Description

UPDATE 4/1/2024: The Unclassified Bidder's Library with draft TDP is now available to industry. For those interested in access, please submit the signed Terms of Use Agreement, DD 2345, and a capabilities statment, if those have not already been provided as well as a request for Bidder's Library access via e-mail to Brittany Burton, (brittany.m.burton4.civ@us.navy.mil), and Tom Kostyo (thomas.f.kostyo.civ@us.navy.mil), with a copy to the Contracting Officer, Ms. Holly Danner (holly.r.danner.civ@us.navy.mil). SECTION 1: SYNOPSIS The Naval Sea System Command (NAVSEA) is hereby issuing a Request for Information (RFI) on behalf of the Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems Above Water Sensors and Lasers directorate (PEO IWS 2.0). NAVSEA is issuing this sources-sought announcement as part of a market survey for the AN/SPY-6 radar variants. This includes the Air and Missile Defense Radar (AMDR) (AN/SPY-6(V)1) for DDG-51 FLT III, the AMDR Backfit radar for DDG-51 FLT IIA (AN/SPY-6(V)4), the Enterprise Air Surveillance Radar (EASR) Rotator (AN/SPY-6(V)2), and the EASR Fixed Face (AN/SPY-6(V)3). For convenience, the term SPY-6 is used in this RFI to refer to all noted radar variants. The SPY-6 variant radars are built upon common hardware line replaceable units (LRUs) using modular, open system principles. The basis for production of SPY-6 hardware is contained in the Technical Data Package (TDP), which will be provided as Government Furnished Information (GFI). It is PEO IWS 2.0 s intent to procure Build-to-Print (BTP) SPY-6 hardware under a new competitively awarded contract(s) in FY26. The term Build-to-Print in this context means producing to the exact specifications, drawings, and design contained within the TDP, with modifications allowed only for the purposes of addressing obsolescence, non-compliances with the system specifications (A-Specifications), and reducing life-cycle cost of all SPY-6 radars to be fielded. Software development, software and system integration and test, and software maintenance will be separately competed and are not intended as a topic of this RFI. The Government is evaluating procurement strategies, including winner-take-all, Leader-Challenger , and/or GFE breakouts of LRUs or subsystems as a separate contract(s). Feedback is desired from industry on these different strategies. Contract types may be fixed-price incentive, firm-fixed price, or some combination thereof, to be determined. SECTION 2: GENERAL INFORMATION Pursuant to FAR 52.215-3 this is a Request for Information (RFI) notice only. This RFI is for planning purposes and is issued solely for conducting market research in accordance with FAR Part 10. The Government is NOT seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. This notice shall not be construed as a contract, a promise to contract, or a commitment of any kind by the Government. Specific responses will not disqualify or have an impact on participation and evaluation on future solicitations. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future solicitation. If a solicitation is issued in the future, it will be announced via the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) website and interested parties must comply with that announcement. It is the responsibility of interested parties to monitor SAM for additional information pertaining to this requirement. Any small businesses that believe they can accomplish this entire requirement should indicate their small business status (see FAR Part 19) in their response. PEO IWS 2.0 representatives may or may not choose to meet with RFI respondents. Such discussions would only be intended to get further clarification of potential capability to meet the requirements. Questions regarding this announcement shall be submitted in writing via e-mail to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer s email addresses. Verbal questions will not be accepted. Questions shall not contain classified information. SECTION 3: REQUIREMENTS OVERVIEW A brief overview of the SPY-6 variant mission requirements and array configuration is provided as follows: AN/SPY-6(V)1 is designed to meet mission performance and size, weight, and power cooling (SWAP-C) requirements of the DDG-51 FLT III ships with AEGIS Baseline 10 (BL 10) combat system. The AN/SPY-6(V)1 will provide volume search, tracking, Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) discrimination, and missile communications in a wide diversity of environments and conditions. This variant includes 37 Radar Modular Assemblies (RMAs) per array, each which contain independent transmit and receive LRUs and provide SPY +16 minimum sensitivity. There are 4 arrays per shipset. AN/SPY-6(V)2 is designed to meet mission performance and SWAP-C requirements of the CVN(Nimitz) class carriers, Landing Helicopter Assault (LHA) hulls, and Landing Platform/Dock (LPD) hulls. This variant includes a single array on a rotating platform, with 9 RMAs. AN/SPY-6(V)3 is designed to meet mission performance and size, weight, and power cooling (SWAP-C) requirements of CVN (Ford) class carriers and Future Frigate (FFG(X)). This variant includes 9 RMAs per array x 3 arrays per shipset. AN/SPY-6(V)4 is designed to meet mission performance and SWAP-C requirements of the DDG-51 FLT IIA ships with a variant of AEGIS Baseline 10 (BL 10) combat system, to be defined. The AN/SPY-6(V)4 will provide volume search, tracking, Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) discrimination, and missile communications in a wide diversity of environments and conditions. This variant includes 24 RMAs per array x 4 arrays per shipset. The notional shipset procurement schedule (excluding potential FMS) for the above SPY-6 variants is: SPY-6 Variant FY26 FY27 FY28 FY29 FY30 AN/SPY-6(V)1 3 2 2 2 2 AN/SPY-6(V)2 0 0 1 0 0 AN/SPY-6(V)3 3 1 2 1 2 AN/SPY-6(V)4 2 2 2 2 2 Unit Totals 8 5 7 5 6 FMS Note: The Government is considering capturing potential FMS quantities in options on this future contract action.
