  AFB OH 45433-7607. This is an unrestricted solicitation. Small
  businesses are encouraged to propose on all or any part of
  this solicitation. Proposals submitted shall be in accordance
  with this announcement. Proposal receipt after the cutoff date
  and time specified herein shall be treated in accordance with
  restrictions of FAR 52.215-1(c)(3); copy of this provision
  may be obtained from the contracting point of contact. There
  will be no other solicitation issued in regard to this requirement.
  Offerors should be alert for any PRDA amendments that may permit
  subsequent submission of proposal dates. Offerors should request
  a copy of the WL Guide entitled, "PRDA and BAA Guide for Industry"
  dated November 1992. This guide was specifically designed to
  assist offerors in understanding the PRDA/BAA proposal process.
  Copies may be requested from the Contracting Office Point of
  Contact stated above. The Guide is also available on-line on
  www.wl.wpafb.af.mil/contract. B-REQUIREMENTS: (1) Technical
  Description: The purpose of this effort is to develop reproducible,
  predictable high quality epitaxial growth processes for III-V
  semiconductor heterostructures with mixed anion components,
  that is, heterostructures wherein the group V anion changes
  across the heterostructure interface. The program will be restricted
  to high vacuum growth techniques such as molecular beam epitaxy
  (MBE) or chemical beam epitaxy (CBE) and will not include group
  III-nitride semiconductors. Material systems of interest include
  as examples InGaAs/InP and InAs/GaSb. Other systems may be
  proposed. The emphasis of the program will be on development
  of reproducible production worthy processes as opposed to basic
  research. Three tasks to be addressed are modeling of the growth
  processes, process development and epitaxial growth of heterostructures,
  and characterization and evaluation of heterostructures. The
  goal of the program is to develop atomically abrupt and atomically
  smooth interfaces without cross contamination of group V elements
  over wafers with a minimum diameter of three inches. This technology
  will be enabling for improved device performance in high frequency
  microwave and millimeter wave devices such as heterostructure
  field effect transistors (HFET's) and heterojunction bipolar
  transistors (HBT's). Device design and development will not
  be included in the program but fabrication and testing of existing
  devices for demonstration of improved performance is encouraged.

  Center for Research Resources (NCRR)) with the American Type
  Culture Collection (ATCC) for the acquisition, preservation,
  authentication, and distribution of biomedically relevant,
  taxonomically related cells, microorganisms, viruses, and DNA
  materials as Collections. NIH has continuously contracted with
  ATCC since 1974 for these services. This requirement is for
  an additional five years. The ATCC is a non-profit organization
  established in 1925 and is this country's only long-term repository
  and distribution center which functions as a "museum" for living
  microorganisms, viruses, cell lines and DNA, plus other reagents.
  By collecting, certifying to their purity and authenticity,
  propagating, distributing, and referencing such materials,
  ATCC provides invaluable research support vital to the advancement
  of biomedical research. The repository functions of the ATCC
  are essential to NCRR's mission of providing a number of diverse
  research sources to biomedical researchers. Authenticated cultures
  are the principal starting materials for much biomedical research.
  If such cultures are not available, or if they are contaminated
  or incorrectly identified, there would be a considerable waste
  of research time and funds. NIH knows of no other organization
  that can provide these services. Authority: 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1)
  as set forth in FAR 6.302-1. Interested respondents must submit
  written capability statements demonstrating the ability to
  provide the same repository materials and distribution center,
  as well as the facilities and staffing to perform these services,

DESC: The U.S. Army Simulation, Training and Instrumentation
  Command (STRICOM) desires industry interface to gain information
  on available products and technologies to further define/refine
  the requirements and the acquisition approach for a Mobile
  Infrared Scene Projector (MIRSP) system. The MIRSP is a U.S.
  Army major technical test instrumentation project designed
  to support the Test and Evaluation (T&E) of Department of Defense
  weapons systems under the T&E mission area.   The MIRSP primary
  program objectives will be to develop a mobile version of the
  Dynamic Infrared Scene Projector (DIRSP), providing a new capability
  to test Second Generation Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) target
  acquisition sensors, as well as Imaging Infrared missiles mounted
  on ground or aircraft weapon systems. The MIRSP will present
  realistic complex and dynamic in-band target imagery and background
  to the sensors. The MIRSP will also evaluate IR sensors/subsystems
  while installed on their tactical platform in the field environment.
