1.0 Introduction. The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Special Communications Mission Solutions (SCMS) Division (AD-4.11.4), located at St. Inigoes, MD, integrates and delivers products for Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Combat Systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) systems. SCMS leverages the AD-4.11.4 Special Communication Rapid Integration Facility (SCRIF) to provide rapid integration for C5ISR systems onboard small and large craft, commercial and militarized vehicles, transit cases, mobile communications, fixed base stations, command centers and intelligence systems. SCMS must quickly respond to urgent mission-essential user requirements to ensure that forward-deployed units are combat ready. These C5ISR products are funded by a broad range of customers including NAVAIR, Special Operations Forces (SOF), Homeland Security, and other DOD and non-DOD agencies. To complete these products, the SCMS Division maintains subject matter expertise in a broad range of technical and programmatic disciplines associated with production engineering and management of the SCRIF. The designated Government Project Lead (GPL) will be responsible for all Project Management and Systems Engineering aspects of the project and selects and leads the Integrated Project Team (IPT) for project completion. The GPL will utilize this contract to obtain the specific technical and production expertise available at the SCRIF to meet requirements needed to complete each assigned project.

1.1 Scope. The contractor shall provide SCRIF production engineering, integration and installation support for the development, assimilation/kitting, verification, logistics support, in-service support, and program planning of C5ISR systems, subsystems, and equipment.
