The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division intends to issue a solicitation for a sole source, follow-on, single award, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract on a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) basis with Applied Systems Engineering Incorporated (ASEI) to continue in the procurement of needed hardware, in addition to the evaluation and repair efforts of various Advanced Tactical Navigator (ATACNAV) units that are damaged, upgrading existing ATACNAV units to either a Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) ATACNAV or a SAASM-High Accuracy (HA) ATACNAV as required, and supporting test and integration events.
