LPS Qubit Collaboratory (LQC)
The U.S. Army Research Office (ARO) in partnership with NSA’s Laboratory for Physical Science (LPS) is soliciting Incubator, Collaboration, and Fellowship research proposals for participation in the LPS Qubit Collaboratory (LQC). The mission of the LQC can be captured in three broad goals: 1) pursue disruptive fundamental research and enabling technologies with a focus on qubit development for quantum computing and other applications (such as sensing); 2) grow deep, collaborative partnerships to tackle the most difficult and relevant long-term problems in quantum information science and technology; and 3) build a quantum workforce of tomorrow through research experiences in government at LPS and at LQC partners. The LQC will offer a mechanism for collaborative research between LPS and academia, industry, FFRDCs, and Government Laboratories to advance foundational and transformative research on challenging problems that have hindered progress in quantum information processing and associated technologies. The goal of this BAA is to seek proposals that bring together expertise from the public and private sectors and their respective research infrastructures to advance solutions that may be best approached as a collaborative team. A Collaboratory is “a center without walls, in which the nation’s researchers can perform their research without regard to physical location, interacting with colleagues, accessing instrumentation, sharing data and computational resources, [and] accessing information in digital libraries. This BAA introduces LQC Research Thrusts (A.1.1) which are the technical areas of interest—which will be updated periodically—where partners of the LQC will pursue joint research with LPS through Incubator (A.1.2) and Collaboration (A.1.3) collaborative agreements. The LQC BAA also fulfills the Government’s overarching interest--through the proposed research and on-site research experiences--in creating and training a workforce in quantum science and technology, generating pathways of solutions that feed technology development, establishing partnerships, and creating transition opportunities. In further support of training through research, Section A.1.4 calls for Quantum Computing Research (QuaCR) Graduate and Postdoctoral Fellowships for US citizens working in areas of interest as described below. Substantial progress on solving the most difficult and long-term Quantum Information Science & Technology (QIST) research problems that unleash further rapid progress in the field will constitute LQC success. Examples of such research problems include (but are not limited to): limits of performance due to device design, material selection, and/or control, the exploration of alternative qubit physics (e.g., different approaches to qubit encoding or types of gates) and lowering of barriers to such approaches, advances in materials that improve qubit gate fidelity, reducing the overhead of classical components in quantum information technology and optimizing classical performance, and the exploration of applications of quantum technologies to new domains. Three categories of proposals are sought for this BAA: Incubator opportunities seek partnership proposals from single investigators and small research groups, including teaching colleges, who may have unique skillsets to contribute toward the pursuit of the research thrusts presented in A.1.1. Incubator proposals may also be the development of concepts into a detailed technical research approach to advance solution of problems of high interest to quantum information science research. Incubator proposals would avail themselves of the collaboration opportunities with LPS research staff and infrastructure made available at the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS) to lay the groundwork for concepts that may be suitable for a Collaboratory proposal or responses to other DoD quantum information science research opportunities. Collaboratory proposals seek research proposals that bring together a strong significant collaboration--researchers from academia, industry, FFRDCs, and/or Government Laboratories--to pursue long-term projects focused on fundamental problems of interest to qubit development and/or associated science and technology. These collaborative groups will propose to work together in a focused manner for a period of time expected to be one to three years in order to demonstrate a proof-of-concept experiment and/or theory exploration to determine the feasibility of their creative idea. QuaCR Research Fellowship proposals seek to support talented U.S. citizen graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the field of quantum information processing (primary interest) and quantum sensing (secondary interest). Applicants with a background from either within or outside QIS are encouraged. The proposed research areas are described in this BAA and must enhance active Quantum Information Science research efforts being supported by the Army Research Office and/or LPS. Research fellows are encouraged to complete an LPS Internship during their graduate career or visit during their postdoctoral fellowship.

