COMBINED SOURCES SOUGHT/NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE AEGIS GUAM Weapon System Engineering and Integration

Purpose: The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is conducting market research for the Aegis Guam System (AG) weapon system. The information herein only initiates communication with industry in order to assess market potential. No solicitation document exists at this time. This Request for Information (RFI) constitutes no Government obligation to procure these items or issue a solicitation. The Government does not have an obligation to pay for information responding to this RFI and will not accept any responses as offers. MDA is seeking alternate sources that can design, develop, test, and integrate the AG weapon system with associated combat system systems and elements to support an incremental delivery of an AG to a Guam facility beginning in 2024 with subsequent planned deliveries in FY2026 and FY2028. This effort includes leveraging current Aegis Weapon System (AWS) Common Source Library (CSL) software and the production hardware suites. It will also require development of a new launcher interface and non-recurring engineering and integration of a new launcher for AG. Due to the fact that the Government does not currently possess design data to provide to interested parties, and no Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) or Government Furnished Information (GFI) can be provided in support of this notice, MDA believes that only Lockheed Martin, Rotary Mission System (LM RMS) is capable of providing the required services; however, all responsible sources interested may provide their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. If no alternate sources are identified, the Government intends to issue a modification to HQ085121C002 to LM RMS, 199 Borton Landing Road, Moorestown, New Jersey 08057, under Statutory Authority, 10 USC 3204 (a)(1) as implemented under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2) - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements to support the following requirement. All sources eligible to provide this requirement must respond in writing. A request for documentation will not be considered as an affirmative response. This notice is intended to meet the requirements of both FAR Part 5 and DFARS PGI 206.302-1. Description of the Requirement: The Company shall design, develop, test and integrate the AG weapon system; leveraging existing AWS CSL software and production hardware, to ensure an incremental delivery of AG on Guam, beginning in FY2024. It will also require development of a new launcher interface and non-recurring engineering and integration of a new launcher for AG. The MDA will not provide materials, nor the technical data package for AG to provide to prospective offerors. Offerors shall be able to meet and deliver the entire solution. Responses: Responses should address the ability to provide technical engineering to design, develop, test, and integrate the AG weapon system with associated combat system systems and elements to support delivery of AG to a Guam facility NLT 4QFY2024. Submission Instructions: No classified data shall be submitted Provide a capability statement to design and develop, test, and integrate an AG weapon system with associated combat system systems, elements to support the delivery of AG to a Guam facility NLT 4QFY2024, and development of a new launcher interface and non-recurring engineering and integration of a new launcher for AG.
