SINCGARS Installation Kits, MK-3092/VRC and MK-3094/VRC

The purpose of this Market Survey is to locate potential sources for the acquisition of two Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) radio installation kits (IK); MK-3092/VRC, NSN 5895-01-570-2424 (Curbside Antenna) and the MK-3094/VRC, NSN 5895-01-570-5824 (Rack and Frame Assembly, Multinet Rack). SINCGARS installation requires an installation kit specific to the vehicle or platform. The MK-3092 IK is used for installation of antenna adapter brackets and tower for curbside antennas in the M998, M1097, and High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV). The MK-3094 IK is used for installation of C4ISR equipment in the M1151, M1152 and M1165 HMMWVs. These IKs are composed of mounting brackets and hardware. SINCGARS, a family of Very High Frequency-Frequency Modulation (VHF-FM) combat net radios were designed and developed by ITT (known as Exelis and acquired by Harris) in conjunction with the US Army for military tactical communications. Both IKs are mission essential parts, which support SINCGARS. The IKs have an assigned Acquisition Method Code 1 and an Acquisition Method Suffix Code G which means the items are suitable for competitive acquisition, the Government has unlimited rights to the technical data, and the data package is complete. Drawings are available upon request and the POC for this action is Mark A. Laskoski, mark.laskoski@dla.mil and (443) 861-4545. Companies must demonstrate that they had past experience of producing these IKs or IKs that deliver the same form, fit, and function. Potential suppliers are required to warrant that the IKs will satisfactorily perform when used for the purpose intended by the Army. Please complete the following questions when respond.
