Description

The Air National Guard Air Combat Training System (ACTS) program supports permission preparation, mission execution, and post-mission debrief to enhance the quality of aircrew and warfighter training in planning, conducting and assessing air combat maneuvers, weapons employment, and tactics implementation by presenting tailored data and focused displays showing an integrated operational picture with emphasis on airborne and ground training participants. Data Link Systems and Electronic Warfare Threat Simulator Systems are integrated with the ACTS and included as part of the service support required. To provide this capability, ACTS uses aircraft instrumentation (typically a pod or on-board airborne system), integrated data feeds, range systems, and a robust ground infrastructure to track participants in multiple domains (emphasis on air and ground) while all data is continually recorded via multiple sources. After the event, the recorded data allows complete reconstruction of participant activity. Place of Performance: Performance under this contract will be at the four ANG Combat Readiness Training Centers, 10 ANG Air Gunnery Ranges and 24 ANG Fighter Wing locations. The Combat Readiness Training Centers (CRTC) will act as a “Hub” to ranges and fighter wing locations. See Exhibit 3A for a full site location listing. The contractor shall maintain an adequate work force for the uninterrupted performance on manned sites for all tasks defined within this PWS when the Government facility/installation is not closed due to local or national emergencies, administrative closings, or similar Government-directed facility/installation closings. The National Guard Bureau (NGB) Operational Contracting Division, on behalf of NGB/A2/3/6/10YA is conducting market research to determine the availability of qualified sources to provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to support the ACTS program. THIS IS NOT A FORMAL SOLICITATION. The Government is seeking to determine what qualified sources exist to fulfill this requirement. This information may be used to determine if there is a potential of a small business set-aside. The purpose of this “Sources Sought/Market Survey” is to gain knowledge of potential qualified sources and to develop additional knowledge of the existing market for the required services. The draft Performance Work Statement is posted with this notice and interested parties are encouraged to submit industry comments and/or suggested changes to the PWS. Feedback on individual submissions will not be provided. The Government requests interested small businesses parties submit a response which shall include a brief description of their company's business size (i.e. annual revenues and employee size), business status (i.e., Small Business, SDB, 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOB, Large Business, etc), any available contract vehicles (i.e., GS…
