AI Contract Overview

The Department of the Air Force's Electronic Systems Center is seeking sources capable of sustaining and modernizing a range of critical ground-based radar and optical sensor systems under Air Force Space Command. These systems support missile warning, missile defense, and space surveillance missions, with the goal of optimizing lifecycle cost management. The contract encompasses various radar and sensor installations, including the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System radars located at Thule Air Base, Clear Air Force Base, and Fylingdales, as well as PAVE Phased Array Warning System radars at Cape Cod, Beale, and Robins Air Force Bases. Additional systems covered include the phased array radar at Eglin AFB, PARCS radar at Cavalier AFS, the GEODSS optical system at multiple sites, the Globus II radar in Norway, Moron Optical Surveillance System in Spain, and the AF Space Surveillance System VHF Fence and Distributed Space Command and Control facilities in Dahlgren, Virginia. The scope may adjust to add or remove sensors over time in response to mission requirements. The government is also considering whether to incorporate level 1 Operation and Maintenance support within this scope. This presolicitation notice invites qualified contractors to respond with capabilities related to both sustaining existing sensor technologies and implementing modernization efforts, ensuring continued operational readiness of the Air Force’s space and missile defense sensor infrastructure.

Full Description

The Department of the Air Force, Electronic Systems Center, Space C2 and Surveillance Division, Space Control Sensors Branch is conducting market research to identify sources capable of performing the sustainment and modernization of ground-based, radar and optical sensor systems under Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) responsibility. The objectives are to optimize lifecycle cost management for missile warning, missile defense, and space surveillance sensors.The sensor systems currently include the following ground based radars and optical systems: . Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) radars at Thule Air Base (AB), Greenland; Clear Air Force Base (AFB), Alaska; and Fylingdales, United Kingdom. . PAVE Phased Array Warning System (PAWS) radars at Cape Cod Air Force Station (AFS), Massachusetts; Beale Air Force Base (AFB), California; and a system in cold storage at Robins AFB, Georgia.. Phased array radar at Eglin AFB, Florida. . Perimeter Acquisition Radar Attack Characterization System (PARCS) radar at Cavalier Air Force Station (AFS), North Dakota. . Ground-based Electro-Optical Deep Space Surveillance (GEODSS) system at Socorro, New Mexico; Diego Garcia, British Indian Ocean Territories; Maui, Hawaii; and Edwards AFB, California. . Globus II (HAVE STARE) radar at Vardo, Norway.. Moron Optical Surveillance System (MOSS) Moron AB, Spain.. Air Force Space Surveillance System Very High Frequency (VHF) Fence (AFSSS VHF Fence) and Distributed Space Command and Control - Dahlgren (DSC2-D) consisting of three transmitter sites, six receiver sites and the operational command and control center at Dahlgren, Virginia. Other existing sensors and locations may be added or deleted from the contractor's sustainment responsibility over time as mission needs dictate. The Government is also evaluating whether it would be appropriate to include level 1 Operation and Maintenance (O&M) in this effort.