Responses in any form are not offers and the government is under no obligation to award a contract as a result of this announcement. Any information submitted by respondents to this notice is strictly voluntary. All comments and inquiries to include draft solicitation shall be submitted in writing to Cheryl A. Berry at Cheryl.a.berry@uscg.mil and John Wright at John.wright@uscg.mil no later than close of business August 6, 2025. Please ensure e-mail comments and inquiries include "RMACC Presolicitation" in the subject line. It is the responsibility of the offeror to note any changes between this announcement, any future postings of any further presolicitation notices, and the final solicitation. Description of Work: The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Shore Infrastructure Logistics Center (SILC) Construction Contracting Office, has determined the need to re-procure a suite of up to ten Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Regional Multiple Award Construction Contracts (RMACCs) to perform construction on a regional basis nationwide. The contracts will be available on a non-mandatory, enterprise-wide basis to all DHS Directorates and Components. The DHS Components include United States Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS), United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP), United States Coast Guard (USCG), Federal Emergency and Management Agency (FEMA), Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and United States Secret Service (USSS). The contracts will meet the majority of the DHS infrastructure needs for maintenance, repair, and construction for all projects with a maximum value, as determined by each RMACC, between $10M and $20M within the 50 United States and its territories. These contracts are intended to provide prompt responses on an as-needed basis for routine and emergent requirements. The contracts offer a streamlined approach to construction contracting and ongoing competition between qualified contractors. The scope of work will include real property repairs, maintenance, and general construction, marine construction, demolition, historical restoration, and remediation. Facilities include, but are not limited to, operations buildings, hangars, boat houses, firing ranges, residential and light commercial buildings and their mechanical and electrical systems, site utilities, waterfront facilities, electronic surveillance/security construction, dredging, and airports/runways. Design-Build including One-Step Turnkey, and Design/Bid/Build project or other delivery methods will be used. Each of the resulting contracts will be aligned with a specific geographical region corresponding to Coast Guard Districts. A map of the Coast Guard Districts has been provided in the files accompanying this notice. A separate contract will cover the United States territories within the Region of Caribbean and Puerto Rico (Contract Region 7.5) which is a part of Coast Guard District 7. This area was separated because the government considers that the market conditions are significantly different than those in the rest of the District. Contract Regions 11 and 13 will be combined as they were on the predecessor RMACC. The Coast Guard has six different Civil Engineering Units (CEUs). Each of the CEUs is aligned with one or two of the Coast Guard Districts. Each CEU will award and administer the contracts for the regions that correspond with the District(s) to which they are aligned. After the contract award, the ordering authority and ordering procedures will be provided to all DHS components. All contract awards will be based on a single solicitation. The solicitation will prescribe phased proposal due dates for each regional contract. Offerors will submit a separate proposal for each regional contract to the CEU assigned to conduct the procurement. The terms and ordering procedures of each contract will be uniform among the resulting contracts, in the manner of promoting a standardized method of delivery. The evaluation factors for each region will be uniform and a single source selection authority will take responsibility for all contract awards that stem from the solicitation; but separate source selection teams will be formed to evaluate each regional contract. Pre-proposal inquiries for final conformed solicitation will be reviewed programmatically, and any amendments will be issued to the solicitation as required. Pre-proposal inquiries shall be issued to cheryl.a.berry@uscg.mil and john.wright@uscg.mil. Any protests received after close of the solicitation will be directed in a manner to allow ongoing efforts to continue, where possible. For instance, in the case of a protest related to a specific regional contract, it is our intention to resolve these matters at the regional contract level, in order to isolate any delays to the regional contract that is under protest. In essence, each regional award decision will be considered a separate source selection. Each Regional Multiple Award Construction Contract is set aside for contractors in one or more small business socioeconomic programs. Each of the contracts will include a base year and two (3)-year option periods. Task order limits will range from $2,000 to $20M. As previously noted, ordering authority will be available to any Department of Homeland Security components with appropriate construction warrant authority. The minimum guarantee for each individual contract will be $5,000. The anticipated aggregate capacity for new regional RMACCs is $4 Billion. Approximately ten individual contracts (individual contractors) are anticipated for each region. As part of the source selection criteria, the government will evaluate the contractor's ability and capacity to work within the region of each specific contract. Please note that a separate proposal will be required for each regional contract. The proposal’s due dates and delivery locations will vary for each regional contract. Specific instructions will be provided in the solicitation. Attached is a table showing the CEU assignment, the socioeconomic program set aside. *Note on 8(a) contractors: We are working with SBA to accept contractors with a Bonafide place of business that is anywhere within the region covered by the contract. The final solicitation will elaborate on this requirement. **Note on Region 17: The contract will be set aside for contracts in the HUBZone program and/or the 8(a) program. Awards will be made in a manner where at least two contracts are reserved for 8(a) contractors and at least two contracts are reserved for HUBZone contractors. After award of the contract, the Contracting Officer will be able to set aside orders to either the HUBZone program or the 8(a) program, where the rule of two is met. The contract will be administered in accordance with FAR 19.502-4, Multiple-Award Contracts and Small Business Set-Asides. Through a separate effort which will be addressed in future, separate notices, a complementary National Multiple Award