- Description
- The U.S. Army Research, Development & Engineering Command Acquisition Center intends to negotiate solely with Northrop Grumman, Inc., Litton Laser Systems Division (NGLS), Apopka, Florida for redesign of the System Controller circuit card assembly wi thin the Lightweight Laser Designator Rangefinder (LLDR) to address obsolescence and producibility issues and to provide an upgrade path for future improvements to the LLDR System. The scope of the action will include design activity resulting in a produc tion-ready System Controller, implementation into LLDR Systems for test, and test of the design. It is anticipated that this action will be a time and materials modification to Delivery Order BM02 issued against Basic Ordering Agreement N00383-02-G-007A. The LLDR is a reduced size and weight targeting and designation system. It provides the Armys Light Forces Forward Observers, Combat Observation and Lasing Teams, and Fire Support Teams with the capability for lightweight target observation, location, and designation. The LLDR System operates day and night in all weather conditions. It is modular, weighs 35 pounds and consists of two primary modules: the Target Locator Module (TLM) and the Laser Designator Module (LDM). The TLM provides target acquis ition, observation, and location functions, as well as mounting and control interfaces for the LDM. The LDM provides a coded designator signal that is used to highlight a target for destruction by laser-guided precision munitions. The design of the LLDR system is proprietary to Litton Laser Systems, Apopka, Florida, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northrop Grumman Corporation. Litton Laser Systems (Litton) and the Government does not possess detailed technical data for this item. No other source can provid e an LLDR system that meets the Governments requirements without duplication of development, testing and manufacturing facility or without exceeding the required delivery date of April 2007. Offerors who can demonstrate they can meet the Governments req uirement will be considered for award. U.S Army Research, Research, Development and Engineering Command Acquisition Center point of contact for this requirement is Mr. Jeff Pierce, contract specialist, 410-278-0861, fax: 410-306-3745, e-mail: jeff.pierc e@us.army.mil
