The United States Navy, Naval Information Warfare Systems Command

Communications, Computers and Intelligence (PEO C4I) Communication and GPS
Navigation Program Office (PMW/A 170) has determined only one responsible source can
meet the Government's requirements and intends to extend the current sole source
contract with no increase in cost/ceiling for Environmental Satellite Receiver Processor
(ESRP) to Raytheon Technical Services Company (RTSC), located at 6125 East 21st
Street, Indianapolis, Indiana. RTSC is the current OEM vendor providing specialized
expertise and hardware to the ESRP program. The ESRP program uses the AN/FMQ-17

Meteorology and Oceanography personnel to support mission planning and execution in
all warfare areas. To meet this requirement, vendors must have subject matter
expertise, technical capabilities, and facilities to produce and sustain shipboard systems
(AN/SMQ-11) and shore systems (AN/FMQ-17). The total period of performance will be
10 years from award date (31 January 2017). This announcement provides information
that assists with subcontracting possibilities. The North American Industry Classification
System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 541330 (with a Small Business Size
Standard of $15M).

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals or a solicitation of offers.
However, if a company believes it can perform the requirements identified above without
negative schedule, performance, and/or cost impacts, the company shall provide a
statement of its capabilities within 15 calendar days of the release date of this notice.