Contract (NMACC) will be awarded to address larger construction projects that are greater than $4M in value. The model of separate, complementary multiple-award contracts for large and small construction has proven successful over the past six years for both the Coast Guard and DHS. Each of these contracts provides specific capabilities. The RMACC is typically used for nonrecurring major maintenance repairs of real property facilities utilizing a Design/Bid/Build project delivery method or a One-Step Turnkey (Design-Build) delivery method. These projects are typically funded through an annual Operating Expense appropriation (e.g. the AFC-43 account in the Coast Guard). The RMACC can also be used for small new construction projects (minor construction) funded with separate appropriation (e.g. Acquisition Construction & Improvement, AC&I, in the Coast Guard). The NMACC contractors will have robust capabilities for executing large projects using Design-Build procedures and will typically be used for large capital improvement projects (renovations or new construction) funded with AC&I. The slight overlap in contract thresholds (i.e. the $20M upper limit on the RMACC and the $4M lower limit on the NMACC) allows flexibility to employ the most appropriate contract for the work involved. For example, a larger minor construction project that might utilize complex Design-Build processes would benefit from the robust design capabilities held by the NMACC contractors. On the other hand, a small new construction project to be executed in a Design/Bid/Build project delivery method would benefit from the more localized and regional competition available on the RMACC. The contract awardees under this procurement shall be able to provide all necessary personnel, facilities, equipment, and materials for multiple and concurrent task orders within the respective regions across the United States and its territories. The contract awardees shall provide these construction services across the entire awarded region at all USCG installations, across all urban and remote locations. The firm shall ensure that all activities performed by its personnel, subcontractors and suppliers are executed as required in compliance with all applicable environmental and safety laws and regulations and will meet all relevant, appropriate, and applicable standards. Specific requirements will be detailed in each task order general requirements, specifications, and drawings. The description of these requirements will vary for each acquisition dependent upon the needs of the requiring entity. Projects will include a variety of assignments involving the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Components within DHS. RMACC contractors should have Design-Build capabilities; however, it should be noted that the Coast Guard is expected to place the majority of orders on the contract and the Coast Guard does not intend to routinely use the RMACC for projects that require complex or collaborative designs that are difficult to forward price, require lengthy review processes, or require significant expense for the presentation of a proposal. Instead, the Coast Guard intends that the majority of the work on the RMACC will utilize the Design/Bid/Build project delivery method or the One-Step (Design-Build) Turnkey delivery method for which the Coast Guard has special statutory authority (See 14 USC 677). The One-Step Turnkey process on this contract will entail selection of a contractor through the fair opportunity process on the basis of price or price in combination with other evaluation criteria to perform, in accordance with the provisions of a firm fixed price contract, both the design and construction of a facility using performance specifications. When utilizing this process, the Coast Guard will be sensitive to any advanced design costs necessary to offer a proposal and will attempt to minimize or eliminate these costs by restricting the One-Step Turnkey process to only non-complex design that can be easily coordinated between the contractor and designer and approved through a contract submittal process. The intent of this contract is that all RMACC Contractors participate in pre-proposal conferences and site visits and submit proposals for each task order. Contract awardees will be expected to submit a proposal for all Task Order Requests for Proposal (RFP) received from the Government. However, in the event an RMACC awardee is unable to submit a proposal on a particular RFP, the contractor is required to notify, in writing, the Contracting Officer who issued the RFP and the ACO for the basic contract within five (5) working days from receipt of the RFP. A RMACC awardee can only elect to withdraw from submitting a proposal on three (3) task order RFPs during the course of each year of the contract (base plus two (3)-year option periods). Additional withdrawal requests, in excess of three per year, may result in the Government choosing not to exercise the remaining option terms. Award of the RMACC IDIQ contracts will be based on the criteria outlined in FAR 36.301. The government has determined that the Two-Phase Design-Build Selection Procedure outlined in FAR Subpart 36.3 is appropriate for this procurement. Phase One will be conducted as outlined in FAR 36.303-1 to assess the technical qualifications, technical approach, specialized experience, technical competence, and capability of each firm in utilizing Design-Build Methods. Only the most highly qualified offerors will advance to Phase Two. Phase Two will be conducted in accordance with FAR 15.3 procedures. The evaluation in Phase Two will include the planned approach and price of a Design-Build "Seed Project" for each region (first contract task order). It is USCG intention to award approximately ten individual IDIQ contracts for each region and the number of offerors selected to submit phase-two proposals is expected to be no more than fifteen per region. The following evaluation factors are planned at this time: Phase-One: Factor 1 - Corporate Experience Factor 2 - Past Performance Factor 3 - Regional Management Capabilities, Technical Capabilities, and Capacity (including bonding capabilities) Factor 4 – Safety Note: It is anticipated that bonding capacity will be evaluated during phase one. Also, it is anticipated that a bona fide office within the region will also be evaluated during phase one. **Failure to demonstrate compliance with minimum bonding requirements and SAM.gov registration with the required socioeconomic categories the proposal does not meet government requirements and may not be evaluated further.” Phase-Two: Factor 1- Technical Solution Seed Project Means & Methods Factor 2 - Price (Regional Seed Project) Attachments to Pre-solicitation Notice: Attachment 1: Draft Solicitation Attachment 2: Regiona/District Set Aside Table Attachment 3: Regional/District Map THIS PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF INFORMING THE INDUSTRY OF OUR INTENTION TO POST SOLICITATION WITHIN NEXT MONTH.

