- Description
- ARCADE contract specifications In support of the activities of the NHQ3CS, the NATO International Military Staff (IMS) intends to invite bids on the development of a set of tutorials and on-line course material concerning a software application called ARCADE (Allied Radio Computer Aided Data Exchange), which is used by the NATO Spectrum Management community to exchange radio spectrum management data for military purposes. The results of all data exchanges are stored in a database called SMIR (Spectrum Management Information Repository). The IMS is serving as the procurement agency for this procurement, which was authorized by the Military Budget Committee (MBC). The Department of Commerce will be using as its reference for this procurement IFIB-NHQ3CS-ARCADE. Bids must comply with the General Contract Conditions and Technical Specifications (see attached), but additional options suggested by contractors will also be considered. Please note that it is the intent of the IMS to conclude a firm, fixed price contract for this work. BIDDING PROCEDURE Before a firm can be nominated to the bidders list for a NATO ICB procurement, it must be approved for participation in NATO ICB. Firms are approved for NATO ICB on a facility-by-facility basis. Only facilities located in NATO member nations may participate in NATO ICB. The U.S. Department of Commerce approves facilities that are located within the United States. U.S. firms will find a copy of the U.S. NATO ICB application at the following website: http://www.bis.doc.gov/defenseindustrialbaseprograms/OSIES/NATOprograms/index.htm The NATO ICB application is a one-time application.

The application and supporting documentation may be submitted as e-mail attachments. If, when submitting the application, your firm is interested in a specific NATO ICB project, please include the following in the text of your email: - the title and/or solicitation number of the project - the name/phone/FAX/email of the point of contact for the bid documents After approval of your one-time NATO ICB application, the Department of Commerce will then know to follow up by issuing a Declaration of Eligibility (DOE) for that project. A DOE is used to nominate an approved firm to the bidders list for a particular NATO ICB project. IMPORTANT DEADLINES 1. Deadline for requesting Declaration of Eligibility: 23 July 2009 2. Estimated IFIB release date: TBD 3. Estimated bid closing date: will allow for a bidding period of not less than 42 days 4. Intended award date: before the end of September 2009
