- Description
- A. The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Space Vehicles Directorate (VS), Joint Warfighting Space Office at Kirtland AFB NM is interested in receiving proposals from all offerors to design and build a high quality imaging spectrometer system. The total program budget for the design and build effort is approximately $10 to $15M over 30 months. There will be a separately priced contract option for a complete data package on the design, manufacturing, support, and operation of the sensor payload. B. The objective of the Advanced Responsive Tactically Effective Military Imaging Spectrometer (ARTEMIS) project is to develop a hyperspectral sensor suitable for integration on a government provided spacecraft bus and interface to government furnished data storage and processing system as part of a rapid development experiment. The objective of this effort is to achieve a sensor payload. The sensor design includes an imaging spectrometer capable of covering the visible through short-wave infrared spectral range, and a high resolution panchromatic imager. The total hyperspectral sensor cost includes the telescope; optics; the spectrometer including the Focal Plane Array; the control and read out electronics; pre-delivery characterization; documentation; integration support at a government facility and support during early in-flight calibration verification. The completed design must include a plan for delivery of the flight hardware sensor subsystem with complete calibration within 15 months after contract award. The proposal should include a contract option that may be exercised at any time during the contract period of performance, to provide a complete data package on the design, manufacturing, support, and operation of the sensor payload and/or spacecraft that will allow the government to procure additional sensors in a competitive selection process. The data package includes but is not limited to: mechanical drawings, optical layout/drawings, electrical specifications and data flow specifications, electrical/mechanical/thermal interface drawings and specifications, test/verification procedures, common/unique support equipment, long lead/critical spares lists, software documentation, interface requirements for payload and/or spacecraft, and storage/handling procedures. C. Prospective offerors are encouraged to contact the technical POC to verify interest in the effort to be proposed as well as obtain the specific classified and unclassified goals of the objective ARTEMIS system. Detailed goal information can be obtained by contacting Dr. Thomas W. Cooley, Thomas.Cooley@kirtland.af.mil, 505-846-2986. 2. POINTS OF CONTACT A.