Attached is a table showing the CEU assignment, the socioeconomic program set aside. *Note on 8(a) contractors: We are working with SBA to accept contractors with a Bonafide place of business that is anywhere within the region covered by the contract. The final solicitation will elaborate on this requirement. **Note on Region 17: The contract will be set aside for contracts in the HUBZone program and/or the 8(a) program. Awards will be made in a manner where at least two contracts are reserved for 8(a) contractors and at least two contracts are reserved for HUBZone contractors. After award of the contract, the Contracting Officer will be able to set aside orders to either the HUBZone program or the 8(a) program, where the rule of two is met. The contract will be administered in accordance with FAR 19.502-4, Multiple-Award Contracts and Small Business Set-Asides. Through a separate effort which will be addressed in future, separate notices, a complementary National Multiple Award Contract (NMACC) will be awarded to address larger construction projects that are greater than $4M in value. The model of separate, complementary multiple-award contracts for large and small construction has proven successful over the past six years for both the Coast Guard and DHS. Each of these contracts provides specific capabilities. The RMACC is typically used for nonrecurring major maintenance repairs of real property facilities utilizing a Design/Bid/Build project delivery method or a One-Step Turnkey (Design-Build) delivery method. These projects are typically funded through an annual Operating Expense appropriation (e.g. the AFC-43 account in the Coast Guard). The RMACC can also be used for small new construction projects (minor construction) funded with separate appropriation (e.g. Acquisition Construction & Improvement, AC&I, in the Coast Guard). The NMACC contractors will have robust capabilities for executing large projects using Design-Build procedures and will typically be used for large capital improvement projects (renovations or new construction) funded with AC&I. The slight overlap in contract thresholds (i.e. the $20M upper limit on the RMACC and the $4M lower limit on the NMACC) allows flexibility to employ the most appropriate contract for the work involved. For example, a larger minor construction project that might utilize complex Design-Build processes would benefit from the robust design capabilities held by the NMACC contractors. On the other hand, a small new construction project to be executed in a Design/Bid/Build project delivery method would benefit from the more localized and regional competition available on the RMACC. The contract awardees under this procurement shall be able to provide all necessary personnel, facilities, equipment, and materials for multiple and concurrent task orders within the respective regions across the United States and its territories. The contract awardees shall provide these construction services across the entire awarded region at all USCG installations, across all urban and remote locations. The firm shall ensure that all activities performed by its personnel, subcontractors and suppliers are executed as required in compliance with all applicable environmental and safety laws and regulations and will meet all relevant, appropriate, and applicable standards. Specific requirements will be detailed in each task order general requirements, specifications, and drawings. The description of these requirements will vary for each acquisition dependent upon the needs of the requiring entity. Projects will include a variety of assignments involving the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Components within DHS. RMACC contractors should have Design-Build capabilities; however, it should be noted that the Coast Guard is expected to place the majority of orders on the contract and the Coast Guard does not intend to routinely use the RMACC for projects that require complex or collaborative designs that are difficult to forward price, require lengthy review processes, or require significant expense for the presentation of a proposal. Instead, the Coast Guard intends that the majority of the work on the RMACC will utilize the Design/Bid/Build project delivery method or the One-Step (Design-Build) Turnkey delivery method for which the Coast Guard has special statutory authority (See 14 USC 677). The One-Step Turnkey process on this contract will entail selection of a contractor through the fair opportunity process on the basis of price or price in combination with other evaluation criteria to perform, in accordance with the provisions of a firm fixed price contract, both the design and construction of a facility using performance specifications. When utilizing this process, the Coast Guard will be sensitive to any advanced design costs necessary to offer a proposal and will attempt to minimize or eliminate these costs by restricting the One-Step Turnkey process to only non-complex design that can be easily coordinated between the contractor and designer and approved through a contract submittal process. The intent of this contract is that all RMACC Contractors participate in pre-proposal conferences and site visits and submit proposals for each task order. Contract awardees will be expected to submit a proposal for all Task Order Requests for Proposal (RFP) received from the Government. However, in the event an RMACC awardee is unable to submit a proposal on a particular RFP, the contractor is required to notify, in writing, the Contracting Officer who issued the RFP and the ACO for the basic contract within five (5) working days from receipt of the RFP. A RMACC awardee can only elect to withdraw from submitting a proposal on three (3) task order RFPs during the course of each year of the contract (base plus two (3)-year option periods). Additional withdrawal requests, in excess of three per year, may result in the Government choosing not to exercise the remaining option terms. Award of the RMACC IDIQ contracts will be based on the criteria outlined in FAR 36.301. The government has determined that the Two-Phase Design-Build Selection Procedure outlined in FAR Subpart 36.3 is appropriate for this procurement. Phase One will be conducted as outlined in FAR 36.303-1 to assess the technical qualifications, technical approach, specialized experience, technical competence, and capability of each firm in utilizing Design-Build Methods. Only the most highly qualified offerors will advance to Phase Two. Phase Two will be conducted in accordance with FAR 15.3 procedures. The evaluation in Phase Two will include the planned approach and price of a Design-Build "Seed Project" for each region (first contract task order). It is USCG intention to award approximately ten individual IDIQ contracts for each region and the number of offerors selected to submit phase-two proposals is expected to be no more than fifteen per region. The following evaluation factors are planned at this time: Phase-One: Factor 1 - Corporate Experience Factor 2 - Past Performance Factor 3 - Regional Management Capabilities, Technical Capabilities, and Capacity (including bonding capabilities) Factor 4 – Safety Note: It is anticipated that bonding capacity will be evaluated during phase one. Also, it is anticipated that a bona fide office within the region will also be evaluated during phase one. **Failure to demonstrate compliance with minimum bonding requirements and SAM.gov registration with the required socioeconomic categories the proposal does not meet government requirements and may not be evaluated further.” Phase-Two: Factor 1- Technical Solution Seed Project Means & Methods Factor 2 - Price (Regional Seed Project) Attachments to Pre-solicitation Notice: Attachment 1: Draft Solicitation Attachment 2: Regiona/District Set Aside Table Attachment 3: Regional/District Map THIS PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF INFORMING THE INDUSTRY OF OUR INTENTION TO POST SOLICITATION WITHIN NEXT MONTH.

