DESC: The Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA) is developing
  the capability to predict collateral effects from strikes on
  nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) facilities as part
  of its Collateral Effects (CE) Program. DSWA is conducting
  a series of experiments to include laboratory and field explosive
  testing as a part of this program to identify pertinent physics
  for use in further developing and validating engineering-level
  modeling of both transient plumes and the internal flows from
  structures that produce plumes. The proliferation of weapons
  of mass destruction (WMD) as seen during the Gulf War has created
  the need for research to quantify collateral effects and to
  develop a real time collateral effects prediction capability
  to decrease the possibility of non-combative casualties resulting
  from attacks on nuclear, biological, and chemical facilities.
  The primary mission of the Collateral Effects Program is to
  provide real time predictions of the dispersal of nuclear,
  biological, and chemical hazards in response to incidents anywhere
  in the world. The analysis of attacks on targets containing
  nuclear, biological, and chemical materials requires quantification
  of the amounts of materials entrained in the plume generated
  by the explosion. Note that this is an unrestricted procurement
  with a SIC Code 7373 and a small business size standard of
  $18 million. Offerors must provide address information to the

SOL N/A
POC Brian Wilt, Negotiator, (703) 325-6960, Scott G. Morton,
  Contracting Officer, (703) 325-1200
DESC: The Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA) is seeking support
  to update the Protective Structures Automated Design Manual
  (PSADS) to correspond to the changes incorporated in the second
  edition of the DAHS CWE manual which is scheduled to be published
  in the year 2000. The objective will also be to incorporate
  new technology in the PSADS computer program to make it more
  usable and new functionality identified during the development
  of version 1.0 but not done due to release schedules. Background:
  In 1989 the former Defense Nuclear Agency (DNA) started an
  effort to create the first tri-service manual for the Design
  and Analysis of Hardened Structures to Conventional Weapons
  Effects (DAHS CWE). This manual is now published and in use
  by the US Army, Navy, and Air Force and as well by NATO and
  US civilian government agencies in the study of blast effects
  on structures. This manual has 17 chapters which deal with
  topics ranging from weapons characteristics, weapon generated
  environments, resulting loads on structures, and other related
  issues. The DAHS CWE is a living document with updates planned
  approximately every three years to incorporate new research
  and analysis techniques. In 1993, DNA started a companion effort
  to take the DAHS CWE manual and incorporate electronic hypertext
  format technology along with increased usability by activating
  equations, tables, and graphs and other techniques to make
  the manual more interactive and usable. The emphasis for these
  products (DAHS CWE and PSDS) is on defensive planning and survivability
  of hardened structures and are to be used by architect/engineer
  firms tasked with the actual design and assessment of facilities.
  Note that this is an unrestricted procurement with a SIC Code
  8731 and a small business size standard of 500 employees. Offerors
  must provide address information to the contract negotiator
  in order to be included on the mailing list for the solicitation.

SUBJECT: A--JOINT PRECISION STRIKE DEMONSTRATION (JPSD) PROGRAM
SOL N/A
POC Elvira Phillips,(703)428-6623; Nancy VanNICE, Contracting
  Officer,(703)428-6608
DESC: The U.S. Army Topographic Engineering Center intends to
  award a follow-on contract on a sole source basis with Raytheon
  Systems Development Company to support the execution of the
  Joint Precision Strike Demonstration Project Office's (JPSD-PO)
  Advanced Concept Technology Demonstrations (ACTDs): Rapid Terrain
  Visualization (RTV); Theater Precision Strike Operations (TPSO);
  and future ACTDs. This support will require the contractor
  to: conduct fully integrated live/simulated demonstrations
  with geographically dispersed participants, involving improved
  and emerging precision strike technologies, concepts and architectures;
  to acquire, integrate, sustain, and transition ACTD leave behind
  products to field units; and to work with warfighters and Service
  Battle Laboratories in the exercise and development of Tactics,
  Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) in the area of precision strike
  technologies. Work under this contract will require a thorough
  understanding of Joint Precision Strike functions (Surveillance,
  Target Acquisition, Strike Planning, Weapons Delivery and Damage
  Assessment), the TTPs used by a Joint headquarters and subordinate
  organizations to accomplish these tasks, and the C2 systems
  that support and merge these functions into a system of systems.
  Integration efforts will combine existing models and simulations
  with live user play to create a virtual battlefield, maintaining
  the present infrastructure of the JPSD Integration and Evaluation
  Center and providing for the growth of that infrastructure
  to meet JPSD requirements. Additionally new and evolving technologies
  and systems (C3, sensors and weapons) associated with these
  functional areas will be integrated into existing military
  systems. Other areas of interest are: sensor and weapon evaluations;
  participation in Joint Warfighter Exercises; and modeling,
  simulation and analysis support for the JPSD-PO, PEOs and other
  designated Government agencies. The software functional areas
  in support of the ACTDs shall include automated data collection/reduction
  analysis, virtual architecture prototyping, geographically
  distributed demonstrations, and data correlation and display.
  More details of the JPSD-PO can be found at www.monmouth.army.mil/peoiew/jpsd/home.htm
    JPSD's Integration and Evaluation Center (IEC), located
  at USATEC, Alexandria, Virginia will be used in the development,
  demonstration and analysis necessary to facilitate the integration
  of precision strike technologies, concepts and architectures
  supporting ACTDs. The facility has an "open system architecture"
  which accommodates evolutionary operational growth and expansion
  without the need to radically modify or redesign the IEC's
  basic hardware and software architecture. It uses COTS and
  GOTS hardware and software and contains high speed parallel
  processors, large screen displays, interactive workstations,
  networking, and interfaces to a number of sensors, weapon systems
  and wide area communication links to support JPSD-PO ACTDs.
    The RTV ACTD (FY99-00) requires support in the areas of
  rapid collection, generation, transformation and exploitation
  of digital topographic data. The fundamental RTV ACTD objective
  is to demonstrate the technologies and infrastructure necessary
  to provide high resolution (DTED V = 1 meter resolution) elevation
  data, feature data, and imagery over a 90 x 90 kilometer area
  in 72 hours. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (IFSAR)
  technologies will be used to generate very high resolution
  digital terrain elevation data. Integrating this IFSAR capability
  onto an aerial platform, and rapidly processing this quantity
  of data will be a major component of the ACTD. The second major
  component of the ACTD is the semi-automated extraction and
  attribution of tactically significant features (roads, rivers,
  vegetation and soil types, etc) from high resolution commercial
  Multi-Spectral Imagery (MSI). Mature COTS/GOTS technologies
  will be integrated wherever possible, and a residual leave
  behind operational capability will be transitioned to XVIII
  Airborne Corps at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Capabilities
  demonstrated at XVIII Airborne Corps with potentially significant
  value to the Experimental Force (EXFOR) will be provided to
  III Corps for their evaluation. The RTV ACTD will participate
  in several Warfighter exercises and develop a comprehensive
  concept of operations for tactical exploitation of high resolution
  terrain data. A strong corporate background in aircraft systems
  integration and topographic sciences including, automated cartography,
  geodetic science, photogrammetry, image processing, feature
  extraction, MSI/HSI, geographic information systems, laser
  radar (LIDAR), IFSAR, error propagation, and differential GPS
  will be required. A more comprehensive description of the RTV
  ACTD can be found at www.acq.osd.mil/at/rtv.htm  The TPSO
  ACTD (FY99-03) focuses on providing the CINC USFK/CFC with
  a significantly improved capability to conduct theater counterfire
  and precision strike operations in near real time through the
  synchronization of joint and coalition force. The focus of
  this ACTD is the Joint C2 interoperability of the Army's Deep
  Operation Coordination Center (DOCC) at Echelon Above Corps.
  The primary focus of this ACTD is to enhance and integrate
  Army specific and Joint C2 systems at the strategic level-specifically
  at the theater Army level-necessary to conduct these operations.
  Our approach to this objective will be to use the POM supported
  C2 systems as the baseline and "normalize" integration and
  enhancements into these baseline systems. The contractor will
  be required to partake in the planning and execution of TPSO
  ACTD major objectives which include: provision of enhanced
  precision strike support to the theater through an accurate,
  near real time, common operational picture to appropriate commanders
  and staff elements, provision of enhanced precision strike
  capability by the integration of enhanced functionality into
  joint command and control systems, and the horizontal integration
  of these systems across the services in support of a joint
  and/or allied headquarters. As part of this effort, the contractor
  will be required to partake in the planning and execution of
  a baseline demonstration in FY99, an Unreinforced Scenario
  (Korea) in FY00 and a Transition to a Reinforced Scenario in
  FYO1.  This contract effort will include a base year plus
  four option years. Anticipated contract is indefinite-delivery,
  indefinite-quantity (IDIQ), cost-plus-fixed-fee, with a ceiling
  value of $95M. Contract performance requires personnel and
  facilities cleared for access to TOP SECRET/SENSITIVE COMPARTMENTED
  INFORMATION (TS/SCI). This synopsis is for informational purposes
  only. See Note 22.

