AI Contract Overview

The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) intends to award a sole source Cost Plus Award Fee contract to Northrop Grumman Space and Mission Systems, Command and Control Systems Division, to provide an additional 12 months of software development and systems engineering services for the Global Command and Control System Maritime (GCCS-M) Increment 2. This contract includes an option to extend services through the Milestone C threshold date or April 30, 2010, whichever is later, with Milestone C expected in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.

This contract will be awarded without competition under the authority that limits competition when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. Although not a request for proposals, the government maintains a policy to promote competition by inviting any prospective offerors to submit capability statements or proposals for consideration. The solicitation will be issued without further notice, and award is anticipated by September 25, 2008. Questions about the contract may be directed to designated contacts within the Naval Information Warfare Systems office.

Full Description

The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR), Program Executive Office- Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence (PEO-C4I), Program Office PMW 150 intends to award a sole source Cost Plus Award Fee (CPAF) contract to Northrop Grumman Space and Mission Systems, Command and Control Systems Division, 12011 Sunset Hills Road, Reston, VA, 20190. Northrop Grumman will provide an additional 12 months of GCCS-M Increment 2 software development and systems engineering services, with an option to extend services through the Milestone C threshold date or 30 April 2010, whichever is later. GCCS-M is scheduled to achieve Milestone C in Q1 FY10. Past experience has identified that deficiencies recognized during developmental testing will need to be fixed to achieve a Milestone C decision. As the prime developer and integrator of GCCS-M, the continued support of Northrop Grumman is critical to obtain a MS C decision.

Authority for other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other suppliers or services will satisfy agency requirements. Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code for this requirement is 541511. The solicitation will be issued without further notice.
