GPS MGUE Technical Requirements Documents Working Groups (TRD WGs) and Specification Working Groups (SWGs)

The Global Positioning System (GPS) Wing (GPSW) Military GPS User Equipment (MGUE) program at the Los Angeles Air Force Base (LAAFB) Space and Missile System Center (SMC) invites industry to participate in MGUE Technical Requirements Document (TRD) development working groups (TRD WGs) and the Specification WG (SWG). This activity follows the System Integration with Primes Working Group (SIPWG) held 4 March 2010 to allow greater industry participation in the ongoing MGUE TRD development. The TRD WGs are technical interchange meetings (TIMs) dedicated to the discussion of the requirements which will help define the Common GPS Module and the MGUE Lead Platform Form Factors. Industry, to include small business, is encouraged to access and provide inputs to the requirements documents and be prepared to discuss at the TRD WGs. Comments pertaining to the posted documents may be submitted upon authorized access to the Contractor Livelink site, or to the MGUE Bidders Library site (for those who currently have access). Comments pertaining to the TRD and its Protection Profile for SWG disposition need to be provided by 28 May 2010. Comments received through the end of the SWG will be captured with disposition by around 30 June 2010. The TRD Specification WG is a comprehensive three-day review of the MGUE TRD. The topics associated with the TRD requirements that will be discussed at the TRD WGs are posted as working drafts which can be found on the Contractor Livelink site and temporarily on the MGUE Bidders Library for those who currently have access.