DESC: NASA/MSFC plans to issue a Request for Quotation (RFQ)
  for INTEGRATED MODELING AND ANALYSIS OF FLEXIBLE MULTIBODY
  SYSTEMS INCLUDING OPTICAL ELEMENTS FOR POINTING CONTROL SYSTEMS
  PERFORMANCE EVALUATION: Background - Since the performance
  of pointing control systems involve the control and orientation
  of individual elements of a mechanical system which often includes
  optical elements, the design of a control system that meets
  performance requirements depends on how well the dynamics of
  the mechanical system and thermal properties and environments
  are understood and can be modeled. These systems are typically
  composed of several elements, each of which might have structural
  modes of concern to the control system designer, large relative
  angular and translational displacements and closed mechanical
  topologies. The computer simulation tool, TREETOPS (TREE TOPology),
  has been developed and used at MSFC to model these complicated
  mechanical systems. TREETOPS is a multibody dynamics and control
  simulation program developed for analysis of the dynamics and
  control of complex, flexible, multibody systems. Developed
  under NASA funding, TREETOPS is available to industry and institutions
  working on NASA research. TREETOPS in conjunction with various
  tools of MATLAB (MATHematical LABoratory is a commercial software
  package from The Mathworks, Inc.) has provided an effective
  approach for the control engineer to begin the development
  of integrated modeling techniques of mechanical, thermal, optical
  and control systems to analyze pointing systems performance.
  While TREETOPS is a state-of-the-art tool and has been useful
  in solving past problems, it is being upgraded on a continuous
  basis to account for the intricacies of an ever increasing
  sophistication of control systems missions. This task involves
  the continuing development of the TREETOPS tool and its application
  to ongoing programs at MSFC. TASK DESCRIPTION: The contractor
  shall perform the following tasks. 1. TREETOPS Development:
  Modify and improve the TREETOPS simulation program in the areas
  of dynamical fidelity and usefulness to the control system
  designer. This shall include the development of multidisciplinary
  functions such as control, optics, flexible and inflatable
  structures, and thermally induced deformations. In many instances
  modifications will be prompted by test data from actual structures
  in the laboratory. Provide support in the areas of dynamics
  and simulation of flexible multibody systems. Maintain and
  upgrade TREETOPS as required to accommodate new problems. 2.
  AXAF On-Orbit Performance Assessment: The AXAF Project is in
  the spacecraft integration phase where actual test data is
  becoming available which will provide the best characterization
  of the flight hardware. The flight software testing and verification
  is also being performed which may require the modification
  of hardware and software operational models. A user defined
  control system algorithm shall be implemented into the TREETOPS
  AXAF model which utilizes the latest hardware and structural
  models including the reaction wheel vibration isolation model.
  3. Isolation for Microgravity: A key aspect of control system
  design for microgravity vibration isolation systems is the
  ability to conduct high-fidelity simulation of the system with
  the controller in the loop. This analysis must account for
  the multibody dynamics, structural flexibility, and controller
  architecture of the system. TREETOPS shall be used to model
  the isolation system and control system including flexible
  umbilical connections, actuator mass and dynamics, and payload
  dynamics. This detailed modeling is necessary to support the
  design and testing of an isolation system for the Space Station
  Microgravity Glovebox. TREETOPS was also used to support a
  technical assessment of the Boeing Active Rack Isolation System
  (ARIS). Further TREETOPS model development and refinement is
  necessary to support ongoing design iterations of ARIS as well
  as provide support during the verification flight testing and
  operation of ARIS on the Space Station. 4. SPARCLE: A TREETOPS
  model of the Space Readiness Coherent Lidar Experiment (SPARCLE)
  optical mechanism design shall be required for determination
  of pointing performance to support error budget analysis, design
  trades studies, and pointing system requirements. 5. Shooting
  Star Experiment: Continue development of an integrated optical
  and inflatable structures TREETOPS model using test data from
  thermal vacuum test of the SSE inflatable structure and CODE
  V simulations of the optical design. This procurement is being
  conducted under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP).
  NASA/MSFC intends to purchase the research from the University
  of Alabama in Huntsville pursuant to FAR 13.106 as part of
  the University Research Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) Program
  . This sole source procurement is based on the university's
  domain expertise in the area of dynamics and control of flexible
  multibody systems. Interested firms have 15 days from the publication
  of this synopsis to submit in writing to the identified point
  of contact, their qualifications/capabilities. Such qualifications/capabilities
  will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether
  or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis.
  Responses received after the 15 days or without the required
  information will be considered nonresponsive to the synopsis
  and will not be considered. A determination by the Government
  to not compete this proposed effort on a full and open competitive
  basis, based upon responses to this notice is solely within
  the discretion of the Government. Oral communications are not
  acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources
  may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency.
  An Ombudsman has been appointed. See Internet Note "B".

DESC: NASA/Lewis Research Center is hereby soliciting information
  for potential sources for ADVANCED REAL-TIME ALGORITHM DEVELOPMENT
  FOR LAUNCH VEHICLE HEALTH MONITORING. Techniques for diagnosing
  and isolating faults in the Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME)
  have been developed and tested that include the application
  of expert systems, neural networks, model-based reasoning,
  event detection and sensor validation. A post-test/post-flight
  automated diagnostic system (PTDS) developed for the SSME analyzes
  flight and test data and reports any engine anomalies and confirms
  planned test objectives. This expert system uses both heuristic
  and case-based reasoning upon features extracted from the data.
  A similar capability is required for real-time or near-real-time
  operation. For a given test or flight, the PTDS algorithm requires
  the entire data set up front in order to perform its diagnostic
  functions. For this reason, the system is not suitable for
  real-time anomaly detection. Efforts in real-time anomaly detection
  have included multiparameter regression, clustering, neural
  network and time series analysis techniques which are trained
  on empirical data, including both failure data sets and nominal
  data sets, and target known anomalies. An additional capability
  is needed to provide fault isolation and diagnosis in real-time
  in order to reduce the operations costs associated with safety
  monitoring, and to provide immediate information on system
  health. To compliment the efforts currently underway, this
  system should provide diagnosis based on physical or heuristic
  models as in the PTDS without requiring an entire test or flight
  data set up front. In addition, computational and memory requirements
  should be sufficiently low so as not to preclude eventual adaptation
  to on-line operation. An advanced real-time algorithm for engine
  and/or vehicle condition assessment is desired for the Space
  Shuttle program. The proposed technique shall be capable of
  providing subcomponent level anomaly detection without requiring
  the large amounts of nominal and failure data sets usually
  associated with empirically-derived safety algorithms. The
  approach shall provide real-time fault diagnostics to the extent
  possible within the constraints of real-time operation using
  techniques such as event-based or model-based condition assessment,
  probabillistic reasoning, and advanced computation and programming
  for knowledge-based systems. The information is sought from
  interested companies regarding their experience, past and current,
  in advanced real-timeanomaly detection algorithms for launch
  vehicles in Prototype System Development and Full Scale Development.
  No solicitation exists; therefore, do not request a copy of

