AI Contract Overview

Show more

The contract involves modifying the existing CCS-C contract awarded to Integral Systems Inc. (ISI) to develop specialized software, command procedures, and databases that enhance Command and Control capabilities for the Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) Block II Satellites 4-6. This modification extends the original CCS-C contract, which supports satellite operations including Launch & Early Orbit activities, on-orbit management, anomaly resolution, and disposal. The added effort specifically targets integration and readiness to support critical factory compatibility tests scheduled to begin in January 2010, with performance extending through June 2013. ISI’s existing EPOCH Integrated Product Suite already supports multiple MILSATCOM constellations, and their demonstrated expertise and proprietary systems uniquely position them to meet the program’s stringent technical and scheduling requirements. The effort is being conducted under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1(a)(2) with no competition due to the specialized nature of the work and ISI’s exclusive capability. The contract supports a broad range of command and control functions, including telemetry and command processing, orbit data management, ground system resource allocation, simulation, mission planning, analysis, and training, providing overarching C2 for MILSATCOM satellite programs. The government has sought information on possible competition but confirmed that only ISI possesses the requisite experience to avoid project delays. All communications and inquiries related to the contract are directed to the designated Contracting Officer and Contract Negotiator based in Los Angeles Air Force Base, ensuring centralized management of this vital defense communications capability upgrade.

Full Description

Show more
The Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) MILSATCOM Systems Wing (MCSW), Command and Control System - Consolidated (CCS-C) Program Office, intends to modify the existing CCS-C contract, F04701-01-C-0012, for the purpose of developing space vehicle specific software, command procedures, and databases that will provide Command and Control (C2) capabilities for the Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) Block II Satellites 4-6, under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 6.302-1(a)(2). The period of performance for this effort is from contract award through 30 June 2013. The modification for this additional effort will be issued to the incumbent contractor, Integral Systems Inc. (ISI), 6721 Columbia Gateway Drive, Columbia, MD 21046. The CCS-C Block I contract supports Launch & Early Orbit (L&EO) operations, on-orbit operations, anomaly resolution, and disposal operations. CCS-C supports these activities by providing telemetry processing, command processing, orbit data processing, ground system resource management, satellite and ground system simulation, mission planning and scheduling, support planning and execution, analysis tools, and system training. The CCS-C contract provides C2 capability for the full family of MILSATCOM satellite programs, with the capability to support other satellite programs. ISI's proprietary EPOCH Integrated Product Suite (IPS) is currently designed and operational to support four MILSATCOM satellite constellations: Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS); Milstar; Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) Block I; and Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF). The addition of WGS Block II Satellites 4-6 to the CCS-C Block I contract will allow the incumbent contractor to develop the C2 capability for the WGS Block II Satellites 4-6 in accordance with the same "technical" instructions as on the current CCS-C contract. The WGS Block II schedule for Satellites 4-6 requires that CCS-C be ready to support three satellite factory compatibility tests in Calendar Year 2010, with the first test scheduled for January 2010. A Sources Sought Synopsis was published for this effort in order to explore the feasibility of competition. The Statements of Capability submitted confirmed that only the incumbent contractor, ISI, currently possesses the requisite experience, expertise, and data to support the critical program schedule and avoid unacceptable delays. The information contained herein is based on the best information available at the time of publication, is subject to revision, and is not binding on the Government. This notice is for information purposes only and the Government will not recognize any cost associated with submission of information in response to this or previous notices. Submit all inquiries or responses to this notice to the Procurement Contracting Officer, Lisa Renee Kraus. Email: lisa.kraus@losangeles.af.mil.