  This will allow extensive testing of the complete weapon system
  in a static operational mode, under shelter, prior to dynamic
  field operational scenarios. Examples of weapon systems/platforms
  that will be integrating and testing their current and upgraded
  FLIR systems over the next 3-5 years are: Reconnaissance Attack
  Helicopter (RAH-66) Comanche; Longbow Apache; Blackhawk; Kiowa
  Warrior-Armed; UH-60Q Medivac Helicopter; Special Operation
  Forces MK-60 Helicopter; Improved Target Acquisition System
  (ITAS); M2/M3-A3 Bradley Improved Bradley Acquisition Subsystem
  (IBAS); and other Horizontal Technology Integration (HTI) B-Kit
  Second Generation FLIR platforms.   Information is being
  requested at this time specifically on developed or developing
  technologies and products, such as: resistor emitter errays;
  non-uniformity correction; projection optics; mobile shelters/platforms;
  control electronics; environmental conditioning; and electronic
  packaging techniques. Information is also requested, if available,
  on the integration and fitting of these technologies onto a
  rugged portable/mobile system/subsystem configuration. The
  Government MIRSP Integrated Product Team (IPT) believes industry
  feedback is vitally important. The IPT will be receptive to
  any and all ideas received from industry which would result
  in eliminating constraining requirements, would realize cost
  savings, or would highlight potential technical or contractual
  problems or conflicts associated with the MIRSP program. Information

POC Dr. Edward M. Carapezza, DARPA/TTO, FAX (703) 696-2204
DESC: PROGRAM OBJECTIVES AND DESCRIPTION: The Defense Advanced
  Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting proposals for
  research, development, integration and demonstration of miniature,
  unattended ground sensors and related technologies. The underlying
  long-term objective is to support the real-time prosecution
  of time critical mobile targets, combat vehicles and dismounted
  soldiers, and to support the characterization of high value
  man-made structures, surface and underground facilities, with
  miniature, low power, cost effective, fields of unattended
  sensors. These miniature, unattended ground sensor systems,
  used singularly or internetted together, will provide a local,
  in-situ detection, tracking and identification capability near
  high value man-made facilities or at choke points in denied
  areas and information provided by these sensors will be fused
  with other longer range space, airborne, and ground sensor
  systems to enhance the aggregate surveillance and tracking
  capabilities of US forces. DARPA is seeking innovative concepts
  for developing and integrating technologies, in the area of
  miniature, unattended ground sensors, that will provide a leap
  ahead capability for future DoD operations. PROGRAM SCOPE:
  The goals of the Micro Unattended Ground Sensor program are
  to demonstrate advanced sensors systems, including sensor delivery,
  emplacement, and attachment systems, that will provide a significant
  unattended tactical sensing capability to detect, track, and
  classify time critical mobile targets and to characterize man-made
  structures, including the type of machinery utilized and the
  type of activities ongoing in these structures. Of interest
  are miniature, low power, unattended sensor systems that will
  provide a significant detection, localization, and classification
  advantage for our ground forces over potential enemy capabilities
  in counter detection, counter localization, and counter classification.
  Sensor systems providing a significant precision targeting
  capability to enable timely requests for indirect fire support,
  including sensor systems in which surveillance and targeting
  information can be exfiltrated and used by airborne assets
  such as JSTARS and related platforms are of interest. In order
  to achieve the program goals, research and development will
  be needed in several areas, including but not limited to, low
  power, miniature, high performance sensors, mixed signal sensor
  system interfaces including analog to digital convertors, digital
  signal processing, communications and related internetting
  protocols, data fusion and track correlation, sensor pre-deployment
  planning, and real-time analysis and display technologies.
  Affordable, miniature, unattended sensor systems, useful in
  environments ranging from open terrain to the more restrictive
  urban environment, are of primary interest. For scenarios related
  to urban environments, sensors to facilitate the remote surveillance
  of both the exterior and interior of multi-story structures,
  in preparation for building assault operations, or indirect
  targeting by tactical air assets, are of interest. Other restrictive
  environments, such as forested, littoral, and mountainous,
  are also of interest. Miniature, affordable, unattended acoustic,
  magnetic, seismic, chemical, biological, imaging, and environmental
  sensor systems, that can be used singularly or internetted
  together, can be tailored for optimum use in the open and restrictive
  environments described above, can be packaged into low power
  configurations and can be hand emplaced, delivered by ballistic
  projectiles such as 40mm, mortar, artillery rounds, by missile
  systems (such as Multiple Launch Rocket System, MLRS, or Army
  Tactical Missile System, ATACMS), by tactical aircraft, unmanned
  air vehicles, and unmanned ground vehicles, are of interest.
