1.0. Scope.

The CARTS ID/IQ contracts will provide for the basic production, engineering studies, designs, construction, integration services, logistics support and technical data for the Department of Defense, and other Government agencies including state/local government entities for the procurement, development, and/or fielding of range instrumentation systems/infrastructures and Future Army System of Integrated Targets (FASIT) and non-FASIT target systems and components. This Statement of Work delineates the types of work efforts to be included in the CARTS ID/IQ contracts. This Statement of Work is broken down into several key conceptual areas:

a. Production: This allows for the fabrication and purchase of individual FASIT and non-FASIT components (presentation devices, special engagement devices, range effects devices, engagement scoring devices, representation devices, and auxiliary range items) to support the requirements of a training range.

b. Systems Engineering/Integration: These efforts allow for the installation and integration of the FASIT and non-FASIT components into integrated systems, technical studies and prototyping of conceptual designs, and minor construction/modification of range facilities in support of FASIT and non-FASIT component fielding and integration. These efforts range from the installation of basic training ranges to advanced simulation and instrumentation equipment to experimentation support of training ranges.

c. Logistics and Technical Data: These efforts include all aspect of life cycle product support, to include new equipment training, mission support, technical data packages, spares, and consumables.

The general concept for the CARTS ID/IQ is to provide a contractual vehicle to support the fabrication, integration, deployment, and maintenance of components in support of training ranges, both as integral components of larger ranges, or integrated entireties of smaller ranges.

1.1. CARTS IDIQ Goals.

The goals for the CARTS ID/IQ contracting effort are to:

· Assist customers in obtaining operations or supporting their training range objectives

· To create common architecture and components that allows cross integration (both with respect to logistic support and commonality and compatibility between fielded systems)

· To produce common products that are supportable in the long term

· To produce common products that are supported through a common source
