About this opportunity
This solicitation seeks proposals to design, develop, integrate, test and deliver up to 25 microwave measurement receivers with operating frequencies of 26.5 GHz and 50 GHz. The Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright Patterson Air Force Base is procuring these receivers to support testing and evaluation activities. Proposals are due by September 15, 2020 and will be evaluated based on technical merit and price, with technical capability being significantly more important than price. Award is anticipated within 90 days of the proposal due date for a period of performance of 24 months from award.
There is no set-aside designation. The primary NAICS code is 334515 and PSC code is 6625. The incumbent equipment being replaced was purchased in 2005 from Keysight. Pricing must be provided for engineering services and up to 25 production units to be delivered to multiple locations listed in the solicitation over the 24 month contract period. First unit deliveries are required within 180 days of award with production units delivered within 90 days of acceptance and optional units within 90 days of exercise order.

* A request for an extension to the solicitation deadline because of COVID-19/remote working issues has been received. The response date for receipt of proposals has been extended until 11/16/2020, 2:00 PM Eastern. All other solicitation requirements remain unchanged.
21 September 2020 - additional questons received and answered as follows:
* QUESTION 1) Cybersecurity of Measuring Receivers - Applicability of DoD Memorandum on Implementation of Microsoft Windows 10 Secure Host Baseline: QUESTION: Does the DoD Memorandum on Implementation of Microsoft Windows 10 Secure Host Baseline (see https://bit.ly/31gdPBc), which requires a TPM (Trusted Platform Module) per STIG V-63323 (see https://bit.ly/3gk1bp5) for enhanced cybersecurity, apply to this procurement?
Answer: No, if the Windows 10 is embedded into instrument and it WILL NOT be on the AFNET domain. If using an external computer/controller then yes, it would and you would need to use the latest SDC build or meet the specs for the build.
*QUESTION 2) Desirability of 26.5 to 50 GHz Field Upgradability - QUESTION: Is field upgradeability from 26.5 to 50 GHz desireable and will it be considered as part of the evaluation criteria for Best Value?
Answer: Upgradability will not be considered as part of the Best Value criteria. At the beginning of the acquisition process AFMETCAL conducted site surveys for the 65 measurement laboratories that these units would be placed at. Part of the site survey was to determine the top frequency range needed at each location. This is driven by mission requirements at each Air Force base. The quantities of 26.5 & 50 GHz units is based upon the information from the site survey. Historically with our previous MMR we didn’t see these requirements change very often, as a result it is not being considered as part of the Best Value criterea.
*QUESTION: 3) Can you please update this file to be a single, flattened PDF so it's more readily accessible?
ANSWER: DD 1423’s have been uploaded as individual files.
18 September 2020 - questions received as follows:
- Question: Will other OEMs be considered in this bid or does it need to be a Keysight instrument?
Answer: All qualified proposals will be evaluated regardless of OEM.
- Question: Will Used or Refurbished instruments be considered?
Answer: The government will not consider reconditioned or remanufactured units due to the 10-year product support (Commercial Warranty) plan and configuration control reasons.
