Description

The solicitation shall be for a firm fixed price Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to produce Receiver-Transmitter Radar Sets (Transponders), A1 RF Module Assemblies, A2 Circuit Card Assemblies (CCAs); and for Complete depot rep air and retrofit of the AN/APX-100(V) Transponder and all subassemblies and modules. The items being procured are: Nomenclature Raytheon Part Number RT-1667A/APX-100(V) Transponder 4036360-0522 RT-1666A/APX-100(V) Transponder 4036360-0524 RT-1471A/APX-100(V) Transponder 4079100-0503 A1 RF Module Assembly 4072655-0502 A1 RF Module Assembly 4072655-0501 A2 Circuit Card Assembly(CCA) 4047434-0501 The RT-1XXX/APX-100 transponders above are part of the AN/APX-100(V) family of Legacy Transponders that has been manufactured exclusively by Raytheon (formerly) Allied Signal, and therefore, there already exists complete provisioning, logistics and mainte nance support in place. This sole-source solicitation is not meant to be used as a vehicle for the Army to procure an upgraded/updated replacement for the current legacy AN/APX100 Systems. Replacement of the legacy Transponder Sets is a tri-service obje ctive that is being satisfied with the Army acquisition of the new RT-1836( C )/APX-118( C ) Transponder. The above version C RF Modules and A2 CCAs are sub-assemblies of the RT-16XX(V)/APX-100(V) Transponders. There is currently no detailed Technical Data for the RT-1471A/APX-100(V) and RF Module sub-assemblies available from the Army. The government does not possess adequate drawings and other final documentation for the RT-16XX/APX-100(V) Transponders and A2 CCAs. The Transponders shall be warranted to meet the following criteria: Form, fit and functionally interchangeable (down to the module/circuit card assembly), with Raytheons Part Numbers. Meet requirements for DOD AIMS 97-1000 (DoD International AIMS Program Performance Standard, para. 4.1), DoD AIMS Program Office approval is required prior to procuring COTS/NDI to be used as replacement for an interface with existing AIMS systems. CECOM will not want to spend the time and money to AIMS qualify new Transponder sets or incur any additional cost due to new/additional provisioning, logistics and maintenance support for a different AN/APX-100 configuration. Production Lead Time of 6-9 months is required for Transponders and 6 months for RF Modules. Meet the requirements of MIL-R-81876B The RF Modules and A2 CCAs shall be warranted to be form, fit and functionally interchangeable with Raytheons Part Numbers. When the RF modules and A2 CCAs are assembled in the RT-16XX(V)/APX-100(V) Transponders, the Transponders shall meet all the above Transponder criteria. The current commercial source for Transponders, RF Modules and A2CCAs that meet all the above criteria is Raytheon Systems Company. Detailed Technical Data and updated/current drawings are not available from the Army. In addition this market survey is to locate additional commercial sources for Depot Repair Support Services for the AN/APX-100 Transponder System. This will be an effort involving total and complete depot repair down to the piece part level and the contra ctor will have to overcome problems relating to repair parts obsolescence when problems of this nature arise. This effort shall also include procurement of repair material and retrofitting of RT-12XX/APX-100(V) and RT-15XX/APX-100(V) units into RT-16XX/AP X-100(V) units to incorporate Modification Work Order (MWO) 11-5895-1037-30-2. These tasks include repair of Weapon Replaceable Assemblies (WRA), Line Replaceable Units (LRU) and indentured Shop Replaceable Assemblies (SRA). The services and materials to be provided to the government will not reflect total government repair needs, but only the repair and availability needs that, which at any given point in time, are discovered to be above and beyon d that which government depot facility can accomplish in the timeframe necessary, using government depot facilities and/or other levels of repair (AVIM, AVUM, SRA etc.).