  estimation and analysis of the cumulative weekly audience for
  Voice of America (VOA) programming re-broadcast by local radio
  stations in selected markets in Latin America. Each week, VOA
  provides some 30 hours of Spanish-language and 16 hours of
  Portuguese-language news and programs to local radio stations
  via satellite and telephone lines. The varied amounts and dispersion
  of program material local stations choose to re-broadcast require
  a four-phase methodology to gather data on VOA programming's
  cumulative reach.  Scope of Work: For each market, the contractor(s)
  shall obtain this data by matching a precise record of re-broadcasts
  of VOA-produced news and program material on any local stations
  during a specified week, with data on individuals' listening
  by station and time during that week, gathered from regular
  commercial research sources (where available) or from custom
  diary-based panel studies.  1. Local Station Programming
  Survey: The contractor(s) shall (using a brief questionnaire
  supplied by IBB Research) conduct a survey of programming directors
  of all radio stations in each market to establish awareness
  and typical patterns of use of news and program material produced
  by foreign sources, including Voice of America, BBC, CNN Radio,
  Deutsche Welle, and Radio France Internationale (type of programming,
  times and frequency of use, whether or not material is identified
  by source). Based on the information gathered, the contractor(s)
  shall compile a summary of stations and (15-minute) time blocks
  during which specified foreign-produced material can be reasonably
  expected to air over the course of the week for which radio
  listening studies are to be conducted. This summary shall include
  all regularly scheduled times foreign-produced programs air,
  as well as air times for program spaces that might be expected
  to air foreign-produced material (e.g., newscasts that make
  occasional use of foreign-prepared material).  2. Collection
  of Detailed Radio Audience Estimates:  a) Where such data
  is commercially available, the contractor(s) shall arrange
  for the purchase of ratings data for all local stations in
  each market. Acceptable commercial ratings data must be based
  on a sample of individuals (not households) in the target market
  and detail the radio listening behavior of individual panel
  members in 15-minute intervals over one full week or more,
  and must also include basic demographics on respondents (age
  and sex, and where available, education and other socio-economic
  classifications normally developed in the diary study); or
    b) Where radio audience data matching the above specifications
  is not regularly available from commercial sources, the contractor(s)
  shall design and conduct a 7-day diary-based panel study of
  radio listening with a sample of the adult population (15+)
  in the target market (achieved sample of 1,000--individuals
  rather than households). The contractor(s) shall be responsible
  for assuring that, whether purchased commercially or gathered
  directly, the data are delivered to IBB in a form that will
  allow their analysis with SPSS at the level of respondent and
  station-listening by 15-minute time blocks throughout the target
  week.  3. Monitoring of Local Stations During Target Week:
  The contractor(s) shall compile for each market a summary of
  the local stations and times (accurate to least at the level
  of quarter hours) where VOA-produced material was actually
  aired during the week for which data on radio listening is
  purchased or collected. To gather such information, the contractor(s)
  shall make audio recordings of the broadcasts of the local
  stations expected to re-transmit VOA-produced material during
  the target week. The recordings must cover all these stations'
  air time that might reasonably be expected to include VOA-produced
  material, based on the programmers' survey. The contractor(s)
  shall review the recordings of stations to determine when (by
  15-minute block) each local station transmitted VOA-produced
  news or program material over the course of the target week.
  The contractor(s) shall compile a log briefly identifying the
  VOA-produced material, organized by local station/15-minute
  block.  4. Follow-up Questionnaire for Diary Panel Members.
  As part of its own diary panel studies or in cooperation with
  the vendor of commercial radio ratings data, the contractor(s)
  shall administer a brief questionnaire (supplied by IBB Research)
  to panel study participants regarding their awareness and recall
  of listening to foreign radio programming and to supplement
  basic demographics not collected in the commercial ratings
  study.  Offerors may submit quotations for this project on
  any or all of the following markets or sets of markets: 1.
  Porto Alegre, Rio de Janeiro, and S o Paulo, Brazil 2. Bogot
  and Medell n, Colombia 3. San Jos , Costa Rica 4. Panam ,
  Panam  5. Montevideo, Uruguay  Responsibilities of IBB Research:
   IBB Research will provide the contractor(s) with: - information
  from VOA on the programs it delivers to the target markets
  (names, times, descriptions) and on the use of that programming
  by local stations in the target markets; - a brief questionnaire
  to use in surveying local programming directors as to their
  use of foreign-produced program material; - a brief follow-up
  questionnaire for panel participants in the radio listening
  studies. - a detailed log and description of VOA programming
  that was actually available to local stations during the 7-day
  periods studied in each market, to aid the contractor(s) in
  accurately identifying such material monitored on recordings
  of local stations.  Contractor(s) Responsibilities: The
  contractor(s) shall be responsible for the following deliverables
  for each target market: - a comprehensive research plan for
  each target market, to be reviewed and approved by IBB Research,
  including instruments and methodology used in custom diary
  panels and in recording and review of monitored local station
  broadcasts; - a station-by-station summary of the results
  of the programming directors survey describing the typical
  patterns of re-broadcast of specified foreign-produced material;
   - a concrete plan for monitoring local broadcasts to confirm
  precise airing of VOA-produced material, based on reasonably-expected
  usage patterns as revealed by the survey of programming directors,
  such plan subject to approval by IBB Research; - cassette
  copies of all audio tapes made in the monitoring of local stations,
  labeled by station and day/time period contained on the tape;
   - a station-by-quarter hour block summary of the VOA-produced
  material actually monitored on local stations during the test
  week; - a digital copy of the ratings data purchased or collected,
  preferably in SPSS format, or at a minimum in plain ASCII format
  with a codebook identifying variables and corresponding column
  locations; the data will include one record for each respondent
  in the diary panel, with listening data for each station by
  quarter-hour block, as well as demographic variables and, for
  each respondent, data from the companion questionnaire. 
  Delivery Schedule: After approval by IBB Research of the comprehensive
  media plan for a given market (including agreed-upon start
  date), the four phases of the research project should be completed
  within a four-week period, with data and reports ready for
  analysis delivered to IBB Research in a further four weeks.
  Where commercial data on radio listening is to be used, the
  contractor(s) shall schedule the other phases around the research
  period planned by the vendor of the commercial radio audience
  data.  Selection Criteria: In addition to total project
  cost and ability to meet the proposed schedule, quotations
  will be evaluated and vendor selected on the basis of the following
  equally important technical criteria: - demonstrated experience
  in conducting audience research in the target markets or Latin
  America generally, in particular experience in the design and
  successful conduct of panel studies of radio or television
  usage based on completion of personal diaries; - the degree
  to which the proposed research plan satisfies IBB's requirements
  for reliable, detailed data on individual radio use, demographic
  and follow-up awareness/recall data, as reflected in the information
  provided on the commecial data to be used or on the planned
  methodology for conducting a custom diary-based panel study
  in the target market(s) (while sampling only "ABC" socio-economic
  strata may be the most feasible standard practice for audience
  research in a given market, comprehensiveness of proposed sample
  coverage across socio-economic strata will weigh in favor of
  an offeror's quotation); - comprehensiveness of coverage of
  the target markets or sets of markets, assuring comparable
  methodology and field supervision in audience measurement and
  radio monitoring across as many of the proposed target markets
  as possible.  Each offeror's quotation shall include: -
  current information on the qualifications of offeror's office
  and field staff; - specific information on offeror's past
  experience in conducting audience research, especially diary-based
  panel studies, in the target markets and Latin America generally;
   - a plan of work for each target market for which the offeror
  is submitting a quotation, addressing each of the four phases
  of the research set out above, describing the commercial data
  planned for purchase (sample type, size and coverage, methodology,
  periods of availability) and/or the methodology planned for
  custom diary panel research (plans for sampling, recruitment,
  distribution, compliance and quality assurance) and how the
  data to be purchased or collected satisfies IBB Research's
  requirements; in addition to the specified 1,000-person custom
  diary panel, offerors may propose options for samples of less
  than 1,000, but in no case less than 500; - separate cost
  quotations for each market or set of markets on which offeror
  is submitting a quotation.  Submission of quotations and
  due date:  Firm-fixed price quotations should be submitted
  no later than March 31, 1998 and shall reference this RFQ No.
  B/PA-98-12. In addition to addressing the points noted above,
  submissions should also provide details on any subcontractors
  who would be engaged to work on these projects. Omission of
  any of the points of information requested will weigh against
  a quotation. Please submit any questions concerning technical
  requirements to Scott Michael, Office of Research, USIA/IBB,
  at (202) 619-2200 or Fax (202) 205-3766. Proposal and price
  quotation should be faxed to Lorraine Mullen, Contracting Officer,
  at (202) 205-1921. Price quote must be on a separate page from

POC David Nemeth, Concession Specialist, Glacier Bay National
  Park 907/697-2230
DESC: Public notice is hereby given that the National Park Service
  (NPS) proposes to award concession permits authorizing the
  operation of cruise ship services for the public at Glacier
  Bay National Park, Alaska for a period of five (5) years from
  January 1, 2000 through December 31, 2004. This solicitation
  offers sixty eight (68) cruise ship entries from June 1 to
  August 31 and up to 546 cruise ship entries outside of the
  June-August regulatory period into Glacier Bay proper, subject
  to the scheduling limitation of two cruise ships per day year
  round for all companies combined. This solicitation also serves
  as public notice that the NPS intends to discontinue the former
  practice of issuing Incidental Business Permits for park waters
  outside Glacier Bay proper, and instead require prospective
  operators to apply uner a concession solicitation and prospectus
  to operate in these waters after January 1, 2000.  There
  are two types of preferences applicable to this solicitation
  as follows:  1. The provisions of the Alaska National Interest
  Lands Conservation Act (16 U.S.C. 3197), Section 1307(b) and
  36 CFR 13.83 apply to this solicitation. Preference will be
  given to the Native Corporations(s) most directly affected
  by the creation of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve and
  to persons who are determined to be local residents. The preferences
  established in ANILCA Section 1307 take precedence over the
  preferential right of renewal granted incumbent NPS concessioners
  (see item #2 below).  2. Thirty of the 68 cruise ship entries
  during the June 1 - August 31 period referred to above are
  assigned to existing concessioners. These existing concessioners
  have operated satisfactorily during their current permits,
  and may apply and compete for new permits. As satisfactory
  operators, they have the rights to renewal provided for in
  PL 89-249, Section 5 and in 36 CFR 51.3(b) and 36 CFR 51.5.
    For further details concerning these preferences, see the
  prospectus.  All interested parties are encouraged to apply
  and the NPS will consider and evaluate all offers received
  as a result of this notice. Any offer, including that of the
  existing concessioner, must be received at the National Park
  Service, Alaska Support Office, Attention: Concessions Division,

DESC: The Katowice Vovoidship (KV) invites submission of qualifications
  and proposal data (collectively referred to as the "Proposal")
  from interested U.S. firms which are qualified on the basis
  of experience and capability to develop a feasibility study
  on the handling and disposal of wastewater treatment plant
  (WWTP) sludge in Katowice. KV is one of Poland's most populated
  areas and the most industrialized region. KV has over 80 WWTP's
  that serve the region. These treatment plants have minimal,
  if any, sludge handling and disposal equipment which has created
  a serious environmental and health risk. The purpose of the
  feasibility study is to identify the most cost-effective technical
  approach to provide proper handling and disposal of these WWTP
  residual solids. This project has been identified by KV's environmental
  department as one of their top priorities. Due to limited experience
  in this area, KV requested assistance with contractual, financial,
  and technical components to help attract U.S. investors and
  equipment suppliers. The feasibility study will identify the
  quantity and characteristics of the WWTP sludge at the various
  treatment facilities followed by the development of a sludge
  handling and disposal plan for the region. The scope of work
  would also include the preliminary design of the facilities,
  equipment sizing and selection, cost estimates for construction,
  and the development of a specific financing plan for project
  implementation. The actual terms of reference for the study
  follows: Task 1-Identify the Katowice WWTP's existing sludge
  handling approach and practices. Task 2-Collect existing sludge
  characterization data, including environmental impact assessment.
  Task 3-Develop technical alternatives for sludge handling and
  disposal. Task 4-Prepare conceptual design for sludge management
  systems. Task 5-Evaluate construction and O&M costs for each
  facility and disposal option. Task 6-Conduct economic evaluation
  of the selected alternative. Task 7-Develop a detailed financial
  plan and review financing alternatives with potential financiers.
  Task 8-Prepare design and construction plan. Task 9-Prepare
  comprehensive feasibility study report. The U.S. firm selected
  will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $301,186 grant to the Katowice
  Vovoidship from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency (TDA).
  The overall budget for completing the feasibility study has
  been estimated by TDA to be $451,186, and the remaining costs
  of $150,000 necessary to complete the feasibility study will
  be contributed in-kind by the U.S. company selected to perform
  the feasibility study. A detailed Request for Proposals (RFP),
  which includes requirements for the Proposal, the Terms of
  Reference, and a background definitional mission report are
  available from TDA, at 1621 N. Kent Street, Suite 300, Arlington,
  VA 22209-2131. Requests for the RFP should be faxed to the
  IRC, TDA at 703-875-4009. In the fax, please include your firm's
  name, contact person, address, and telephone number. Some firms
  have found that RFP materials sent by U.S. mail do not reach
  them in time for preparation of an adequate response. Firms
  that want TDA to use an overnight delivery service should include
  the name of the delivery service and your firm's account number
  in the request for the RFP. Firms that want to send a courier
  to TDA to retrieve the RFP should allow one hour after faxing
  the request to TDA before scheduling a pick-up. Please note
  that no telephone requests for the RFP will be honored. Please
  check your internal fax verification receipt. Because of the
  large number of RFP requests, TDA cannot respond to requests
  for fax verification. Requests for RFPs received before 4:00
  PM will be mailed the same day. Requests received after 4:00
  PM will be mailed the following day. Please check with your
  courier and/or mail room before calling TDA. Only U.S. firms
  and individuals may bid on this TDA financed activity. Interested
  firms, their subcontractors and employees of all participants
  must qualify under TDA's nationality requirements as of the
  due date for submission of qualifications and proposals and,
  if selected to carry out the TDA-financed activity, must continue
  to meet such requirements throughout the duration of the TDA-financed
  activity. All goods and services to be provided by the selected
  firm shall have their nationality, source and origin in the
  U.S. or host country. The U.S. firm may use subcontractors
  from the host country for up to 20 percent of the TDA grant
  amount. Details of TDA's nationality requirements and mandatory
  contract clauses are also included in the RFP. Interested U.S.
  firms should submit their Proposal in English directly to the
  Grantee by 4:00 PM, April 6, 1998 at the above address. Evaluation
  criteria for the Proposal are included in the RFP. Price will
  not be a factor in contractor selection, and therefore, cost
  proposals should NOT be submitted. The Grantee reserves the
  right to reject any and/or all Proposals. The Grantee also
  reserves the right to contract with the selected firm for subsequent
  work related to the project. The Grantee is not bound to pay
  for any costs associated with the preparation and submission
  of Proposals.

