- Description
- A sole source procurement in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 is contemplated with Honeywell Technology Center, Plymouth, MN. (See Numbered Note 22) Honeywell is the only qualified source to fulfill this requirement. The requirement is for fabrication of one infrared scene projector emitter module (PEM) which is to be compatible with the current cryogenic PEM design used in the Kinetic-Kill-Vehicle Hardware-in-the-Loop (KHILS) Vacuum Cold Chamber (KVACC) located at the Air Force Research Laboratory Munitions Directorate (AFRL/MN), Eglin AFB, FL. This PEM will include a Honeywell Brilliant Resistor Infrared Thermal Emitter II Extended Range (BRITE II ER) 512x512 array; all electrical, coolant, and external vacuum interfaces; and an ion vacuum pump as integral components. The delivered PEM will be used to support test and evaluation of advanced state-of-the-art seeker and control systems performance under varying mission scenarios through hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulations in a cryogenic environment. The Government has determined that the Honeywell BRITE II is the only infrared scene projection technology available that fully meets its requirements. The total effort is not expected to exceed 12 months. The Government will be responsible for annealing, system installation, and characterization of the delivered array. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Firms interested in this effort must respond with a complete capability/qualifications package, in accordance with Numbered Note 25, describing the company's technical expertise and experience available to accomplish the work described above. Responses submitted should be in one copy only and must be received within 15 days from the date of publication. Responses should be sent to AFRL/MNK, 101 W. Eglin Blvd, Ste 337, Eglin AFB, FL 32542-6810, Attn: Bernice Bradford e-mail: Bernice.bradford@eglin.af.mil. Any non-technical and/or contractual questions should be referred to the above individual at (850) 882-4294 ext 3409. Technical questions may be directed to AFRL/MNGG, Robert Stockbridge, (850) 882-4446, ext 2260, e-mail: robert.stockbridge@eglin.af.mil. This synopsis is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute an IFB or RFP and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. Firms responding to this synopsis should state whether they are or are not a small business concern as defined by NAICS code 541710 with a size standard of 500 employees. See Notes 22 and 25.
