CLIN 0015 IADS-Turnkey-Install and RQ-4 Integration Turnkey Installation will require the contractor to integrate their completed system with the RQ-4 classified ground station at Edwards AFB, CA. Integration will require prior knowledge of RQ-4 Ku satellite link data telemetry signal, decommutation, time synchronization, IADS software, and classified networks. The government does not provide documentation for RQ-4 telemetry signals. The ground station is classified hardware and therefore, once connected, the IADS system will become classified and can no longer leave the site. The vendor must have sufficient security clearance to access SECRET networks and information. Due to other restrictions, the vendor may not be permitted to work on the product once installed; therefore the integrated IADS system must work at the proposed vendor's lab prior to acceptance, to include acceptance of RQ-4 Ku satellite link telemetry. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties may submit their interest and capability to the contract specialist below not later than, 18 August 2017, 4:00 p.m., Pacific Standard Time. Based upon the responses to this notice, the Government will determine if this proposed acquisition should be opened to competition. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
