Contract Period of Performance (PoP) Extension and Options for Additional Modified Ballistic Re-Entry Vehicle (MBRV)-11 Development, Production, Delivery, and Launch Operations

missions. The PoP extension will allow support of those missions falling outside the current PoP and provide continued support for the production, and execution of those Subscale targets in multiple configurations. The information contained herein only initiates communication with industry in order to assess market potential. No solicitation document exists at this time. This Request for Information (RFI) constitutes no Government obligation to procure these items or issue a solicitation. The Government does not have an obligation to pay for information responding to this RFI and will not accept any responses as offers. The current Subscale contract requires the delivery of four (4) Short Range Ballistic Missiles (SRBMs), five (5) Medium Range Ballistic Missiles (MRBMs), and one (1) Mobile Launch System. Options are also in place for the delivery of up to seventeen (17) SRBMs and seven (7) MRBMs, as well as providing systems engineering for those launch vehicles and integration of the re-entry vehicle and flight test execution in support of flight test requirements per the MDA IMTP. The contract also requires the development and production of five (5) MBRV-11s to be integrated and flown on the Air Launched (A/L) Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM) and Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Target Delivery Vehicles. MDA is seeking alternate sources that can continue to produce, procure, and deliver subscale targets falling outside the current PoP, with Best Estimated Test Dates (BETDs) starting in 1QFY28 through 4QFY30. MDA is also seeking alternate sources that can produce and deliver the option of up to three (3) MBRV-11s to support the Missile Defense System (MDS) test program and future IMTP dates. It is understood that some of the RV types on the IMTP are expected to change, driving the need for additional MBRV-11 options. For both the PoP extension and the addition of MBRV-11 options, respondents are expected to produce, procure, manufacture, assemble, integrate, test, deliver, logistically support and document the system design. Respondents will also need to develop and procure kit capabilities that will be integrated with the baseline target vehicle. The scope also includes the production, development, operation, and sustainment of ground support equipment, spares, additional target components, target hardware and software/firmware, as required. Level III Technical Data Packages are required for all re-entry vehicles, targets, and ground support equipment. If no alternate sources are identified, the Government intends to issue a modification on the T4 Subscale Contract, HQ0147-19-C-0005 to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (NGSC), CAGE 8LM16, 1575 South Price Rd Chandler, AZ 85286-6615 under Statutory Authority 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. Based on currently available information, MDA believes that only NGSC is capable of providing the required services without substantial duplication of cost that is not expected to be recovered through competition and unacceptable delays, since NGSC owns the T4 contracts Technical Data Package (TDP). This notice is intended to meet the requirements of both FAR Part 5 and DFARS PGI 206.302-1. Description of the Requirement: Produce the MRBM T4 and SRBM T4 based on the T4 Targets System Performance Specification (TSPS) (DEI-DEIE-2021-SPEC-TSPS-012) dated 28 Oct 2021. Produce the MBRV-11 based on the TSPS dated June 27, 2024 (DE-TSE-2024-SPEC-TSPS-005) while complying with MDA�s Systems Engineering Processes. Deliver the option of up to three (3) MBRV-11s to support the MDS Testing based on the IMTP. Produce, procure, manufacture, and assemble hardware and perform required testing. Support launch vehicle integration, launch execution and pre-/post-flight activities. The MBRV-11 addresses a need to deliver target solutions for the MDS test requirements to defeat missile threats. The MBRV-11 will comply with the Targets Launch Vehicle to Payload Interface Control Document and will be integrated with the IRBM/ICBM Launch Vehicle to build the all-up-round Target. Responses: 1) Responses should address the ability continue support for the production, and execution of those Subscale targets in multiple configurations for the PoP extension and produce the MBRV-11 based on the MBRV-11 TSPS dated June 27, 2024 (DE-TSE-2024-SPEC-TSPS-005) while complying with MDA�s Systems Engineering Processes. Deliver the option of up to (3) MBRV-11s to support the MDS flight tests based on the IMTP needs. Procure, manufacture, and assemble hardware and perform required testing. Support launch vehicle integration, launch execution and pre-/post-flight activities. 2) Responses should also address the associated detailed schedule that supports reviews, testing, production, MBRV delivery date, launch vehicle integration, and flight test execution at the required BETD. 3) Responses should also address the cost estimate associated for the effort. 4) COST ESTIMATE: Provide a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM): As part of the evaluation process MDA requires some basic cost estimates to assist in the development of the acquisition strategy. Respondents should provide an estimate of processing one (1) T4 target per year which highlights the initial capability, delivery, availability, and related costs in each area they can support. Cost estimates should be separated into non-recurring engineering (NRE) and recurring engineering (RE) categories to perform high-level requirements listed above. Cost estimates should include ground rules and assumptions. Interested parties should address costs or Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) requirements associated with, but not limited to the following Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). When addressing technical requirements, respondents shall use the corresponding numbering and provide a recommended CLIN type appropriate for that area�needed to support acquisition strategy. 5) PROTECTING INFORMATION ON FEDERAL AND NONFEDERAL SYSTEMS: Department of Defense (DoD) participates in a range of activities to improve the collective cybersecurity of the nation and protect U.S. data and interests. When working on DoD networks and when processing, storing, and transmitting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) on their own company�s network(s) (nonfederal system(s)), Contractors are required to secure DoD's information by leveraging the National Institute of Standards and Technology information security standards and guidelines. Describe your cyber robustness, resilience, and hygiene approach towards protecting information and your ability to meet cybersecurity requirements. For nonfederal systems, address your management approach for ensuring that CUI is properly handled in your company�s network and how CUI is managed and implemented throughout your supply chain.