DESC: The General Services Administration is issuing a draft
  solicitation for Governmentwide Asset Management Services.
  Many Government Agencies missions require the management of
  various types of assets. The manner in which these assets are
  managed and, in some cases disposed, can have a significant
  impact on an agencies fiscal budget and accounting process.
  With the changing business environment caused by technological
  changes, uncertain economy, budget, legislation, competition,
  customer demands, and current staffing limitations, the Government
  requires contractor support to assist it in managing various
  assets.  The General Services Administration is working with
  several agencies to develop a Multiple Award Schedule for any
  Government agency to use to obtain the services of contractors
  with the qualifications, commitment, expertise, and experience
  required to assist the Government in the valuation, management,
  and disposition of various assets as well as the transfer of
  debt as required by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of
  1996. (Note that this is NOT a facilities management or property
  management procurement). The general types of contractual support
  being sought for Government asset management may include, but
  is not limited to the following services. Agencies may require
  any combination of these services.  Program Financial Advisor
  Services Transaction Servicer Due Diligence and Support Services

DESC: The National Library of Medicine (NLM) intends to contract
  on a sole source basis with Atlis Federal Services, Inc. for
  the preparation of materials for preservation microfilming
  of rare books, including artifactually valuable bound volumes,
  both brittle and non-brittle, and early bound manuscripts.
  Preservation microfilming requires consistent adherence to
  high standards for preparation, targeting, and updating of
  bibliographic records. Approximately 500 rare volumes will
  be prepared for microfilming under this contract over a 2-year
  period. All tasks shall be performed on-site at NLM in Bethesda,
  MD. The actual filming will be done offsite at a microfilming
  facility under a separate contract. The Contractor shall: 1)
  Search bibliographic utilities for titles to be filmed; 2)
  Perform page-by-page collation; 3) Determine appropriate preparation
  actions; 4) Produce various targets; 5) Program microfilm reels;
  6) Inspect all work and correct all preparation errors; 8)
  Check-in filmed volumes; 9) Update NLM data files; 10) Monitor
  and control the overall preparation workflow; and 11) Perform
  rework as needed. Atlis Federal Services, Inc. staff are currently
  located on-site at NLM, and NLM does not have space or facilities
  to accommodate another contractor requiring similar facilities.
  Atlis staff have received extensive training in collation,
  book handling, the use of a tracking file, and the maintenance
  of NLM's data files, which is a highly complex process. Atlis
  has also designed and currently maintains a unique tracking
  system specifically for the performance of this project. Any
  other contractor performing similar operations would constitute
  a redundancy of effort and would create interference and inconsistencies.
  This notice of intent is not a Request for Proposals (RFP)
  nor is an RFP available. Substantial duplication of costs and
  effort make competition for this effort unfeasible. Telephone/fax
  requests will not be honored. See numbered notes 22 and 26.

  indicated by the Contracting Officer. Projects assigned to
  these IDIQ contracts will use the Solution Order Concept (SOC)
  approach to scope and price the work. After award of the initial
  contracts, each awardee shall be provided a fair opportunity
  to be considered for each task order, except under those circumstances
  described in FAR 16.505 (b) (2). Construction schedules will
  be determined for each project at the issuance of each task
  order. The work will be routine renovation, alteration, repair,
  inspection, minor construction and minor architecture/engineering
  of facilities including: fuel, petroleum, oil and lubricant
  dispensing, distribution and storage systems, monitoring, detection,
  security and containment systems, minor buildings, site work,
  and utilities necessary to provide fully functional facilities.
  Work may include renovation, inspection, alteration and repair
  of heavy duty fuel farm facilities including underground storage
  tanks of approximately 50,000-barrel capacity. The first IDIQ
  construction contract of the three or more will be awarded
  with a firm fixed price, 100% design as the seed project. Evaluation
  of award will be based on technical factors including (1) Past
  Performance, including subcontracting effort (2) Technical
  ability with subfactors including: (2A) Experience, (2B) Technical
  approach and (2C) Capacity to Accomplish Work; and (3) Pricing
  of full plans and specifications for N68711-98-R-5005, the
  seed project and first task order of this contract. The estimated
  construction cost for this initial project, includes; providing
  overspill containment, routing overfill alarm signals to the
  Fuels Division office, repairing existing cathodic protection
  equipment and systems, inspecting and repair or replacement
  of underground storage tank linings, and incidental related
  work is between $1,000,000 to $5,000,000. Successful offerors
  will receive the following contract awards: Best value receives
  the seed project with award; 2nd, 3rd, and any additional selected
  contractor will each receive award with a minimum guarantee
  of $50,000 for the base year. All contractors will competitively
  bid on subsequent task orders. These subsequent projects will
  be non-complex performance oriented tasks requiring minimal
  design. They will be scoped by the government/contractor team
  and may not have traditional plans and specifications buy may
  include sketches, and requests for catalog cuts or other submittals.
  The salient requirements of the Task Order will be scoped by
  the government/contractor team in order to develop a mutually
  agreed upon statement of work. Award factors will vary depending
  on the unique requirements for each task order and may be competed
  on the basis of price, best value or technically acceptable,
  low-price selection procedures. however pricing will weigh
  heavily. The awarded Task Order will be a performance scoped,
  firm fixed price task with a specific completion date. Should
  any of the IDIQ contractors be unable to competitively secure
  a task order to meet the minimum guarantee, award factors may
  be modified in order to ensure each participating contractor
  is awarded task orders meeting the minimum guarantee. All contractors
  will be required to participate in all SOC walk throughs and
  submit proposals. Failure to participate responsibly in walk
  throughs and submitting proposals on Task Orders may result
  in the Government not exercising the option to extend the contract
  for an additional year. Only the selected contractors will
  be permitted to propose on the task orders. Proposals from
  other contractors will not be accepted. A minimum of two proposals
  will satisfy the competitive requirements of SOC and preclude
  the necessity of soliciting for a replacement contractor if
  for any reason one of the contracts is terminated or one of
  the proposers is not able to participate in the process. Failure
  to participate responsibly in the task order process may result
  in forfeiture of the minimum guarantee amount. THIS SOLICITATION

DESC: 17. The Aeronautical System Center, KC-135 Development
  System Office, ASC/GRR, is chartered to conduct industry inquiries
  in developing acquisition strategies for the KC-135 GATM Modification
  Program. This will include issuance of Sources Sought, DRFP
  release(s), and future industry engagements leading to final
  RFP solicitations. The KC-135 Development System Office is
  requesting advanced planning information and market identification
  of the availability of commercial solutions to modernize the
  KC-135 aircraft with Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) capability.
  The GATM system encompasses the elements of communications,
  navigation and surveillance, and air traffic management, referred
  to commercially as communications, navigation, and surveillance/air
  traffic management (CNS/ATM). The KC-135 fleet baseline configuration
  is the basic KC-135 with the addition of Pacer CRAG and Reduced
  Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) modifications. Pacer CRAG
  includes Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS),
  Enhanced-Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS), FMS 800 Flight
  Management System, five multi-function display (MFD) color
  weather radars, and a single EGI (Embedded GPS/INS). The use
  of commercial items is anticipated. The availability of Government
  Furnished Data (KC-135 Aircraft Drawings, Technical Orders/Other
  Data) has not been determined. For the purpose of this notice,
  respondents will be responsible for obtaining all data as needed
  from the KC-135 aircraft manufacturer without Government assistance.
  Industry respondents are requested to submit the following
  information: 1. Company name, address, point of contract, telephone
  number and e-mail address. 2. Discussions of specific similar
  GATM efforts (program value, schedule) where the contractor
  has experience in modifying heavy aircraft (commercial or military)
  such as the KC-135R as contemplated in this program. Response
  to this request is voluntary. A Program Management Directive
  (PMD) and required funding for the KC-135 Aircraft GATM Modification
  Program have not yet been approved. Therefore, this notice
  is for planning purposes only. This notice is not a request
  for proposal (RFP), and shall not be construed as an obligation
  on the part of the Government to acquire any part or all of
  the KC-135 modifications or otherwise pay for the information
  requested and furnished. The information you provide may be
  used by the USAF to ascertain and develop technical and programmatic
  acquisition approaches and/or strategies. Data obtained from
  this request will be considered and may be used for advance
  planning, program phasing, and the definition of tailored technical
  requirements. Identification of the contributing companies
  will not be divulged outside the Government. However, the Government
  reserves the right to use, in whole or part, any industry information
  received as a result of the RFI responses as part of a future
  acquisition strategy. Information you provide will not be used
  as a criteria for the prequalification of respondents for future
  solicitations. More information about the KC-135 GATM Aircraft
  Modification Program (including the unsigned draft USAF Capstone
  Requirements Document (CRD), Global Air Traffic Management
  (GATM), 001-97 - FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY) can be found at
  the KC-135 PIXS site at http://www.pixs.wpafb.af.mil/pixslibr/KC135GATM/KC135GATM.ASP.
  The Government will use this site as its primary means of communicating
  with industry. We have posted additional technical, cost, logistics,
  and contractual questions on this site and we solicit your
  comments to these questions, which will help us plan the acquisition.
  A series of Industry Days or site visits will be posted by
  later notification. Mr. Stephen J. Plaisted has been appointed
  as Ombudsman to hear concerns from offerors, or potential offerors,
  during the proposal development. The purpose of the Ombudsman
  is to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements,
  and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel.
  Existence of an Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of
  the program director or the contracting officer. Accordingly,
  the Ombudsman does not participate in the preparation of solicitations,
  the evaluation of proposals or the source selection process
  and, therefore, for routine matters on individual solicitations,
  please contact Mr. Bill Oswald, Contracting Officer at (937)
  255-1572 or Lt Col Kim High at (937) 255-6606, ASC/GRR, 2590
  Loop Road West, Room 210, Wright-Patterson AFB OH 45433-7142.
  When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality
  as to the source of the concern. Should you desire to contact
  the Ombudsman, Mr. Plaisted can be reached at (937) 255-9095,
  or you may contact him in writing at 1790 10th Street, Room
  208, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433. All responsible sources
  may submit a response. Industry responses to this notice should
  be submitted to ASC/GRR no later than 14 days from the date
  of this CBD notice.*****

