The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division, intends to negotiate on a Sole Source basis an IDIQ contract with issuance of Fixed Price delivery orders to APPLIED SYSTEMS ENGINEERING INCORPORATED (ASEI), 1480 Hickory St, Suite 106, Niceville, FL 32578-2548. This requirement will allow for the current Advanced Tactical Navigator (ATACNAV) receivers to be upgraded and delivered with Selective Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) and/or High Accuracy (HA) capabilities. There are one hundred and two (102) receivers that require upgrades. The current BMS GPS design transmits information through the ATACNAV, which has already had extensive design and design reviews to become a tested, fielded, and functional system. Since ASEI is the only manufacturer of these receivers with no authorized distributors and retains the proprietary rights, no other company can meet the government’s requirements. Interested parties other than ASEI must be able to demonstrate, in writing, their capability to provide the items above. It is anticipated that this solicitation will be posted on 21 November 2012. The anticipated closing date will be 21 December 2012. The solicitation number will be N00178-13-R-1016. The North American Industry Classification System Code is 334511.
