Design, development, testing, evaluation, installation, and integration of mission reconstruction engineering tool for Navy Airborne (Air) Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW).

port coherent processing and displays which provides Multi-static Active Coherent (MAC) Enhancements and UnderSea Advantage (USA) Post Flight Analysis (PFA) capability on Maritime Patrol Reconnaissance Aircraft. This requirement seeks to propose, refine, and enhance the algorithms used in the waveform-dependent MAC/MAC-E/USA signal processing chain. DISCLAIMER �THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY.� 2.0 PROGRAM BACKGROUND The Multi-static Active Coherent (MAC) Enhancement system represents a new tactical phase in Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) supporting the Maritime Patrol Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA) community. Along with the current MAC-E system, the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) is introducing expanded MAC enhancements and USA with new concurrent capabilities requiring extensive PFA functionality. Air ASW effectiveness relies on effective and timely post-mission analysis. The Ground Replay System (GRS) engineering tool has effectively provided the sustained ability to replay MPRA mission data. A DD Form 254 Contract Security Classification Specification shall apply and the prime contractor shall have or demonstrate ability to obtain a �Top Secret� Facility Clearance. 3.0 Required Capabilities In support of Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA) Post-Flight Analysis (PFA) research, development, and engineering capabilities, potential vendors must: Design, develop, test, evaluate, install, and integrate new GRS product releases, and participate in Airborne (Air) ASW platform scientific testing and development efforts, off-site field testing for Research & Development (R&D), Developmental Test (DT) and Operational Test (OT), post-mission data analysis, user training, and development of GRS Fleet training programs, documentation, and analysis. Ensure software algorithms and display implementations remain in alignment with the Air Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) platforms as well as backwards compatible across previous P-8A aircraft product releases. This includes Multi-static Active Coherent (MAC), MAC Enhancements (MAC-E), Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), new functionality with the AN/SSQ-101 series and the AN/SSQ-125 series sonobuoys, UnderSea Advantage (USA) receiver sonobuoy array modifications and associated Next Generation MAC-E processing, concurrent processing of active and passive sonobuoys, new operator machine interface designs; High Duty Cycle (HDC) and demonstration of other Advanced Product Build (APB) concepts. Enhance the GRS engineering tool to support new Air ASW capabilities in expanding coherent processing and displays required for a MAC-E PFA capability. Propose, refine, and enhance the algorithms used in the waveform-dependent MAC-E signal processing chain. Within the broader signal processing objective, improve target detection and reduce clutter in Air ASW systems. Assess and transition the selected APB algorithms proposed by Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) and developed by industry as a Rapid Capability Insertion (RCI). 4.0 ELIGIBILITY The applicable NAICS code for this requirement is 541512.
