Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract to Lockheed Martin Sippican (LMS) for Production of OE-538 Hardware and Upgrade Kits   3

The purpose of this notice is to inform all parties that in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c)(1) (FAR 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements), the United States Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWARSYSCOM) intends to award a Sole Source contract to Lockheed Martin Sippican (LMS) located in Marion, MA. OE-538 Antenna, upgrade kits and pr provisioning items will be procured on a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) basis. Integration of up upgrade kits and engineering services will be procured on a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) ba basis. The OE-538 Antenna System is a single-service (submarine-unique), mast-mounted, multi-function antenna system that provides a Radio Frequency (RF) communication capability in the Very Low Frequency (VLF), Medium Frequency/ High Frequency (MF/HF), Very High Frequency (VHF), Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Line-of-Sight (LOS), UHF Follow-on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Gl Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Global Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Gl Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE on Satellite (UFO) bands. In addition, it provides Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and Global Position System (GPS) capabilities for all submarine classes. The OE-538 Antenna System consists of the following components: Antenna Radome Assembly, Interconnecting Cable Assembly, Junction Box, Hull Penetrator, and Antenna Control Unit (ACU). The OE-538 Antenna System is fully fielded and currently in Operations and Su Support (O&S) phase. The OE-538A Antenna System is a modified OE-538 Antenna System with added capabilities to support Mobile Users Objective Systems (MUOS), Tactical Data Link (TDL) via Link 16, and Iridium capabilities. The OE-538A Antenna Systems consist of the same components as the OE-538; however, the ACU is not needed since it will be controlled by the Radio Frequency Distribution and Antenna Control System (RFDACS) which is a component of the Common Submarine Radio Room (CSRR) Program of Record (PoR). The incremental upgrade of an OE-538 to OE-538A configuration only affects the antenna ra radome assembly and does n ra radome ra radome assembly and does n ra radome assembly and does not require modification to the other components. The OE-538B Antenna System is a modified OE-538A Antenna System with added capabilities to support the requirements for GPS Anti-Jam and GPS Military-Code capabilities. The OE-538B Antenna Systems consists of the same components as the OE-538A. The incremental up 538A. Th 538A. The incremental up 538A. The incremental upgrade of an OE 538A. The incremental upgrade of an OE-538A to OE-538B configuration only affects the antenna radome assembly and does not require modification to the other components. The OE-592B Antenna System is the same as the OE-538B Antenna System except that it it has longer radome to accommodate the longer mast hoisting system. The Government re requires delivery re requ re requires delivery re requires delivery FY 2021Q3. LMS is the only responsible source that possesses the detailed knowledge and technical expertise to produce additional quantities of OE-538 hardware and provide engineering suppor support s suppor suppor support s suppor support services without unacceptable delay to the Government.