  N/A!!  17. The MC-130H Combat Talon II (CT-II) Contracting
  Division (ASC/LUMK) at Headquarters Aeronautical Systems Center,
  Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, seeks sources for a
  non-developmental, wing-mounted, hose and drogue aerial refueling
  pod, capable of meeting the requirements defined in the Headquarters,
  Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) Operational Requirements
  Document (ORD), 004-97-I, dated 22 Sep 97. A copy of the ORD
  can be found on the Internet at http://www.pixs.wpafb.af.mil/pixs/pixslibr/sof/rfp.htm
  (ORD is located at Attachment 8). The pod must, as an absolute
  minimum, provide the following capabilities: (1) Be capable
  of refueling all current and planned Special Operations Forces
  (SOF) vertical lift aircraft, including all current SOF helicopters
  and tilt rotor aircraft, such as the CV-22. (2) It must be
  able to transfer all aviation fuels used by the MC-130H, adapting
  to different aviation jet fuel types useable by the MC-130H
  while still accurately computing transfer rates and fuel off-loads.
  (3) It must be able to accomplish in-flight refueling of receiver
  aircraft through a speed range of 95 knots equivalent airspeed
  (KEAS) to 180 KEAS without requiring the aircraft to land to
  reconfigure or replace the drogue. (4) It must be able to simultaneously
  transfer 150 gallons per minute to each of two SOF receiver
  aircraft at less then receiver proof pressures, without extensive
  modification to the current MC-130H fuel transfer system, or
  use of a cargo compartment tank pump system. (5) The pod lighting
  system(s) must support both day and night operations. Night
  operations will be conducted with either natural vision or
  with the aid of night vision devices. Therefore, lighting must
  be compatible with current night vision goggle (NVG) technology.
  (6) Finally, the pod must not prevent the MC-130H from performing
  all current operations, to include terrain following flight,
  airdrop, NVG landings, and in-flight refueling from KC-135
  or KC-10 aircraft, with the ARS installed. Desired capabilities
  described in the AFSOC ORD include improved system reliability
  and maintainability. For example, a demonstrated reliability
  of greater than 200 pod operating hours between critical failures
  is desired. Also, the system should provide a mean repair time
  of less then 3.88 hours. System modularity, built-in-test capability,
  and accessibility are key features that shall be provided to
  assist in maintenance of the pods. In addition, maximum use
  of equipment (including support equipment), currently available
  within the USAF inventory is desired in order to maintain commonality
  with the USAF logistics system. Each firm shall provide past
  performance information to describe the use of their aerial
  refueling pods on C-130 aircraft or other military aircraft.
  Routine communication concerning this acquisition should be
  directed to the points of contact listed below. Each firm responding
  to this synopsis shall include a complete description of its
  qualifications for satisfying the minimum ARS requirements
  as described in the AFSOC ORD. The response shall include a
  technical description of the system and an estimated date of
  when the pod can be made available for qualification testing
  by the Air Force. All information received by the government
  from any firm shall be treated as proprietary data and will
  not be shared in any way with any other company. In addition,
  all information received by the government as a result of this
  request for sources shall be at no cost, nor shall the government
  compensate any respondent for costs incurred in the development
  of this information. This request for sources in no way commits
  or implies a commitment by the government for future contractual
  obligation. Mr. Stephen J. Plaisted has been appointed as Ombudsman
  to hear concerns from offerors, or potential offerors, during
  the proposal development. The purpose of the Ombudsman is to
  communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and
  recommendations to the appropriate government personnel. Existence
  of an Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of the program
  director or the contracting officer. Accordingly, the Ombudsman
  does not participate in the preparation of solicitations, the
  evaluation of proposals, or the source selection process. Therefore,
  for routine matters on individual solicitations, please contact
  Ms. Deborah Booher at (937) 255-2974, or, via e-mail, deborah.booher@asclu.wpafb.af.mil.
  When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality
  as to the source of the concern. Should you desire to contact
  the Ombudsman, Mr. Plaisted can be reached at (937) 255-9095.
  Interested firms should submit their responses in writing to

SOL F33657-98-R-0014
DUE 022798
POC Mr Bill Oswald, Contracting Officer, (937) 255-1572 
DESC: 17. The KC-135R Development System Office is surveying
  the market to identify potential sources and to determine the
  availability of commercial solutions to modify seven currently
  in service KC-135R aircraft. These modifications include extensive
  interior, communications, and aircraft system upgrades necessary
  to support the war-fighting Commanders-in-Chiefs (CINCs) and
  their staffs. The primary purpose of this modernization program
  is to improve the operational utility of current CINC support
  aircraft. Currently, CINC CENTCOM, SOUTHCOM, EUCOM, PACOM and
  STRATCOM aircraft suffer numerous operational restrictions
  and have high operating maintenance and support costs. In addition,
  lack of RVSM (Reduced Vertical Separation Minima), NAV Safety
  and Stage III noise compliance on the existing aircraft are
  major impediments to worldwide CINC air travel.   Specific
  capabilities required include the following: No significant
  degradation to current performance capabilities of the KC-135R;
  6600 NM unrefueled range; seating for 36 passengers and crew;
  separate CINC compartment with separate staff work area, both
  with over-head storage preferred; adequate electrical power;
  lavatories; galley; potable water; emergency oxygen and cargo
  storage in sufficient quantities to support the crew and passengers
  for missions of up to 18-hour durations. The baseline aircraft
  will be a KC-135R equipped with Pacer CRAG Block 20 and RVSM
  modifications. Mission Communications System (MCS) - CINC aircraft
  must be equipped with a modern MCS capable of providing worldwide
  secure and nonsecure voice and data communications interoperable
  with associated ground and airborne communication networks.
  Simultaneous operation of command and mission communications
  during ground and flight operations (except refueling/air refueling),
  is required. Modifications will not degrade or interfere with
  other aircraft systems. Mission communications must be interoperable
  with NCA, Department of Defense, MYSTIC STAR, and must support
  CINC command centers. Backwards compatibility must be maintained.
  Communications equipment must be capable of being secured with
  appropriate cryptographic devices (KY, STU-III, KG, etc.).
  The MCS shall have sufficient growth capability to accommodate
  new requirements and improved technology as changes occur.
    We anticipate that a firm-fixed price supply contract using
  FAR Part 12 commercial procedures with fully funded annual
  production options will be issued. Therefore the use of commercial
  items is anticipated for appropriate interior modifications,
  communication, and aircraft system upgrades. The use of used
  equipment, if refurbished and reprocurable, is acceptable.
  This program will retire the existing CINC support aircraft
  from the Air Force inventory and replace them with dual role
  KC-135R tankers.  Interested contractors are requested to
  submit the following information as it pertains to their experience
  in modifying aircraft as described above: 1. Company name,
  address, point of contract, telephone number and e-mail address.
  2. Discussions of specific instances (program value, schedule)
  where the contractor has experience in modifying heavy aircraft
  (commercial or military) such as the KC-135R as contemplated
  in this program. 3. Comments related to the plausibility of
  using FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, for this
  acquisition. 4. Evidence of capability to manage a military
  modification program of this magnitude. 5. Evidence of required
  security clearances and secured area necessary to perform the
  modifications.  We anticipate the first aircraft modification
  completed, tested, and delivered to the user by 12 months after
  contract award. However, a Program Management Directive (PMD)
  and required funding for the CINC KC-135R Aircraft Modification
  program have not yet been approved. Therefore this notice is
  for planning purposes only. This notice is not a request for
  proposal (RFP), and shall not be construed as an obligation
  on the part of the Government to acquire any part or all of
  the KC-135R modifications or otherwise pay for the information
  requested and furnished. The information you provide may be
  used by the USAF to ascertain and develop technical and programmatic
  acquisition approaches and/or strategies. Data obtained from
  this request will be considered and may be used for advance
  planning, program phasing, and the definition of tailored technical
  requirements. Identification of the contributing companies
  will not be divulged outside the Government. However, the Government
  reserves the right to use, in whole or part, any industry information
  received as a result of the RFI responses as part of a future
  acquisition strategy. Information you provide will not be used
  as a criteria for the prequalification of respondents for future
  solicitations.   More information about the KC-135R CINC
  Aircraft Modification program (including the Operational Requirements
  Document (ORD)) can be found at the KC-135 PIXS site at http://www.pixs.wpafb.af.mil/pixs/pixslibr/cincam.
  The Government will use this site as its primary means of communicating
  with industry. We have posted additional technical, cost, logistics,
  and contractual questions on this site and we solicit your
  comments by 5 Jan 98 to these question which will help us plan
  the acquisition. The Government plans to host a series of Industry
  Days or site visits the first of which we are planning the
  week of December 15, 1997. Details will be provided to all
  potential contractors via this Internet site. FOR PLANNING
  PURPOSES: The Government anticipates the draft RFP to be available
  on this site by March 1998.  Mr. Michael S. Coalson has been
  appointed as Ombudsman to hear concerns from offerors, or potential
  offerors, during the proposal development. The purpose of the
  Ombudsman is to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements,
  and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel.
  Existence of an Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of
  the program director or the contracting officer. Accordingly,
  the Ombudsman does not participate in the preparation of solicitations,
  the evaluation of proposals or the source selection process
  and, therefore, for routine matters on individual solicitations,

  the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the
  source of the concern. Should you desire to contact the Ombudsman,
  Mr. Coalson can be reached at (937) 255-5535, extension 232.
  All responsible sources may submit a response. Industry responses

