The procurement also includes the design and development efforts for Large Aperture Array (LAB), Lightweight Wide-Aperture Array (LWWAA) Wide Aperture Array (WAA), LWWAA Low Cost Conformal Array (LWLCCA), Legacy Replacement, and High Frequency (HF) sonar upgrade EC-20. Specifically, the contractor will provide engineering support to develop design improvements for new and modified acoustic sensor systems; perform upgrades for common forward fit and back fit networking; and, transition Advanced Processing Builds (APBs) into their specific platforms, trainers, and shore based facilities. The proposed contract will include approximately 9,631,286 man-hours of engineering design development and technical support. The production procurement will include the following shipset quantities: eighteen (18) in FY22; twenty-four (24) in FY23; twenty-five (25) in FY24; twenty-eight (28) in FY25; twenty-three (23) in FY26; thirteen (13) in FY27; and, fourteen (14) in FY28.
A-RCI is a sonar system that integrates and improves towed array, hull array, sphere array, and other ship sensor processing, through rapid insertion of COTS based hardware and software. The period of performance for this effort is ten (10) years, one (1) base year and (9) option years, from FY20 through FY30. This requirement will be solicited sole source from Lockheed Martin Rotary Mission Systems (LM RMS) in Manassas, Virginia, who is the current A-RCI system integrator under contract N00024-17-C-6259. LM RMS is the only source with the requisite knowledge of the A-RCI system design, who has the technical experiences, and resources necessary to meet the Government's needs in a timely manner.
Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact LM RMS directly. This notice is for informational purposes only.
