Next Generation Automated Test System (NGATS)

The U.S. Army Contracting Command, on behalf of the Product Director Test Measurement and Diagnostic Equipment (PD TMDE), is promoting the Next Generation Automated Test System (NGATS), an advanced automated test equipment system. This initiative follows a previous Market Survey Sources Sought notice issued in March 2011 and aims to introduce a tactical version of the NGATS ATE. The system will be showcased at the IEEE AUTOTESTCON 2011 conference held at the Baltimore Convention Center from September 13-15, 2011, where demonstrations of basic NGATS operations and test program sets (TPS) will be provided. The display serves as an opportunity for interested parties to gain insights into this cutting-edge technology and engage with government representatives for further inquiries. The contract, identified under solicitation number W15QKN-11-Z-A003, is managed by the Department of Defense office located at Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey. While specific contract type, set-aside status, and NAICS code details are not provided, the notice emphasizes open communication channels via designated contracting officers Michael Grant and Joseph Lewis. Their contact information is provided for questions before or after the event, indicating the government’s intent to involve potential industry partners and gather feedback related to the development and deployment of the NGATS system.