This notice does not constitute a solicitation and shall not be construed as a commitment by the government. Responses in any form are not offers and the government is under no obligation to award a contract as a result of this announcement. Any information submitted by respondents to this notice is strictly voluntary. All comments and inquiries to include draft solicitation shall be submitted in writing to Cheryl A. Berry at Cheryl.a.berry@uscg.mil and John Wright at John.wright@uscg.mil no later than close of business August 6, 2025. Please ensure e-mail comments and inquiries include "RMACC Presolicitation" in the subject line. It is the responsibility of the offeror to note any changes between this announcement, any future postings of any further presolicitation notices, and the final solicitation. Description of Work: The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Shore Infrastructure Logistics Center (SILC) Construction Contracting Office, has determined the need to re-procure a suite of up to ten Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Regional Multiple Award Construction Contracts (RMACCs) to perform construction on a regional basis nationwide. The contracts will be available on a non-mandatory, enterprise-wide basis to all DHS Directorates and Components. The DHS Components include United States Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS), United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP), United States Coast Guard (USCG), Federal Emergency and Management Agency (FEMA), Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and United States Secret Service (USSS). The contracts will meet the majority of the DHS infrastructure needs for maintenance, repair, and construction for all projects with a maximum value, as determined by each RMACC, between $10M and $20M within the 50 United States and its territories. These contracts are intended to provide prompt responses on an as-needed basis for routine and emergent requirements. The contracts offer a streamlined approach to construction contracting and ongoing competition between qualified contractors. The scope of work will include real property repairs, maintenance, and general construction, marine construction, demolition, historical restoration, and remediation. Facilities include, but are not limited to, operations buildings, hangars, boat houses, firing ranges, residential and light commercial buildings and their mechanical and electrical systems, site utilities, waterfront facilities, electronic surveillance/security construction, dredging, and airports/runways. Design-Build including One-Step Turnkey, and Design/Bid/Build project or other delivery methods will be used. Each of the resulting contracts will be aligned with a specific geographical region corresponding to Coast Guard Districts. A map of the Coast Guard Districts has been provided in the files accompanying this notice. A separate contract will cover the United States territories within the Region of Caribbean and Puerto Rico (Contract Region 7.5) which is a part of Coast Guard District 7. This area was separated because the government considers that the market conditions are significantly different than those in the rest of the District. Contract Regions 11 and 13 will be combined as they were on the predecessor RMACC. The Coast Guard has six different Civil Engineering Units (CEUs). Each of the CEUs is aligned with one or two of the Coast Guard Districts. Each CEU will award and administer the contracts for the regions that correspond with the District(s) to which they are aligned. After the contract award, the ordering authority and ordering procedures will be provided to all DHS components. All contract awards will be based on a single solicitation. The solicitation will prescribe phased proposal due dates for each regional contract. Offerors will submit a separate proposal for each regional contract to the CEU assigned to conduct the procurement. The terms and ordering procedures of each contract will be uniform among the resulting contracts, in the manner of promoting a standardized method of delivery. The evaluation factors for each region will be uniform and a single source selection authority will take responsibility for all contract awards that stem from the solicitation; but separate source selection teams will be formed to evaluate each regional contract. Pre-proposal inquiries for final conformed solicitation will be reviewed programmatically, and any amendments will be issued to the solicitation as required. Pre-proposal inquiries shall be issued to cheryl.a.berry@uscg.mil and john.wright@uscg.mil. Any protests received after close of the solicitation will be directed in a manner to allow ongoing efforts to continue, where possible. For instance, in the case of a protest related to a specific regional contract, it is our intention to resolve these matters at the regional contract level, in order to isolate any delays to the regional contract that is under protest. In essence, each regional award decision will be considered a separate source selection. Each Regional Multiple Award Construction Contract is set aside for contractors in one or more small business socioeconomic programs. Each of the contracts will include a base year and two (3)-year option periods. Task order limits will range from $2,000 to $20M. As previously noted, ordering authority will be available to any Department of Homeland Security components with appropriate construction warrant authority. The minimum guarantee for each individual contract will be $5,000. The anticipated aggregate capacity for new regional RMACCs is $4 Billion. Approximately ten individual contracts (individual contractors) are anticipated for each region. As part of the source selection criteria, the government will evaluate the contractor's ability and capacity to work within the region of each specific contract. Please note that a separate proposal will be required for each regional contract. The proposal’s due dates and delivery locations will vary for each regional contract. Specific instructions will be provided in the solicitation. Attached is a table showing the CEU assignment, the socioeconomic program set aside. *Note on 8(a) contractors: We are working with SBA to accept contractors with a Bonafide place of business that is anywhere within the region covered by the contract. The final solicitation will elaborate on this requirement. **Note on Region 17: The contract will be set aside for contracts in the HUBZone program and/or the 8(a) program.

