The Department of National Defence has a requirement to procure a Two Way Data Link (TWDL) and associated supporting deliverables for CF-18 Advanced Multi-role Infrared Sensors (AMIRS). The purpose of this Advance Contract Award Notice (ACAN) is to signal the government's intention to award a contract for these goods to Lockheed Martin Overseas Services Corporation (LMOSC). Before awarding a contract, however, the government would like to provide other suppliers with the opportunity to demonstrate that they are capable of satisfying the requirements set out in this Notice, by submitting a statement of capabilities during the 15 calendar day posting period. If other potential suppliers submit a statement of capabilities during the 15 calendar day posting period that meets the requirements set out in the ACAN, the government will proceed to a full tendering process on the government's electronic tendering service or through traditional means, in order to award the contract. If no other supplier submits, on or before the closing date, a statement of capabilities meeting the requirements set out in the ACAN, a contract will be awarded to the pre-selected supplier.
BACKGROUND The Department of National Defence has a requirement to purchase forty-six (46) Two-Way Data Links (TWDL) to replace the existing Video Data Link (VDL) from analog to digital IAW STANAG 7085/AEDP-10 and 4609/AEDP-8 Edition 3, to meet the modernization for CF-18 supportability, interoperability, survivability and operations.
MINIMUM ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS As the Tactical Control Data Link capability is an essential requirement, it must be compatible and integrated within the current AMIRS Sniper Pod. Any interested supplier must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that they have obtained an agreement from Lockheed Martin Corp., who has the Intellectual Property Rights to the existing TWDL on the Sniper Pod, to provide a TWDL. JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PRE-SELECTED SUPPLIER
Lockheed Martin Corp. holds the Intellectual Property Rights to the existing CF-18 AMIRS Sniper Pod. Unless an agreement is obtained from Lockheed Martin Corp to use their background intellectual property, LMOSC is the only supplier capable of meeting the government's requirement.
Suppliers who consider themselves fully qualified and available to meet the specified requirements may submit a statement of capabilities in writing to the Contracting Authority identified in this Notice on or before the closing date of this Notice. The statement of capabilities must clearly demonstrate how the supplier meets the advertised requirements. The closing date and time for accepting statements of capabilities is March 21, 2014 2 pm EST. Inquiries and statements of capabilities are to be directed to: Elizabeth Rose Public Works and Government Services Canada Acquisitions Branch, DMPS Place du Portage, Phase III, 8C1 Telephone: 819-956-0133 Facsimile: 819-956-0549 E-mail: elizabeth.rose@pwgsc-tpsgc.gc.ca
