The Government intends to award a single Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract.

The relative importance of each factor is as follows: Technical Proposal, and Price are listed in descending order of their importance. The Government’s technical evaluation team shall evaluate offers on an acceptable or unacceptable basis. An “Unacceptable” rating will render the entire quote unacceptable and, therefore, unawardable. Technically acceptable is defined as providing a plan that is acceptable to the government that meets or exceeds the requirements, IAW the Statement of Work.

If acceptable, the evaluation will stop at that point and award will made to the lowest priced technically acceptable offeror. If unacceptable, the Government will continue to review proposals in order of price until evaluating one that is technically acceptable and eligible for award.

Description/Specifications/Statement of Work

Statement of Work for FY23CRG Communications Interim Solution - MILSATCOM

1. General The FY23 USAF Expeditionary Center (EC) Campaign Plan charges Contingency Response (CR) forces to be ready to operate in the Tier-3 threat environment by 2024. In order to operate in a contested environment, enable Mobility Air Force Agile Combat Employment, and address critical capability gaps listed in the Air Mobility Command (AMC)'s Rapid Global Mobility Capability Gaps Memorandum, AMC must make immediate investments in communications solutions for CR forces. As "first-in" forces providing the Open the Airbase Force Element, CR require reliable, redundant systems that ensure Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) communications with command-and-control (C2) elements and secure line of sight (LOS) communications between teams on the ground. Current systems are outdated, no longer function reliably, and lack modern technological advances required to create a meshed network between nodes. While long-term enterprise replacements are being analyzed, the 621st and 821st Contingency Response Groups (CRGs) identified interim solutions to bridge acute capability gaps while advancing command level initiatives.

These solutions have been socialized with AMC/A6, AMC/A34, AMC/CIG, and 618 AOC.

2. Objectives This requirement is to procure two (2) Military Satellite Communication (MILSATCOM) terminals with the option to procure four (4) additional MILSATCOM terminals as a replacement for the GATR antenna included in the Small Communications Package. The current transport solution for MILSATCOM, GATR's 2.4m Antenna System, has several single points of failure without an organic maintenance capability in the 621st Contingency Response Wing (621 CRW). The CRG supports replacing this antenna with a modernized antenna system that offers auto-track and auto- acquisition capability, a smaller form factor, eliminates GATRs technical shortfalls, and enables a faster set up time while, remains compatible with Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) and Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) waveforms, and operates on X band, Ka band, and Ku band satellite frequencies.

3. Scope of Work This equipment will be used for the 621 CRW operations, on base and various locations around the world for deployments, trainings, and exercises.

The vendor will provide the equipment to modernize the unit's MILSATCOM Small Communications Package. The 621 CRW will be responsible for maintaining the accountability of this equipment.

4. Personnel The vendor will provide delivery and training for this item. The maintenance, accountability, and operation of this equipment will be the responsibility of the CRG Combined Communications Work Center.

5. Equipment Requirements and peripheral shall meet or exceed the specs of:

a. MIL-STD-810

b. Less than 8 transit cases for all equipment

c. Transportable using Commercial Air

d. 1.2 or 1.3 Meter Flyaway Base Terminal:

Flyaway Base Terminal X, Ku, and Ka capable 1.2m or 1.3m Carbon fiber reflector Motorized Auto-track, Auto acquire controller with GPS, Compass, DVB receiver, Spectrum Analyzer with Beacon Mode Back-up manual pointing

e. X-band module WGS Certified RF Configuration X-band interchangeable Feed

f. Ka-band module WGS Certified RF Configuration Ka-band interchangeable Feed

g. Ku-band module Ku-band interchangeable Feed

h. Modem and Controller WGS Certified Supports both FDMA and TDMA waveform Auto-track, Auto acquire controller with GPS, Compass, DVB receiver, Spectrum Analyzer with Beacon Mode

6. Deliverables Delivery shall occur within 120 days of award. Items will be verified upon delivery.

Prior to project acceptance, the contractor shall provide the customer with all manufacturer warranties as needed for any component incorporated into this project such as equipment manuals, literature, CDs and DVDs and other documentation on all equipment. Prior to project acceptance, the contractor shall provide written procedures, points of contact within company, and required information for all warranty services prior to project acceptance. This information shall include written confirmation of the warranty period, phone numbers and contact information/procedures for technical support, troubleshooting assistance, and replacement of faulty equipment.

As used in this clause, the total amount payable by the Government in the event of termination of applicable contract line item(s) for convenience includes costs, profit, and estimated termination settlement costs for those item(s).

(c) Notwithstanding the dates specified in the allotment schedule in paragraph (j) of this clause, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in writing at least ninety days prior to the date when, in the Contractor's best judgment, the work will reach the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract for performance of the applicable item(s). The notification will state (1) the estimated date when that point will be reached and (2) an estimate of additional funding, if any, needed to continue performance of applicable line items up to the next scheduled date for allotment of funds identified in paragraph (j) of this clause, or to a mutually agreed upon substitute date.

This clause no longer applies once the contract is fully funded except with regard to the rights or obligations of the parties concerning equitable adjustments negotiated under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause.