The slight overlap in contract thresholds (i.e. the $20M upper limit on the RMACC and the $4M lower limit on the NMACC) allows flexibility to employ the most appropriate contract for the work involved. For example, a larger minor construction project that might utilize complex Design-Build processes would benefit from the robust design capabilities held by the NMACC contractors. On the other hand, a small new construction project to be executed in a Design/Bid/Build project delivery method would benefit from the more localized and regional competition available on the RMACC. The contract awardees under this procurement shall be able to provide all necessary personnel, facilities, equipment, and materials for multiple and concurrent task orders within the respective regions across the United States and its territories. The contract awardees shall provide these construction services across the entire awarded region at all USCG installations, across all urban and remote locations. The firm shall ensure that all activities performed by its personnel, subcontractors and suppliers are executed as required in compliance with all applicable environmental and safety laws and regulations and will meet all relevant, appropriate, and applicable standards. Specific requirements will be detailed in each task order general requirements, specifications, and drawings. The description of these requirements will vary for each acquisition dependent upon the needs of the requiring entity. Projects will include a variety of assignments involving the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Components within DHS. RMACC contractors should have Design-Build capabilities; however, it should be noted that the Coast Guard is expected to place the majority of orders on the contract and the Coast Guard does not intend to routinely use the RMACC for projects that require complex or collaborative designs that are difficult to forward price, require lengthy review processes, or require significant expense for the presentation of a proposal. Instead, the Coast Guard intends that the majority of the work on the RMACC will utilize the Design/Bid/Build project delivery method or the One-Step (Design-Build) Turnkey delivery method for which the Coast Guard has special statutory authority (See 14 USC 677). The One-Step Turnkey process on this contract will entail selection of a contractor through the fair opportunity process on the basis of price or price in combination with other evaluation criteria to perform, in accordance with the provisions of a firm fixed price contract, both the design and construction of a facility using performance specifications. When utilizing this process, the Coast Guard will be sensitive to any advanced design costs necessary to offer a proposal and will attempt to minimize or eliminate these costs by restricting the One-Step Turnkey process to only non-complex design that can be easily coordinated between the contractor and designer and approved through a contract submittal process. The intent of this contract is that all RMACC Contractors participate in pre-proposal conferences and site visits and submit proposals for each task order. Contract awardees will be expected to submit a proposal for all Task Order Requests for Proposal (RFP) received from the Government. However, in the event an RMACC awardee is unable to submit a proposal on a particular RFP, the contractor is required to notify, in writing, the Contracting Officer who issued the RFP and the ACO for the basic contract within five (5) working days from receipt of the RFP. A RMACC awardee can only elect to withdraw from submitting a proposal on three (3) task order RFPs during the course of each year of the contract (base plus two (3)-year option periods). Additional withdrawal requests, in excess of three per year, may result in the Government choosing not to exercise the remaining option terms. Award of the RMACC IDIQ contracts will be based on the criteria outlined in FAR 36.301. The government has determined that the Two-Phase Design-Build Selection Procedure outlined in FAR Subpart 36.3 is appropriate for this procurement. Phase One will be conducted as outlined in FAR 36.303-1 to assess the technical qualifications, technical approach, specialized experience, technical competence, and capability of each firm in utilizing Design-Build Methods. Only the most highly qualified offerors will advance to Phase Two. Phase Two will be conducted in accordance with FAR 15.3 procedures. The evaluation in Phase Two will include the planned approach and price of a Design-Build "Seed Project" for each region (first contract task order). It is USCG intention to award approximately ten individual IDIQ contracts for each region and the number of offerors selected to submit phase-two proposals is expected to be no more than fifteen per region. The following evaluation factors are planned at this time: Phase-One: Factor 1 - Corporate Experience Factor 2 - Past Performance Factor 3 - Regional Management Capabilities, Technical Capabilities, and Capacity (including bonding capabilities) Factor 4 – Safety Note: It is anticipated that bonding capacity will be evaluated during phase one. Also, it is anticipated that a bona fide office within the region will also be evaluated during phase one. **Failure to demonstrate compliance with minimum bonding requirements and SAM.gov registration with the required socioeconomic categories the proposal does not meet government requirements and may not be evaluated further.” Phase-Two: Factor 1- Technical Solution Seed Project Means & Methods Factor 2 - Price (Regional Seed Project) Attachments to Pre-solicitation Notice: Attachment 1: Draft Solicitation Attachment 2: Regiona/District Set Aside Table Attachment 3: Regional/District Map THIS PRE-SOLICITATION NOTICE IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF INFORMING THE INDUSTRY OF OUR INTENTION TO POST SOLICITATION WITHIN NEXT MONTH.

