The Defense Logistics Agency-Aberdeen, on behalf of the Army Integrated Logistics Supply Center (ILSC) – Supply Chain Management Directorate (SCMD) – Strategic Sourcing Directorate (SSD), intends to acquire Parts to support the SINCGARS.
Requirements Description:
This market survey is to locate the manufacturer(s) only for the Installation Kits (IKs) and the Associate Components in support of the Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) Radio Sets. SINCGARS is a family of Very High Frequency-Frequency Modulation (VHF-FM) combat net radios designed to provide the primary means of command and control for combat, combat support, and combat service support units. The SINCGARS radios provide a resistance to jamming via Electronic Counter-Countermeasures (ECCM). The SINCGARS family of radios has the capability to transmit and receive voice and digital data and is consistent with North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Interoperability requirements. SINCGARS is the primary soldier-to-soldier communications system and is one of the five major communications/data elements that provide seamless digital communications to the Army end user. SINCGARS IKs are designed to install a specified SINCGARS radio system into a specified vehicle. Each IK contains the different components depends on the SINCGARS radio configuration being installed with the specific IK(s). Most of the SINCGARS IKs contains Mounting Base, Electrical, MT-6352/VRC; Loudspeaker-Control Unit, LS-671/VRC; Antenna, Vehicular (High Voltage Center-Fed) AS-3900A/VRC, or Antenna, Vehicular (Survivable Low Profile), AS-3916/VRC; Handset, H-250/VCEB and Various Cable Assemblies, which are considered to be the major components of these IKs and the hardware. Some of them contain the mechanical parts and the hardware only. First Article Test (FAT) will be required for the SINCGARS IKs contain electronic components. FAT will be performed on the above-mentioned major components of the IKs, but not on the IK itself. The manufacturer(s) shall have capability to complete the FAT test successfully and commence the delivery within 12 months after the contract award.
The Government does possess the technical data package (TDP) for the parts. The TDP is available for release. The TDP includes level 3. production information.
The NSNs being procured were procured under one of the previous 5-year IDIQ contracts, SPRBL1-18-D-0059 and SPRBL1-17-D-0020; one-time small purchase contracts SPRBL119P0048 and SPRBL119P0067; or via multiple delivery orders against the IEC contract, to include SPRBL1-20-D-0015 / SPRBL123F0029; SPRBL1-20-D-0010 / SPRBL124F0115; SPRBL1-20-D-0015 / SPRBL122F0058; SPRBL1-20-D-0015 / SPRBL123F0126; SPRBL1-20-D-0010 / SPRBL123F0167; and SPRBL1-20-D-0010 / SPRBL125F0057.
