1.0 BACKGROUND

The Technical Insertion (TI) program has its origins in 2004 under the management of Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS) 6.0 as an enterprise approach across surface Navy combat systems to introduce powerful display, processing, and storage as part of a general thrust to achieve a modular and open architecture design. In 2012, management of the Technical Insertion 12 (TI12) initiative transitioned to PEO IWS 1.0, where it became an integral part of the Aegis Modernization (AMOD) and new construction Guided Missile Destroyer (DDG) programs and continued to serve other surface ship combat system requirements as well. In 2015, the enterprise approach continued with Technical Insertion 16 (TI16) in order to introduce the latest commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) and open architecture design for Navy Combat Systems in the 2018 timeframe.

2.0 SCOPE

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the efforts required for lifecycle sustainment of the TI16 equipment. This includes the limited manufacture, assembly, and testing of TI16 equipment spares; associated engineering services, obsolescence management, procurement, and installation of Ordnance Alteration (ORDALT) Kits and related products for the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD), Port Hueneme California. NSWC PHD is a field activity of Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) and is the In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) for the TI16 suite of equipment.

The TI16 program has expanded from a modernization effort for Aegis in-service platforms to DDGs, including new construction, modernization, and Foreign Military Sales (FMS); Ship Self Defense System (SSDS) platforms, including Aircraft Carriers (Nuclear-Propulsion) (CVNs), Amphibious Assault Ships (LHAs), and Landing Ship Docks (LSDs); Aircraft Carrier Tactical Support System (CV-TSC), Surface Electronic Warfare Improvement Program (SEWIP), Littoral Combat Ship (LCS), and Frigate (FFG). It is important to note that this is not an all-inclusive list. Throughout the duration of the contract, additional programs, program offices, platforms, and sites may require support.
