COMBAT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM EQUIPMENT AND ASSOCIATED SERVICES

The Government currently holds a contract with Thales Missile Electronics LTD of the United Kingdom, awarded on May 6, 2004, for a Combat Identification System along with related data and training. This contract was established on a sole source basis under the Foreign Comparative Test Program, authorized by DFARS 206.302-1. The Navy seeks to modify this existing contract to include additional training, support equipment, and support services necessary to demonstrate the previously provided products. This upcoming modification will be conducted on a restricted competition basis. The work is associated with NAICS code 334511, with a size standard of 750 employees, and is managed by NSWC Division Crane, part of the Department of Defense. Information related to this contract is posted on both the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) website and the Navy Electronic Commerce Online (NECO) site, with either serving as a resource for access. The point of contact for this procurement is Mr. J.D. Martin, located at NSWC Crane, Indiana, who can be reached via phone, fax, or preferred email communication for any inquiries. This initiative reflects the Government’s ongoing effort to enhance and support the operational capability of the Combat Identification System originally procured from Thales Missile Electronics.