  Operational utility models, studies, and simulations relating
  various configurations of unattended sensors to longer range
  space, airborne, and ground surveillance assets, are also of
  interest. Configurations of interest include very small fields
  of high performance sensor nodes (from 1 to 3 nodes), larger
  fields of less capable, very low cost, micro unattended ground
  sensors (greater than 3 nodes), and hybrid mixes of these two
  bounding configurations. EVALUATION CRITERIA: Proposals will
  be evaluated using the following criteria in descending order
  of importance: (1) Quality and Technical Merit, (2) Contributions/Relevance
  to DARPA and DoD, (3) Capabilities and Experience, (4) Plans
  and Capabilities to Accomplish Technology Transfer, and (5)
  Total Cost and Cost Realism (NOTE: Cost realism will be used
  as an evaluation criterion only in proposals which have significantly
  under or over estimated the cost to complete the effort). All
  awards made in response to this BAA will be subject to availability
  of government funds. Evaluations and selection or non-selection
  of proposals for funding will be made on the basis of the evaluation
  criteria listed and the overall balance considered most advantageous
  to the DARPA Tactical Sensor Program. GENERAL INFORMATION:
  DARPA has budgeted approximately $2.0 million for FY 1998,
  $4.0 million for FY99 and $4.0M for FY00. Multiple awards typically
  of 12-36 month duration are anticipated. Offerors should prepare
  proposals with a baseline period of performance of 12 months
  and with one or two options each with a 12 month period of
  performance, and with anticipated contract award dates in June
  1998. This BAA will remain open for 6 months from the date
  of publication. The proposals are due on or before 4:00 PM
  (EST), February 27, 1998, in order to be considered for FY98
  funding. Offerors must submit an original and six (6) copies
  of proposals to the administrative address for this BAA. It
  is the policy of DARPA to treat all proposals as competitive
  information and to disclose the contents only for the purposes
  of evaluation. Nondisclosure notices notwithstanding, proposals
  may be handled for administrative purposes by employees of
  two support contractors, System Planning Corporation (SPC)
  and Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC).
  Selections under this BAA will be made only by Government evaluators.
  This CBD notice, in conjunction with the pamphlet BAA98-18
  Proposer Information Package (PIP), constitutes the Broad Agency
  Announcement as contemplated by FAR 6.102(d)(2). Addresses
  for obtaining the PIP are provided at the end of this notice.

DESC: ~~~The University of California, which operates the Los
  Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) under contract to the Department
  of Energy, solicits interest from companies wishing to license,
  develop, and market a new invention for positioning and micromachining
  millimeter-sized parts with submicron accuracy. This new device,
  referred to as either the "Reversible Micromachining Locator"
  or the "Quick-Flip Locator," can hold miniature parts (from
  0 to several millimeters in diameter) securely in place while
  leaving both sides of the part accessible for machining, polishing,
  or inspection. Once the part is positioned in the mount, the
  whole part and mount assembly can be moved from one machine
  to another in seconds with no loss of accuracy. In contrast,
  the remounting and repositioning required by conventional methods
  often takes hours without ever achieving the precision offered
  by the Quick-Flip Locator. This reduction in set-up time makes
  micromachining with the new locator up to four times faster
  than with conventional processes. Among the many objects that
  can be machined or inspected with the Quick-Flip Locator are
  miniature optics, watch parts, printer heads, automotive injector
  parts, medical/surgical equipment, small motors, gear reduction
  units, and photomask lenses. One version of the new invention
  allows the positioning of two parts simultaneously for precise
  assembly. LANL is seeking industrial partners to commercialize
  this technology. A commercial, royalty-bearing license is the
  technology transfer mechanism necessary for the selected partner(s)
  to make, use, and sell this technology which LANL has applied
  to patent. Interested companies must possess existing capabilities
  in manufacturing, marketing, and support services in the domestic
  marketplace. These companies must respond with a formal statement
  of intent briefly describing their specific interest in this
  technology and how they foresee it being used (either internally,
  manufactured for sale, or both). Also include in the letter
  a description of your company's technical expertise, manufacturing
  and marketing capabilities, anticipated financial resources
  available to transfer the technology, motivation for entering
  into a technology transfer agreement, and other relevant company
  information (annual report, corporate resume, etc.). This statement
  must be dated within 30 calendar days of this notice.

