Statement of Work (SOW) - Begin DESCRIPTION/STATEMENT OF WORK Synapsis Radar Processor Installation, Maintenance, and Training in Dakar, Senegal 1. BACKGROUND As a part of the U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT) Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA), the Volpe Center is a critical resource for innovation in transportation. Our mission is to improve the nation's transportation system by anticipating emerging transportation issues and to serve as a center of excellence for informed decision making. Since 1970, the Volpe Center has provided critical support to the DOT modal administrations and offices, other Federal agencies, state and local governments and organizations, foreign governments and entities, and the private sector. The Volpe Center's eight Technical Centers encompass all of the research, innovation, technology, and program analysis functions performed on behalf of our sponsors. Each Technical Center leverages multi-disciplinary capabilities to address national transportation goals. The expertise of Volpe Center's staff spans a wide range of transportation modes and disciplines-staff include civil, electrical, mechanical aeronautical engineers, physical and social scientists, human factors experts, economists, planners, information technologists, and safety operation specialists to name a few. Managers build project teams drawing across the organization from this broad range of expertise. The Volpe Center's Situational Awareness and Logistics Division supports the U.S. Africa Command Counternarcotics (USAFRICOM CN) Interagency Fusion Program (IFP) with enhancing counternarcotic efforts in Cape Verde, Ghana, Senegal, Tanzania, and The Gambia. In 2011, U.S. Naval Forces Africa and U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) as part of their theater security cooperation efforts deployed coastal surveillance radar systems at strategic locations within the African continent. These systems were provided to the African nations in which they are located. To achieve comprehensive maritime situational awareness in the region, U.S. AFRICOM intends to integrate the individual radar systems into the Volpe Center develop Maritime Domain Awareness web portal known as SeaVision. To do this the existing radar systems must be upgraded in order to communicate with the SeaVision servers. 2. OBJECTIVE The objective of this procurement is to acquire two Raytheon Synapsis radar processors (Bst: 8910) and travel to Dakar, Senegal and Cap Skirring, Senegal to install the radar processors and perform maintenance on the installed NSC-25 radar systems. The installation of the radar processor and maintenance of the NSC-25 radar system must be performed by a certified Raytheon Synapsis radar technician. Work includes the installation of a Raytheon Synapsis radar processor (Bst: 8910), the performance of recommended 4000 hour maintenance for existing NSC-25 radar components, and to provide training on the installation, operation, and maintenance of the NSC-25 radar system including the installed Synapsis radar processor. 3.