REQUIREMENTS 3.1 ;The Stud must be in accordance with NAVSEA drawing 7504734 Item 62, except as amplified or modified herein.; 3.2 The Unit of Issue is EACH. The Contractor is required to provide one additional fastener for each uniquely identified heat/lot of material in each shipment. Complete traceability must be maintained on this extra fastener. 3.3 Material for Parts Requiring Certification - Quantitative chemical and mechanical analysis is required for the parts listed below unless specifically stated otherwise: Part - ;Stud; Material - ;ASTM-A193, Grade B7 IAW MIL-DTL-1222; 3.4 Testing Certification - Certifications are required for the following tests on the items listed below. Additional testing on other piece parts (if any) per applicable drawings and specifications is still required, but certifications are only required as listed below. Test - ;Liquid Penetrant Inspection or Magnetic Particle Inspection (Wet Method) (Either inspection is acceptable); Item - ;Stud; Performance - T9074-AS-GIB-010/271; Sampling must be per MIL-DTL-1222 Acceptance - MIL-DTL-1222 3.5 Thread Forming - The following provides the official interpretation of paragraph 4.5.2.7 of MIL-DTL-1222. 3.5.1 In order to qualify for "Alternate Mechanical Testing" found in MIL-DTL-1222J paragraph 4.5.2.7 and utilize the mechanical properties for the starting bar stock in lieu of performing yield strength or proof stress testing on finished fasteners, all of the subsequent provisions found in MIL-DTL-1222J paragraphs 4.5.2.7 a through e must be met. If any single provision is not met, all required mechanical testing must be performed on the finished full sized fasteners. These provisions are explained as follows: a. Proper product lot control and traceability must be in place. b. No heat treatment (including hot heading and hot forming), cold forming, drawing, rolling and thread rolling may be performed on the starting bar, fastener blanks or finished fasteners after the completion of the mechanical testing on the starting bar. c. and d. The proper size starting bar must be selected to ensure mechanical properties of finished fasteners are represented by the mechanical properties of the starting bar. e. The mandatory testing, axial tensile (studs) and wedge tensile (screws and bolts) must be performed on full sized fasteners. Note that there is a typographical error in paragraph 4.5.2.7 and that the axial load test is a mandatory test that must be performed on studs as required in paragraph 4.5.2.7.e. 3.5.2 Thread rolling is a cold working process and is not considered to be a machining or grinding operation. Therefore, fasteners which have rolled threads do not satisfy the provisions of MIL-DTL-1222J paragraph 4.5.2.7.b and are not eligible for the "Alternate Mechanical Testing" provision. 3.5.3 Thread rolling alone is not a sufficient cold working process to qualify a fastener to be in the cold worked (CW) condition. This condition is only applicable to some 300 series stainless steel studs, screws and nuts. These CW condition fasteners must be manufactured from cold worked bar stock or be cold headed in order to qualify. The threads may subsequently be rolled, machined or ground. Testing of the finished fasteners and/or reporting of the starting bar stock material properties is subject to the same provisions found in MIL-DTL-1222J paragraph 4.5.2.7 and discussed above. 3.6 Certificate of Compliance - (SPECIAL EMPHASIS MATERIAL) The Contractor must prepare and submit a certificate of compliance certifying that the items/components furnished under this contract comply with the requirements of the procurement document, including any/all invoked specifications and drawings. 3.7 Configuration Control - The Contractor must maintain the total equipment baseline configuration.

Records of all inspection and maintenance performed on bailed property must be maintained. 3.14.9 Material returned to the contractor must be handled as GFM. 3.15 Traceability and Certification Requirements - To assure that correct materials are installed in Level I/SUBSAFE systems, it is imperative that traceability be maintained from the material to the material certification test report and other required Objective Quality Evidence (OQE). The material certification report must completely and accurately reflect that the material supplied meets the specified requirements. 3.15.1 The following provides the minimum requirements for maintaining material traceability and supplements the requirements specified in DI-MISC-81020 and elsewhere in the contract/purchase order. The Contractor must develop written procedures that implement the material control requirements stated herein. 3.16 Material Traceability - The certification data report must be identified through a unique traceability number, heat-lot number, or heat-treat number, as applicable, which must also be marked on the material. This traceability marking on the material must provide direct traceability to the material's chemical composition and mechanical properties certification data. For material produced by batch, continuous cast, or continuous pour processes, samples must be taken no less than once in every eight hours of operation for the purpose of validating proper chemical composition and mechanical properties. Traceability must be maintained through all process operations including any subcontracted operations, to the finished component. 3.17 See CDRL DI-MISC-81020 (Chemical and Mechanical) - Material Certification - In addition to the certification data requirements specified in DI-MISC-81020, the following material certification requirements apply: 3.17.1 Quantitative chemical and mechanical analysis of material is required ;in accordance with MIL-DTL-1222; .Test reports must be traceable to traceability marking on the material. Material certification test reports must include the class, form, condition, grade, type, finish, and/or composition, as applicable, of the material supplied. 