DESC: This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial
  items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart
  12.6, as supplemented with additional information included
  in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation;
  proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will
  not be issued. The solicitation number is N66001-98-R-0026,
  and the solicitation is being issued as a request for proposal
  (RFP) by the Department of the Navy, Space and Naval Warfare
  Systems Center, 53560 Hull Street, San Diego, CA 92152-5001.
  The provisions and clauses which apply to this solicitation
  are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 97-03,
  effective date, 16 Dec 97, and the Defense Acquisition Circular,
  effective date, 15 Dec 97. The Standard Industrial Classification
  Code and Small Business Size Standard is 3357 and 1,000 employees.
  The solicitation closing date is 9 Mar 98 at 3:00 p.m. The
  anticipated award date is 30 Mar 98. Award will be made to
  the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation,
  will be most advantageous to the Government, technical capability,
  past performance, and price considered in descending order
  of importance. (Reminder: FAR 52.212 requires that offers must
  show past performance information when past performance is
  included as an evaluation factor. Past performance information
  should include references for whom offerors have previously
  produced small diameter (approximately 0.06 in. diameter) cable
  in continuous lengths of not less than 25 km.). This acquisition
  is for the fabrication, testing, and delivery of an All Optical
  Deployable System (AODS) optical-mechanical trunk cable to
  be used in a Navy underwater surveillance application. Requirements
  include the capability and demonstrated experience to fabricate
  small diameter (less than or equal to 0.06 in.) fiber-optic
  cables, having a parallel lay steel wires strength member,
  fabricated with optical fibers to the required specification,
  as well as the performance of successful tests of the fiber-optic
  cable in accordance with the AODS Trunk Cable Specification
  and CDRL #A001, as discussed below. The Navy intends to award
  a one year, firm fixed price, indefinite delivery/indefinite
  quantity contract. The Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) will
  be 0001; the minimum order for fiber optic cable for the base
  year will be 125 km with a maximum order of 350 km. Deliverables
  for the base year will be CLIN 0002, and will not be separately
  priced. The price proposed shall be by unit, with each unit
  equal to one meter. The cable is to be delivered in 25 km continuous
  span lengths with no more than 3 fiber optic splices in a 25
  km span. Additionally, one of the 25 km lengths may be delivered
  in increments consisting of 1 km or 2.5 km cable sections,
  or any combination thereof which together total 25 km. The
  actual delivery date and amount of cable required will be determined
  with issuance of a delivery order; however, the present expectation
  is that delivery of the first 25 km will be required approximately
  ten weeks following contract award, followed by delivery of
  the second 25 km two weeks later. Thereafter, it is anticipated
  that one 25 km length will be shipped per week until delivery
  order requirements are completed. There are no military specifications;
  commercial standards apply as follows: ISO 9001, "Quality Systems
  - Model for quality assurance in design/development, production,
  installation and servicing;" EIA/TIA-455-60, "Measurement of
  Fiber or Cable length Using an OTDR;" EIA/TIA-455-61, "Measurement
  of Fiber or Cable Attenuation Using an OTDR;" and EIA/TIA-455-78,
  "Spectral Attenuation Cutback Measurement for Single Mode Fibers."
  Requirements include the AODS Trunk Cable Specification, dated
  10 Feb 1998, and Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) A001,
  "Test Inspection Report," dated 17 Nov 97. Both documents will
  be included in the contract by addendum. It is impracticable
  to include the Specification and the CDRL with this synopsis/solicitation.

  quantity type contracts for the supply of brand name and generic
  optical supplies. They include the following: lenses, frames,
  contact lenses, misc (consumables required for fabrication
  process) and identified surge requirements. The intent of this

  will result in lower inventory, personnel and warehousing costs
  and provide the full breadth and scope of brand-named optical
  and optical-related products. This contract will primarily
  support the Naval Ophthalmic Support and Training Activity
  (NOSTRA) located in Yorktown, VA. In addition to NOSTRA, other
  Navy (16 sites) and Army (10 sites) will be covered under this
  contract. Although the Navy sites will be ordering the full
  range of products, the Army sites, initially, may restrict
  their orders to frames. This limited scope of ordering, however,
  may change in the future. DSCP may place orders for additional
  sites in the future.  This is a one year contract with four-1
  year options. Base year est:$3.65 million. Each option estimated
  at $7.3 million. Total contract est: $32.85 million. This is
  a unrestricted acquisition.

DESC: This is a sources sought/market survey synopsis. This is
  not a solicitation. The Smithsonian Institution- Astrophysical
  Observatory (SAO) is seeking sources who can provide a commercial-off-the-shelf
  database software system for the tracking and updating of information
  about proposals, contract and grant awards, and deliverable
  reports. The software must support information for not less
  than 3,000 proposals, contracts and grants, and allow for partial
  awards and incremental funding over multiple time periods.
  A means to notify users when reports are due or overdue must
  be included. The proposal database must be able to track and
  report: the proposal control number, short title, principal
  inves- tigator, project/program manager, funding agency, value,
  and duration. It must also be able to report which proposals
  were lost (not funded) or funded during a particular reporting
  period. The contracts/grants database must be able to track
  and report: fund number, short title, principal investigator,
  project/program manager, project authorization number, start
  date, end date, allotment end date, value, sum allotted, funding
  awarded this year, and contract/grant number. Both databases
  must have multi-user access for both input and reporting. The
  basic software must be commercial off-the-shelf and allow some
  customization by SAO, using vendor-provided software tools
  to enable implementation of specific detailed requirements
  (e.g., data field names, reports, queries). Migration to new
  versions of basic software must be achievable with a minimum
  of effort by SAO. The software must run using existing SAO
  infrastructure for the SAO Contracts/ Grants group (PCs running
  NT 4.0, linked by a Novell network). All applications must
  utilize a standard ODBC database. It is highly desirable that
  any features designed to be used by proposal submitters be
  accessible via a standard web browser, as many submitters at
  SAO use Unix or Mac workstations. The system must accommodate
  extensions to new technologies, such as bi-directional EDI
  for agency submissions, award notifications, and acknowledgements.
  Import of existing data (in dbase format) to the system and
  export of various data from the system to other SAO internal
  systems (also in dbase format) must also be accommodated. The
  system must be Year 2000 compliant. The software must be maintainable
  by SAO personnel on site. Training and 7 x 24 technical support
  must be available from the vendor. Contractor should state
  if the product(s) identified in their response is offered under
  a GSA-FSS contract. Interested sources must include descriptive
  literature describing capabilities of the firm and must include
  sufficient information about the product(s) described so that
  a determination can be made that the product meets the basic
  require- ments of this notice. For any requirements not met
  in current standard software but planned for release within
  calendar year 1998, contractor must provide a published scheduled
  release date. Responses to this announcement must be provided
  no later than 23 March 1998, 4:30 EST. Submit responses to:
  Smithsonian Institution - Astrophysical Observatory, Attn:
  Priscilla O. Waltner, Mail Stop 22, 60 Garden Street, Cambridge,
  MA 02138-1596. This announcement is for information and planning
  purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation for quotations
  or proposals and should not be construed as a commitment by
  the Smithsonian Institution. No funds are available for this
  procurement.

DESC: This solicitation is a combined synopsis/solicitation and
  a bid package will not be issued. The Bureau of Land Management
  (Alaska) has a requirement for one Voice Mail System to support
  their Fairbanks Northern District Office. Voice Mail specifications
  are as follows. Required: Interface with hybrid Nortel (Northern
  Telecom) Meridian PABX. The common and network equipment is
  an Option 61C. The peripheral equipment is SL1N shelves. The
  lines are a mix of analog and SL1 multi-line. The system shall
  support 100 voice mailboxes and shall be modularly expandable*
  to a minimum of 300 voice mailboxes. Number of ports shall
  be for 100 voice mailboxes by purchased voice mail package
  specifications. The number of ports and a minimum of 8 hours
  of storage shall also be modularly expandable*. The voice mailbox
  shall be programmed so that callers have the following capabilities:
  Be able to immediately access a live person, dial another extension,
  or leave a message. Audio prompts shall guide the caller through
  the various options available. Subscribers shall be able to
  configure the mailbox with a menu-driven system and record
  their own messages both locally and from a remote location.
  Subscribers shall be able to: Remotely access and manage their
  mailbox; call in and retrieve, delete, and otherwise organize
  their voice mailbox (e.g. An option for a standard message
  and a vacation message, which messsage greets the caller.);
  and remotely record a new message. This should be menu driven.
  *Modularly expandable means that if 4 ports are purchased and
  in the future 8 ports are needed, we have the ability to add
  4 additional ports instead of purchasing an entirely new 8
  port module. A trade in policy is an acceptable substitute.
  However, if the number of voice mailboxes or storage is increased,
  the previously installed voice mailboxes and storage will not
  have to be reprogrammed. At a minimum we must be able to back
  up and restore what has been previously stored. Options Required
  to be Available are (Provide pricing for these items): Integration
  with Lotus Notes E-Mail package. The post office for Lotus
  Notes is AIX (IBM's flavour of UNIX). The client software is
  AIX, Windows, and Macintosh. Required integration is with Windows
  clients. Integration with AIX and Macintosh clients is preferred.
  For the purposes of voice mail, our LAN is IP based. Ability
  to integrate with other E-Mail software, including POP3 post
  office is considered an advantage. Software shall allow the
  subscriber to manage their voice mailbox and it shall be Windows
  based. Availability of AIX and Macintosh based software is
  an advantage. This solicitation is setaside for small business
  only. Award shall be made on a "Best Value Price" basis and
  other factors. The solicitation requires a quote for FOB Destination
  to the Northern District Office in Fairbanks, Alaska. If you
  are a small business and are interested, please mail your quote
  and information by 12 March 98 to: Bureau of Land Management,

  OPNAV, and PEOs, moderated by Mr. Joseph R. Cipriano, Deputy
  Commander for Warfare Systems, Naval Sea Systems Command, will
  give their perspective on meeting this daunting engineering
  challenge in a resource constrained environment. The Technical

  retains its original objectives through ASNE Day and the publication
  of Naval Engineers Journal and ASNET News, along with other
  programs and member services that promote education and advancement
  of naval engineering.

