Description
INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE: NAWCWD is seeking technically competent sources for engineering services in support of Test and Evaluation (T&E) and systems engineering activities related to Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) and Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) programs at Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF). The purpose of this sources sought is to determine what companies are capable of providing the required services in a competitive procurement and to gain market knowledge of potential qualified sources and their size classifications relative to the North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) code 541330 for Engineering Services which has a corresponding size standard of $47 million. Responses to this sources sought synopsis will be utilized by the Government to determine the best acquisition strategy for this procurement and make appropriate determinations about potential sources. No solicitation is currently available and as such this is not a request for proposal and in no way obligates the Government to award any contract. A decision to set aside all or part of this requirement is dependent upon a review of the information submitted in response to this sources sought. After review of responses to this sources sought, a synopsis and/or solicitation announcement may be published. (2) PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: This requirement is for engineering services to be provided in support of Test and Evaluation (T&E) and systems engineering activities primarily related to Aegis-Based Defense, formerly Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) and Sea-Based Weapon Systems. Engineering service are provided to other entities, including (but not limited to) Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS), various Hypersonic programs, and Allied Foreign Military Sales (FMS) partners. Aegis-Based Defense is one weapon system in the layered defense provided for the United States and its deployed forces, friends and allies against ballistic missiles of all ranges in all phases of flight. This defense is provided through an integrated Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS), developed by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). MDA is responsible for fulfilling the goals set out in the National Missile Defense Act of 1999 in deploying “as soon as is technologically possible an effective National Missile Defense system capable of defending the territory of the United States against limited ballistic missile attack”. In support of this goal, the Aegis-Based Defense program needs to collect high fidelity system under test and auxiliary sensor data in order to evaluate the results of the flight test and to determine if the system(s) met the mission objectives. Additionally, auxiliary sensor data is highly valuable in providing forensics for any anomalies that may have occurred during these events. Pre-/post-mission data analyses of this auxiliary sensor data is critical these flight test scenarios. This is a follow-on contract to N6893622D00…
