R--Spectrum Management Support Services

The Navy and Marine Corps Spectrum Center (NMSC) has operated with centralized spectrum management support at the national level. Frequency Assignments are required in order to radiate radio frequencies (RF). These are submitted in either the Standard Frequency Action Format (SFAF) or in the Government Master File (GMF) format by NMSC to the National Telecommunication Information Administration (NTIA) where they are voted on by other federal agencies belonging to the Frequency Assignment Subcommittee (FAS). The timely processing of proposals is critical to meeting the emerging spectrum management requirements of the DoN. To that end establishing spectrum support closer to the warfighter will better anticipate and meet the warfighter’s spectrum management requirements. The services required will provide NMSC with essential field level technical support in the planning, acquisition, retention, protection and effective use of electromagnetic spectrum resources in support operations to the Department of the Navy. This is a sole source six month bridge contract while the follow-on acquisition can be procured. Odyssey Systems Consulting Group LTD is the only firm who can supply the required services for the acquisition. The proposed action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), and Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a). Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.
