Description

Disclaimer: This pre-solicitation notice is for information only, and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government to solicit contractual offers or award contracts. The Government will not reimburse the cost of any submission in response to this announcement – the entire cost of any submission will be at the sole expense of the source submitting the information. If a solicitation is issued in the future, it will be announced separately on SAM.gov and all interested parties must comply with that announcement.

The Government will not reimburse respondents for any questions submitted or information provided as a result of this notice. Submission of a response to this notice does not constitute a request to be added to a bidders list or receive a copy of a future solicitation. Synopsis The U.S Navy must maintain and modernize to meet current and future operational requirements.

The Portfolio Acquisition Executive Mission Systems (PAE MS) intends to issue the competitive solicitation N61750-27-R-1402 for an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity-Multiple Award Contract (IDIQ-MAC) for the procurement of AN/SPY-6(V) Hardware, Production, and Sustainment efforts. The Government intends to utilize the IDIQ-MAC to support current and future AN/SPY-6(V) systems and subsystems, including products and/or services to design, develop, fabricate, prototype, integrate, test, maintain, and support the multiple variants of the AN/SPY-6(V).

The anticipated period of performance of the base period shall be approximately five (5) years from the date of contract award with the potential of a five (5) year ordering period option. The AN/SPY-6(V) Family of Radar (FoR) systems are designed to be scalable and adaptable across multiple ship classes and mission requirements. The AN/SPY-6(V)1, which is the Navy’s next generation radar system that will address Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) and Air Defense (AD) capability gaps identified in the Maritime Air and Missile Defense of Joint Forces (MAMDJF) Initial Capabilities Document (ICD), will provide the capabilities defined by the AMDR Capabilities Production Document (CPD).

AN/SPY-6(V)2, a rotating phased array, will be the primary radar for self-defense and situational awareness and the backup radar for ATC on NIMITZ class CVNs and large deck amphibious platforms. AN/SPY-6(V)3, a 3-face fixed phased array. EASR will be the primary air surveillance radar supporting ship self-defense, situational awareness and Air Traffic Control (ATC) for Ford Class Carriers (CVN 79+) and air defense for the Constellation Class Frigates.

The AN/SPY-6(V)4 system is a variant of AMDR sized for retrofit into DDG Flight IIA ships to support modernization upgrades in Integrated Air and Missile Defense capability.