SUBJECT: ADDENDUM #5 BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT SP050097-BAA01
DESC: ADDENDUM #5 -- CAMP PENDLETON, CAMP LEJEUNE and Other Surrounding
  Marine Corps Sites Broad Agency Announcement SP0500-97-BAA01,
  Amendment #1  The Defense Industrial Supply Center (DISC),
  Philadelphia, is pursuing innovative methods of providing Customer
  Oriented Supply Chain Management (COSCM) in support of spare
  parts at various military centers, bases, camps and posts.
  This Addendum to the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) is issued
  for two Marine Corps sites: Camp Pendleton and Camp Lejeune.
  These sites encompass other Marine Corps activities within
  their respective regions (see Description of Customer Activities).
  This addendum to the BAA covers 1) supply items currently stocked
  in pre-expended bins located near their maintenance areas,
  also known as benchstock, and 2) other items commonly expended
  in the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of land vehicles.
  Land vehicles may include commercial as well as weapons systems,
  wheeled as well as tracked, off-road as well as on-road vehicles.
   This addendum and the following four information sources*
  constitute the entire Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and should
  be referred to in conjunction with each other.  1. A database
  of benchstocked items at Camp Pendleton and surrounding Marine
  Corps Sites (as provided by Camp Pendleton on floppy disks).
  This data encompasses requisition data over a two year period.
  Some items have had no demand during this period of time; 
   2. A database of benchstocked items requisitioned from DLA
  sources (as provided by DISC on floppy disks); 3. Broad Agency
  Announcement (BAA) SP0500-97-BAA01, Amendment #1, Parts Supplier/Parts
  Integrator, Pages 1 through 5; 4. Proposer Information Packet
  (PIP), Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) SP0500-97-BAA01, Addendum
  #5, Camp Pendleton/Camp Lejeune, Pages 1 through 12. * Refer
  to the General Information section of this Addendum for details
  on obtaining these sources. SCOPE The types of items the
  contractor shall be required to provide as part of COSCM are
  catalogued under Federal Supply Classes (FSCs) 3030, 3110,
  3120, 3130, 4010, 4020, 5305, 5306, 5307, 5310, 5315, 5320,
  5325, 5330, 5331, 5335, 5339, 5340, 5345, 5350, 5355, 5360,
  5364, 5365, 6220, 6240. These items are specific parts associated
  with land vehicle maintenance, repair and overhaul at Camp
  Pendleton, Camp Lejeune and related customer sites. These items
  must conform to specifications, standards, quality conformance,
  quality certifications, identification and shelf-life requirements
  as defined by the applicable item description. The resultant
  contract will have a base period of 2 years with 3 one year
  option periods, for a maximum of five years. Any award(s) will
  be made for either both sites combined or each site separately.
   Customer Expectations The customer's expectations for this
  initiative include utilizing a total supply chain manager of
  integrated logistics that provides a 100% fill rate including
  forecasting, engineering and technical services and provides
  reliable direct industry surge and sustainment capability.
  Support is expected to be provided to all Deployed Support
  Units (DSU) at all locations at all times.  It is anticipated
  that adopting this program will result in the reduction of
  total logistics costs, the elimination of redundancy and simplification
  of current procedures and a reduction in the time required
  to accomplish the customer's overhaul and maintenance mission.
   The vendor may also be required to supply related items that
  have not been defined as "benchstock" on an as needed bases,
  based on Customer request for support. DESCRIPTION OF CUSTOMER
  ACTIVITIES The following description of customer activities
  provides a simple outline of current operations at Camp Pendleton
  and Camp Lejeune. Prospective vendors should attend the site
  visits which are scheduled for both locations in order to obtain
  more information and clarification about each activity and
  surrounding sites. Each Marine Corps site will also provide
  maps of various activities at the bases and clarify their expectations
  of supply support resulting from this solicitation. The mission
  of both bases is to maintain combat ready units for expeditionary
  deployment. In general, both bases are supported by an Intermediate
  Maintenance Unit (IMU) which consists of Electronics, Engineering,
  General Support, Motor Transport and Ordnance departments.
  The IMU performs repair and general support to equipment utilized
  by the 60-70 Marine Corps units at Camp Pendleton and 104 Marine
  Corps units at Camp Lejeune located throughout the base. These
  units also perform their own repairs but refer more complex
  tasks to the IMU. It is anticipated that approximately 50%
  of the units at both bases would be initiatially supported
  by this effort as well as the IMUs. Camp Pendleton area:
  Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Pendleton, Oceanside, CA; approximately
  30 miles north of San Diego;  Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat
  Center (MCAGCC) 29 Palms, 29 Palms, CA; approximately 50 miles

  Lejeune and Surrounding Marine Corps Sites  Introduction
  The Defense Industrial Supply Center (DISC) is using the Broad
  Agency Announcement (BAA) process to select a successful concept
  that has a high probability of resulting in improvement of
  the logistics support provided by DISC to Marine Corps customers
  located in North Carolina, South Carolina, Southern California
  and western Arizona. Camp Pendleton and Camp Lejeune are primarily
  responsible for the repair, maintenance, and overhaul of land
  vehicles, both commercial vehicles and weapons systems, wheeled
  and tracked, off-road and on-road. The selected concept will
  encapsulate methods that will provide Customer Oriented Supply
  Chain Management (COSCM) in support of industrial spare parts
  requirements, known as benchstock, for the repair, maintenance,
  and overhaul of land vehicles. This Proposer Information Packet
  and the following information sources, together, constitute
  the entire Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and should be referred
  to in conjunction with each other. No other information is
  available. 1. A database of benchstocked items at Camp Pendleton
  and surrounding Marine Corps Sites (as provided by Camp Pendleton
  on floppy disks). This data encompasses requisition data over
  a two year period. Some items have had no demand during this