DESC: The Upper Columbia Area Office, Yakima, Washington has
  a requirement to modernize their data collection system on
  the Hydromet. Currently remote (dial-in) users login to VAX
  and run a utility called MANPOL which allows them to poll and
  an individual site, a predefined group of sites, or the entire
  system of EG&G sites. Furthermore, they can specify whether
  the data is simply presented on the screen or else routed to
  DMS Dayfiles. The EG&G system will be replaced by a radio network
  of SSP units (8210's with 9000 concentrator). PCBASE2 running
  on an NT 4.0 server will function as the base station for this
  system. It will poll the field units on a regular interval.
  The problems are: the data collected by PCBASE2 needs to be
  post-processed and stored under the VAX DMS system. Remote
  (dial-in) users need to poll select sites in real-time. During
  the field site transition from EG&G to Sutron, the dial-in
  user will need to be able to poll either site. At this time
  we anticipate a sole source award, in accordance with FAR 6.302-1,
  to Sutron Integrated Systems Division, 21300 Ridgetop Cir,
  Sterling VA 2016-6520. All sources requesting a copy of this
  RFQ shall do so in writing. Telephone requests will not be

  . The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is seeking
  to develop partnerships with the commercial telecommunications
  industry to enable new science missions to be achieved at geostationary
  orbit. NASA is exploring opportunities for on-orbit services
  for relevant science instruments on commercial telecommunications
  satellites as secondary payloads which are within launch mass
  margins and operate within the beginning-of-life (BOL) resource
  margins of the satellite. These payloads would be on a non-interference
  basis with the primary mission of the satellite. To implement
  the business approach, the Langley Research Center (LaRC) will
  invite the commercial telecommunications industry to enter
  in to a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) to provide future on-orbit
  services flight opportunities for secondary payload science
  instruments NASA may select. The BOA will be used in a test
  mode as a pilot program for one year. The BOA may be renewed
  after the initial period if deemed appropriate. The BOA solicitation
  will also request an offer for the on-orbit services for the
  Geoexpress Pathfinder instrument (GXPI). All qualified vendors
  will be awarded a BOA however, individual flight opportunities
  will be competed amongst the BOA recipients. The BOA solicitation
  will request general information on all potential flight opportunities
  and detailed flight opportunity information for the Geoexpress
  Pathfinder instrument. The information to be requested includes;
  gelocation, ITU/FCC license status, estimates of mass and power
  that can be allocated to secondary payloads and other interface
  limitations.

DESC: I. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial
  items prepared in accordance with the format in the Federal
  Acquisition Regulation (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. II. This solicitation
  is issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ) 98-C-02. III. The
  solicitation document and incorporated provisions are those
  in effect through the FAR Subpart 12.3. IV. This solicitation
  is not a small business set-aside. V. The U.S. Railroad Retirement
  Board (RRB) is an independent agency in the Executive Branch
  of the Federal Government and is responsible for the administering
  the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA) and the Railroad Unemployment
  Insurance Act (RUIA). The Railroad Retirement System is administered
  by claims examiners processing and posting claims in claims
  files located in a folder/file bank. About 12,000 new claim
  folders are created each year and approximately 175,000 claim
  folders are extracted from the claim bank each year for adjustment
  or inquiry purposes. The RRB intends to acquire an electronic
  document imaging and workflow system to alleviate the problems
  attendant to the handling of paper claims folders. It intends
  to image newly filed claims and the claims annually extracted
  from the file bank. The focus shall be image only folders with
  current activity. The RRB desires to provide access to the
  imaged folder documents to about 300 users on Local Area Network
  (LAN) equipment. Later phases will increase users to about
  800 both at the Chicago, Illinois Headquarters facility and
  in 53 field offices nationwide. Under Phase I (Feasibility
  Study) of the Document Imaging Project, the RRB Office of Programs
  (RRB-OP) has completed a Documents Control Requirements Analysis
  under contract with GTE Government Systems Corporation. VI.
