keys to Developing a Good Proposal:

Understand the solicitation requirements Understand the Evaluation Criteria (RFP Section M) will help you know where to place emphasis in your proposal Follow the Proposal Instructions (RFP Section L) – Provide material where requested, i.e., keep Past Performance and Corporate Experience material out of Technical Volume

Provide a proposal that helps the Government perform its independent analysis and provides high confidence in the proposed solution and contract performance plan.
