Description
NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT WITH L-3 Communications Telemetry East. The Air Force Flight Test Center, Directorate of Contracting, Edwards Air Force Base, California, intends to award a sole source commercial contract to L3 Communications Telemetry East. The Air Force Flight Test Center has a requirement for single channel telemetry receivers and dual channel telemetry receiver systems to support the Advanced Range Telemetry Integration and Support (ARTM I&S) program. The telemetry receivers will be integrated into the AFFTC telemetry acquisition systems and airborne instrumentation ground stations. The receivers shall have the ability to be configured to support any of the following three frequency bands at a given time: 215-320 MHz, 1435-1535 MHz, 1700-1850 MHz, and 2200-2400 MHz. The receivers shall have a standard FM, PM, BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK demodulator. The receiver shall include an internal ARTM Tier I demodulator with provisions for controlling an RF Networks Diversity Branch Selector. The receivers shall include an internal PCM/FM trellis demodulator that provides up to 3.0 dB improvement in detection efficiency when compared to traditional analog PCM/FM demodulators. The receivers shall support data rates from 30 kbps to 20 Mbps. The receivers shall have an internal bit synchronizer also capable of supporting data rates from 30 kbps to 20 Mbps. The receiver IF outputs shall be compatible with ARTM Tier 0, ARTM Tier I and ARTM Tier II external demodulators; the performance of external demodulators shall not suffer from any receiver induced signal distortions such as excessive phase noise or discrete spurs. The receivers shall meet the latest IRIG 106 phase noise standards for ARTM Tier I and Tier II modulation formats. The receivers shall meet the latest IRIG 106 standards for Adjacent Channel Interference (ACI) performance. The dual channel receiver systems shall have a diversity pre-detection combiner with combined linear IF, combined AGC, and combined AM outputs. The receivers shall have a second IF frequency of 70 MHz. The receivers shall have RS-232, IEEE-488 and Ethernet remote control interfaces. The single and dual channel receiver systems shall have a spectrum display unit and record tape down converter as optional or standard features. The dual channel receiver systems shall have independent control of each receiver’s operating frequency and independent demodulators for each channel and combined as optional or standard features. Services shall include operations and maintenance training, receiver configuration upgrades, and repair and maintenance services. The single-channel telemetry receivers must be compatible in form, fit and function with L3 Communications Microdyne DR-2000 single channel receivers and the dual-channel receiver systems must be compatible in form, fit and function with the L3 Communications Microdyne RCB-2000 dual-channel receiver systems. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 334220 and the Small Business size standard is 750 employees. All interested parties who believe they can meet the requirement are invited to submit in writing complete information describing their ability to provide the supplies and services requested above. Firms responding must identify their company's capabilities to perform the requirements described herein, business size and category (i.e. SB, SDB, WO, etc.). Responses shall be limited to 15 pages and should include, as a minimum, (1) evidence of past experience; (2) related projects and/or existing systems, etc; and (3) business size as described above. Industry demonstrations may be held with interested sources that submit responses. Responses to this notice must be provided to Ashley Hohler at the Air Force Flight Test Center, Directorate of Contracting, 5 South Wolfe Avenue, Edwards AFB, CA 93524 by 1 June 2005. Information can be faxed to 661-275-9612 or emailed to ashley.hohler@edwards.af.mil. This synopsis is for notification purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation for bids or proposals. The Government does not intend to pay for any information provided under this notice. NOTE: THIS NOTICE MAY HAVE POSTED ON WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV ON THE DATE INDICATED IN THE NOTICE ITSELF (17-MAY-2005).