  This announcement is an expression of interest only and does
  not commit the Government to make any award or to pay for any
  proposal preparation costs. DISC does not anticipate issuing
  a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) or any solicitation document.
  Prospective offerors are cautioned that only a contracting
  officer is legally authorized to obligate the Government to
  commitments. I PROGRAM OBJECTIVES This program will encompass
  approximately 20,000 items of industrial hardware (benchstock)
  for land vehicle repair, maintenance, and overhaul. DISC is
  seeking to incorporate innovative logistics support methods,
  currently being demonstrated in private industry, by forming
  a strategic alliance with a private sector partner. By partnering
  with a parts supplier/parts integrator and/or "prime vendor,"
  DISC expects to capitalize on the total supply chain management
  and integrated logistics efforts. As a single source of supply,
  the vendor will be expected to furnish industrial spare parts,
  efficient supply chain management, inventory control, forecasting,
  engineering services, technical services, and configuration
  management. The vendor is also expected to provide information
  technology to improve logistics support, eliminating redundancies
  and simplifying procedures. The implementation of such a program
  is expected to result in a reduction of total logistics costs
  and a reduction in the time required to accomplish the customer's
  overhaul and maintenance mission. The resultant contract will
  be for a base period of two (2) years and three (3) one year
  options for a maximum possible five (5) years. II. CURRENT
  PROCEDURES There are approximately 20 benchstock areas, among
  the Camp Pendleton sites. There are approximately 25 benchstock
  areas in the Camp Lejeune site. All are located in high intensity
  maintenance areas. There are also moderate intensity and low
  intensity maintenance areas that are served from these benchstock
  locations. A typical benchstock area is unattended and consists
  of shelves containing bins. As mechanics identify the need
  for a part, they go to the benchstock area, withdraw the required
  parts/quantities, and indicate on their shopping list that
  the source for the parts was the unit's benchstock. A vendor
  will come to the benchstock area to do an inventory check and
  order replacement stock.  III. EXPECTATIONS A. The customer
  has the following expectations for this initiative: 1. A prime
  vendor who acts as a parts supplier/parts integrator, supplying
  and managing all benchstock parts (all items must conform to
  specifications, standards, quality conformance, quality certifications,
  identification and shelf life requirements as defined by the
  Purchase Item Description (PID) (including all applicable drawings);
   2. A total supply chain manager of integrated logistics that
  participates in all planning meetings and provides: a. 100%
  supply availability, anticipating customer's needs and maintaining
  the required inventory levels; b. Forecasting and tracking
  of material usage and costs; c. Engineering and technical
  services, and configuration management; 3. Reliable direct
  industry surge and sustainment capability; all Deployed Support
  Units are to be supported at all times; 4. Implementation
  of information technology that interfaces with organic information
  systems in a transparent manner; 5. Elimination of redundancy
  and simplification of procedures;  6. Quality parts equal
  to or greater than those currently provided; 7. Reduction
  in contract prices in each option year as productivity efficiencies
  are achieved; 8. Easy access to a customer service representative
   We invite concept papers that take advantage of state-of-the-art
  technology and innovative contracting to achieve these goals.
   CUSTOMER SITE VISIT To assist offerors in developing an effective
  Concept Paper, a site visit will be conducted at Camp Pendleton
  on March 10 and with Camp Lejeune on March 17. Attendance will
  not be required for submitting a Concept Paper. All visitors
  must register with the contracting officer not later than March
  6 in order to gain entrance to Camp Pendleton and/or Camp Lejeune.
  The site visit(s) will consist of a limited tour of some of
  the facilities and an opportunity to view some of the materials
  to be provided. Visitors may ask questions for the purpose
  of clarifying customers' support needs; however, there will
  be no discussions regarding contractual content or agreements.
    IV. SUBMISSION PROCESS Concept Papers Concept Papers must
  conform to format and content requirements specified in Section
  VI and must be received by the bid opening officer cited above
  by: April 10, 1998; 1:00PM EST Concept Papers received on
  or before that date will be evaluated for utilization at Camp
  Pendleton and Camp Lejeune and related customer sites. Offerors
  will be notified if Concept Papers are received after the cutoff
  date. Late Concept Papers may be evaluated for feasibility
  or utilization at other sites. Concept Papers are not to exceed
  50 pages, typed, 12 point type or larger, double-spaced, single-sided,
  8-1/2" x 11" paper. If more than 50 pages are submitted, only
  the first 50 pages will be considered. All Concept Papers
  and abstracts will be reviewed by Government officials only
  and will be treated as proprietary data. Concepts submitted
  by FAX , E-MAIL or other electronic medium will not be accepted.
   V. EVALUATION PROCESS & EVALUATION FACTORS Evaluation Process
   Concept Papers will be evaluated against the established
  criteria set forth herein. Submitters may be required to give
  an oral presentation of their proposal. When the Concept Paper
  evaluation is completed, each submitter will be notified of
  eligibility for further discussions. Customer affordability
  is an important factor in making an eligibility decision.
  The final award decision will reflect an integrated analysis
  of the concept technical merit and concept price. For the final
  evaluation, technical merit will be more important than price.
   All Concept Papers will be considered proprietary. All responsible
  sources capable of satisfying the Government's needs may submit
  a Concept Paper which shall be considered by DISC. A. Pricing
  Methodolgy Evaluation Concept Papers must address pricing
  methodology. Those proposals that demonstrate price reductions
  over the life of the contract will be considered more favorably.
  All pricing methodologies will be evaluated for cost/price
  realism. B. Technical Proposal Evaluation The offeror shall
  fully address in the Concept Paper each of the following areas
  that will be examined as part of the evaluation process. The
  factors are listed in descending order of importance. Note:
  If a Concept Paper cannot support factors 1 and 2, Customer-Oriented
  Supply Chain Management Concept and Industrial Readiness Support
  Concept respectively, there will be no further evaluation of
  the remaining factors. 1. Customer Oriented Supply Chain Management
   The Government will evaluate the concept for its ability to
  provide supplies, efficient supply chain management, inventory
  control, on-site stock area management, forecasting, engineering
  services, technical services, and configuration management
  that will ensure that the necessary supplies and a tailored
  inventory management system are available for full support
  of industrial and/or base level support activities. The Government
  will evaluate the concept to ensure that it provides a transition
  to 100% fill-rate, which will provide an uninterrupted flow
  of spare parts and industrial industrial hardware to the line
  mechanics and technicians during both normal operations and
  surge periods. Therefore, the Concept Paper should give sufficient
  detail so that the Government can understand the offeror's
  inventory control procedures, distribution plan, customer service
  plan, and quality control plan for all levels of operations.
   a. Technical Feasibility The Government will evaluate the
  COSCM concept to ensure that the offeror has the capability
  to perform in accordance with the concept submitted. b. Realism
  of Expected Outcomes The Government will evaluate the COSCM
  concept for realism. That is, the Government will evaluate
  the concept paper to ensure that it is realistic for the work
  to be performed, that the various elements of the concept are
  consistent. 2. Industrial Readiness Support Concept The Government
  will evaluate the concept submitted to ensure that supplies
  and supply chain management will be sustained in case of national
  emergency and will achieve industrial mobilization in time
  of war, international turmoil, and any other unexpected surges
  in requirements. Therefore, the concept should describe the
  approach to supporting this initiative and the manner in which
  the offeror will possess: a. The ability to forecast and react
  to surge requirements. b. The ability to rapidly escalate
  the operating tempo to support surge requirements and maintain
  level of sustainment. 3. Information Technology The Concept
  Paper will be evaluated to ensure that the vendor's approach
  to information technology provides for a seamless interface
  with the Government and an open exchange of information between
  customer, suppliers and DoD through state-of-the-art technology.
  Vendor's information systems must demonstrate the capability
  for interfacing with organic information systems in a manner
  that is transparent to the end user. In addition, the Government
  will evaluate the concept to determine the extent to which
  the vendor currently employs such a system, and has the capability
  to implement such a system in any resultant contract.  4.
  Past Performance/Corporate Experience The Government will
  evaluate offeror's past performance on efforts of similar scale
  and scope in order to assess the offeror's relative capability
  and trustworthiness, and thus the relative reliability of the
  offeror's promises. The Offeror shall submit a listing of prior
  Government and Commercial contracts similar to the one offered
  in the Concept Paper. As a minimum the offeror shall submit
  information on each referenced contract in the following format:
   a. name of project and/or contract number; b. company or
  Government Agency's name, address, phone number and point of
  contact;  c. the supplies and services furnished under the
  contract; d. the contract type (firm fixed price, cost plus
  fixed fee, etc.) and total value; e. the delivery requirements
  of the contract, your performance in meeting those deliveries
  and a description of any problems in performance and/or corrective
  actions taken with regard to the contract. The offeror should
  note that the Government may also seek past performance information
  from other sources known to the Government to assist in its
  evaluation. 5. Management Plan The Government will evaluate
  the organization's controls and managerial approach over its
  workforce, suppliers, distribution and quality systems. The
  Government will evaluate the submitter's plan for selecting
  and monitoring performance of suppliers and subcontractors
  to ensure receipt of parts and material consistent with distribution
  needs and quality standards. Therefore, the Concept Paper should
  include information regarding your organizational and management
  plans. The Government will also request descriptive information
  regarding managerial/supervisory personnel dedicated to support
  the planned contract. The Government will evaluate the level
  of experience of these persons and their abilities in managing
  the COSCM process under the contract. 6. Competition Goals.
   The Government will evaluate the offeror's contractual alliances
  with suppliers, subcontractors and other supply chain components
  to ensure that there is robust competition at the supplier
  level. The Government will evaluate the Concept Paper to ensure
  that such alliances or contractual relationships exist with
  the offeror and how this will ultimately benefit the Government
  in terms of cost effectiveness, availability, and quality.
  Therefore, the Concept Paper should address the offerors contractual
  relationships, how the offeror employs these relationships
  to ensure competition at the supplier level for cost effectiveness,
  availability, and quality. 7. Small Business/Small Disadvantaged
  Business Program/Women Owned Subcontracting Plan  The Government
  will evaluate both large and small business offers to determine
  what portion of their proposal will be subcontracted to Small
  Business(SB), Small Disadvantage Business(SDB), and Women Owned
  Business(WOB) concerns in terms of percentages and dollars.
  The offeror should submit a plan for providing real business
  opportunity for SB, SDB, and WOB including specific socioeconomic
  objectives for each year of the contract. DLA Mentoring Business
  Agreements(MBA) Program as Found in DLAR 52.219-9002 or DLAR
  42.219-9003. The Government will evaluate the offeror's plans
  to develop maximum opportunity for small businesses and small
  disadvantaged businesses by participating in the DLA Mentoring
  Business Agreements (MBA) program (DLAR 52.219-9002/9003).
  The DLA MBA Program ensures that small and small disadvantage
  business concerns fully participate in the COSCM program. A
  plan should be submitted that will address how the offer has
  or will obtain one or more agreements between itself and a
  SB or SDB. VI. CONCEPT FORMAT AND CONTENT Concept Paper
  Concept papers must be clearly marked with the words, "CONCEPT
  PAPER," and must include the following sections, each starting
  on a new page. A. Section I - Administrative BAA number
  Addendum number  Points of contact Name of business Type
  of business (e.g. large, small, disadvantaged) B. Section
  II - Detailed Proposal Information. Concept Content All offerors
  must address their technical approach to achieving the program
  objectives and expectations presented in this PIP. The Concept
  Paper should describe the vendor's approach to supporting this
  initiative and the manner in which it will maintain sources,
  manufacturers, producers and other suppliers available for
  the furnishing of these spare parts and other services in times
  of peace and national emergency, and to achieve industrial
  mobilization in time of war, international turmoil, and any
  surges in requirements. The concept will include the complete
  pricing methodology. The concept should present, in plain
  English, a detailed discussion of the proposed work that will
  allow for Government evaluation in accordance with the factors
  listed in Section V, including, but not be limited to: an
  outline of the scope of the effort and a description of the
  specific tasks to be performed and specific contractor requirements;
   a discussion of vendor's experience providing support similar
  to the proposed concept, and the advantages and disadvantages
  over alternative concepts. Specific attention must be given
  to addressing both risk and payoff of the proposed work that
  make it desirable to DISC/DLA; a description of the facilities
  that would be used for the proposed work;  a description of
  any incentive provisions that will motivate the offeror to
  effectively manage costs, enhance supply availability and offer
  the Government a better value; an explanation of how the vendor
  will reduce costs, improve efficiencies, and save the Government
  money over the life of the contract; and a description of
  performance guarantees and anticipatory services (e.g., forecasting,
  engineering and technical).