  The RRB-OP is currently in Phase 2 (Planning) of the Document
  Imaging Project. The planning has been distributed to multiple
  teams working on various aspects of planning for the introduction
  of this technology. These teams and their charters are as follows:
  DOCUMENT TEAM - this team has been studying what RRA claims
  materials will be imaged. This team is determining the external
  and internal (computer generated) material associated with
  the claims processing. IMAGING TEAM - This team has been studying
  the options for an imaging operation. It is considering the
  following items: the use of in-house versus a service bureau
  for imaging; purchase versus leasing of equipment; centralized
  versus de-centralized imaging operation; and the development
  of a cost-benefit-analysis document for imaging. WORKFLOW TEAM
  - This team is documenting the current workflow processes to
  optimally configure the workflow software. USER TEAM - This
  team is documenting the users of the imaged files to determine
  equipment and bandwidth requirements. UNEMPLOYMENT CONVERSION
  TEAM - This team is studying the requirements for converting
  a small existing document imaging system for unemployment and
  sickness claims (PaperWise software) to the new system. The
  contractor shall assist the teams in analyzing imaging and
  workflow requirements, and evaluating design alternatives that
  incorporate work management product functionality. The contractor
  shall provide the RRB-OP with written feedback assessment of
  the teams' proposed solution documents. The contractor, in
  response to a submitted team draft report and their initial
  on-site meeting with the team(s), shall review and comment
  on specific aspects of any and all of the proposed team reports
  listed above. Due to the daily interface of the RRB-OP benefits
  system, with that of the Social Security Administration (SSA),
  the document imaging and workflow system that is developed
  must be compatible with the SSA's document imaging and workflow
  system. VII. Scope - the contractor will provide assistance
  in evaluating the functional and technical specifications developed
  by the RRB-OP teams for the installation of a document imaging
  and workflow management system. VIII. Specific Tasks - The

  DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
SOL N/A
DUE 020498
POC Craig D. Partridge, Contracting Officer, (202) 268-4310
DESC: The United States Postal Service (USPS) desires to prequalify
  contract sources to design and develop a professional skills
  assessment, development, certification, and training curriculum
  for its Field Customer Relations organization. The Program
  will be national in scope and integrated with the CustomerPerfect!sm
  quality improvement process. The objective is to combine the
  best of academic theory and real-world applications to develop
  a state-of-the-art education program that will provide the
  requisite skill sets and proficiency levels to enable USPS
  Customer Relations to meet and surpass customer satisfaction
  and revenue objectives. The Program will consist of the following
  five components: 1. Skills Profiles to be used as "benchmarks"
  for establishing proficiency targets and for developing specific
  training programs to raise proficiency levels, 2. Proficiency
  Assessment Tools that will enable Area and District Business
  Customer Relations Managers to assess the proficiency levels
  of subordinate employees and to identify specific developmental
  needs, 3. Certification Program, which will be national in
  scope and tailored to key Customer Relations functions/groups,
  4. Measurement and Adjustment Process that will provide both
  quantitative and qualitative feedback on the success of the
  Program and a structured process for improvement, and 5. Curriculum
  Statement of Work for the design, management and administration
  of a Customer Relations Education Curriculum. The fifth component
  is an optional requirement that may be awarded to another prequalified
  contract source pursuant to this procurement action or pursuant
  to a separate contract action. USPS is encouraging the use
  of partnering or subcontracting arrangements for the development
  and delivery of the specific program components and/or project
  requirements. Interested companies seeking to be prequalified
  must submit a Letter of Interest to the POC's attention requesting
  a Prequalification Application Package for USPS Customer Relations
  Professional Development Program. The name, address (including
  ZIP+4), and telephone number of the company representative
  who is designated to receive the application package must be
  clearly indicated. The application package will provide interested
  parties with a more detailed overview and requirements definition
  of the Program, Customer Relations' organizational roles and
  responsibilities for its Managed Commercial Account Base, the
  prequalification evaluation factors and scoring method, response
  submission instructions, and procedures for USPS selection
  and notification. Prequalification evaluation will focus principally
  on: 1. Past Performance, including relevance of prior experience
  (e.g., sales and customer satisfaction training-related programs
  in comparable business situations), and 2. Performance Capability.
  It is the intent of the USPS to award this contract using the
  prequalified sources. Interested parties are hereby advised
  that all qualified sources may not be placed on the prequalified
  list if the purchase team determines (a) that a smaller group
  will provide adequate competition or (b) that some sources
  are considerably more qualified than others, thereby precluding
  contract opportunities for the less qualified. Upon completion
  of the prequalification process, all respondents will be notified
  of the USPS' decision. Interested parties should submit their
  Letters of Interest by February 4, 1998 in order to ensure
  themselves the maximum response time. USPS plans to issue application
  packages on February 5, 1998. Respondents will be given until
  February 20, 1998, or two weeks from the date of issue, whichever
  date is later, to submit their responses.
