This action will (a) add a CY 08 Option to CLIN 0019 (On-Orbit Operations) and CLIN 0020 (Satellite Storage), and (b) modify existing CY08 Option CLIN 0018 (Launch Support) with added scope. If delays occur to the current launch schedule, a CY09 option will be in place to allow continued support for Storage, Launch Support and on-orbit operational checkout of the SVs entering the constellation. This effort requires a TOP SECRET facility clearance to receive and generate classified material and safeguarding the fabrication, modification, or storage of classified hardware at the TOP SECRET level. LMSSC, the current GPS IIR contractor, is considered the only responsible source that can provide the following supplies and services without the Government incurring substantial duplication of cost that are not expected to be recovered through competition and/or unacceptable delays in fulfilling its requirements (10 USC 2304 (c) (l)). The GPS IIR Program is performing a market survey to determine if there are interested and qualified firms having the capability described for CLINs 0018, 0019, 0020, and 0076 as specified in attached Statement of Work (SOW). CLIN 0018; Launch Support: See attached SOW for details. The approximate number of staff-hours to be procured are 112,000 for CY08. If the CY09 Option is exercised, approximately 112,000 additional staff-hours will be procured for a grand total of 224,000 hours. CLIN 0019; On-Orbit Operations: See attached SOW for details. The approximate number of staff-hours to be procured are 87,000 for CY08. If the CY09 Option is exercised, approximately 43,500 additional staff-hours will be procured for a grand total of 130,500 hours. CLIN 0020; Satellite Storage; See attached SOW for details. The approximate number of staff-hours to be procured are 30,000. If the CY09 Option is exercised, approximately 30,000 additional staff-hours will be procured for a grand total of 60,000 hours. CLIN 0076; Compensatory Security Measures: The approximate numbers of staff-hours to be procured are 1,900. NAICS 334511 - Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing, size standard 750 employees.

DRAFT STATEMENT OF WORK (FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY) ANNEX G TO ATTACHMENT 6 TO F04701-89-C-0073 STATEMENT OF WORK FOR CALENDER YEAR 2008 FOR CLINS 0018, 0019, & 0020 STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION, LAUNCH SUPPORT, ON-ORBIT OPERATIONS SUPPORT, AND CONSTELLATION SUSTAINMENT OF NAVSTAR GPS IIR/IIR-M - SATELLITES 18 June 2007 1.0 SCOPE AND ORJECTIVES 1.1 Scope This Statement of Work addresses the Phase IIC support activities, including Space Vehicle (SV) storage and transportation, launch support, on-orbit operations and the sustainment support of the Global Positioning System (GPS) IIR/IIR-M SVs. 1.2 Objectives The tasks contained herein delineate the personnel, facilities, materials, and documentation required to support pre-launch storage and transportation, launch support operations, on-orbit operations, and constellation sustainment of the GPS IIR/IIR-M satellites. 2.0 GENERAL BACKGROUND The first phase of this program was known as Phase IIA and included the preliminary design of the GPS IIR satellites to a level of detail commensurate with a Preliminary Design Review. Phase IIA also included the completion of the development program. The production element was known as Phase IIB. The SV storage and transportation launch, and on-orbit operations support comprise Phase IIC. On 21 June 1989, the Air Force awarded Contract F04701-89-C-0073 (GPS IIR contract) to Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company (LMSSC). Under that competitively-awarded Fixed Price Incentive Firm (FPIF) contract, LMSSC designed, developed, produced, tested and delivered GPS IIR SV to the Air Force. On 18 August 2000, the Air Force awarded Contract F04701-00-C-0006 (GPS IIR-M contract) to LMSSC. Under this sole-source Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF) contract, the Air Force furnished eight IIR SVs to LMSSC as Government Furnished Property (GFP) to begin modernization development activities. The modernization effort of the GPS IIR SVs incorporated two new military signals, M-Code on L1 and L2 for enhanced accuracy, and a second L2 civil signal on a different frequency to each of the eight existing GPS IIR spacecraft already built and held in storage. In addition, the modernized SVs offer a modernized antenna panel that provides increased signal power to receivers on the ground and enhanced encryption and anti-jamming capabilities to military users. Modernization efforts were completed under the GPS IIR-M contract, F04701-00-C-0006, on 19 March 2007. The government took delivery of the final IIR-M SV and furnished it back to LMSSC as GFP under the GPS IIR contract, F04701-89-C-0073. Storage and transportation, launch support, and on-orbit operations support services are needed for the remaining three IIR-M SVs beginning 1 January 2008. Once the remaining IIR-M SVs are launched in CY08, constellation sustainment support for the 20 on-orbit IIR/IIR-M SVs will remain. The constellation sustainment contract will begin 1 January 2009. One SV is being modified for an L5 research and development demonstration package. This particular SV will be one of the last two SVs to be launched. This contract effort is on the FA8807-07-C-0005 contract to Lockheed Martin. 3.0 CONTRACTOR TASKS.