3.17.2 Re-identification and re-certification of material is required when the material is subjected to a process which alters it's properties. If the starting material or raw stock is processed in a manner that will not affect its chemical composition or mechanical properties, the original certifications for the chemical composition and mechanical properties, as required by the material specification, are acceptable. Re-certification of the chemical or mechanical properties is required if a process is used during fabrication that alters the original properties of the material (e.g. alloying, heat treating, or forming). In these instances, the properties of the material must be re-determined and documented to reflect the altered condition. The altered material must be uniquely re-identified. The properties thus determined and documented, are required for final certification and must conform to the material specification or the contract/purchase order requirements. When only the mechanical properties are altered, the original certification for chemical composition must be overstamped and/or annotated with the unique traceability marking used with the altered material and at a minimum contain the information below. TRACEABILITY MARKING ________________________________________________ (marking on finished item) IS FABRICATED FROM RAW MATERIAL IDENTIFIED TO HEAT/LOT NUMBER ________________ AND HEAT TREAT NUMBER ________________________ (when applicable) _________________________________________ DATE _____________________ (name and signature of auth. co. rep.) 3.17.3 Material certification data forwarded by the manufacturer must contain a signed certification that the report results represent the actual attributes of the material furnished and indicate full compliance with all applicable specification and contract requirements. Transcription of certification data is prohibited. 3.17.4 Statements on material certification documents must be positive and unqualified. Disclaimers such as "to the best of our knowledge" or "we believe the information contained herein is true" are not acceptable. 3.17.5 If material is received without the required certification papers or with incorrect/missing data on the certification papers, the material will be rejected. 3.18 Material Marking for Traceability and Identification - The following are the minimum marking requirements. Additional/alternate marking requirements, if applicable, will be specified elsewhere in the contract/purchase order. In addition to the marking requirements on applicable drawings and/or specifications, marking for traceability is required. All traceability marking must be permanently applied in accordance with MIL-STD-792 (except as specified below). An alternate marking method is permissible provided it is an available option in the contractually invoked specification or drawing, except in instances where the material has been modified by this contract/purchase order and differs from that specified in the specification or drawing. 3.18.1 Fasteners must be marked in accordance with ;MIL-DTL-1222; . The method of marking must be types I, II, III, V, VIII or IX of MIL-STD-792 except for grades 410, 416 and 431 in the H condition and grades 8, 630, A574, and 4340 which must be marked by method II when marking is applied after the final heat treatment. Markings on fasteners that are to be coated must be marked prior to coating and have a minimum depth of 4 mils. Traceability marking must be legible after the application of protective compounds. 3.18.2 Marking is required for all fasteners regardless of size and must include the material symbol, the manufacturer's identification symbol, and the traceability marking. Marking must be applied on the head of headed fastener (top preferred, side location if necessary). Where no contract invoked specification requirement exists for this marking, self-locking fasteners must be marked with six dots approximately .032" diameter, raised or depressed by approximately .010" located on the top perimeter of the head of the fastener in an arc or circular pattern. The six dots must be distinguishable from all other required markings. 3.19 Material Handling - The written material control process must include the following: 3.19.1 All raw materials must have traceability markings (except as specified below). 3.19.2 Stored raw materials requiring traceability must be segregated to preclude intermingling with materials not requiring traceability. 3.19.3 When traceability markings will be removed by a manufacturing or fabrication process, the marking must be recorded prior to removal and be immediately restored upon completion of the process. If this cannot be done or is impractical, an appropriate material control procedure (such as a bag and tag, tagging, and/or tote box control) must be employed. The material control procedure must provide a method of positive control to preclude commingling of heats or loss of traceability. The traceability marking must be reapplied upon completion of the final manufacturing process. 3.19.4 Purchase orders for raw material must specify that the material be traceable to material certification test reports by the traceability marking on the material and identified on the test reports. The certification data requirements contained in DI-MISC-81020 must be invoked by the prime contractor on all subcontractors supplying Level I material. 3.19.5 The material control process must include requirements for the maintenance of traceability for items sent out for subcontracted operations. If such operations would remove traceability markings, purchase or work orders must specify a method and marking location for remarking. The contractor must also ensure that subcontractor production controls are adequate to preclude commingling of materials during processing. 3.20 Receiving inspection - 3.20.1 Products and services produced by sub-tier suppliers for incorporation in the contract end item must be subject to inspection or audit at the time of receipt by the prime prior to further processing within the prime contractor's plant or shipment to another location. 3.20.2 Receiving Inspection must include as a minimum - Verification that the traceability marking on the material agrees with that on the certification test reports. Verification that certification test reports are legible and complete. Verification that the contents of the certification test reports are in compliance with the contractually invoked specifications and requirements. 3.21 Discrepancy reporting - 3.21.1 Nonconforming products from sub-tier suppliers must be identified and processed in accordance with the prime contractor's procedures for controlling nonconforming products. The prime contractor must report the receipt of any nonconforming products to the responsible sub-tier supplier in accordance with established procedures. Nonconforming material records will be maintained and available for review by the government Quality Assurance Representative (QAR). 3.22 Final Inspection - The following inspections must be performed prior to Government inspection and acceptance. 3.22.1 Material Sampling - Material must be inspected for form, fit, and function. Lot acceptance must be based on zero defects and lot rejection based on one defect. The sample size must be in accordance with the sampling plan(s) in the applicable military specification or standard, federal specification or standard, or drawing to which the material was manufactured. In the absence of such sampling plans, sampling inspection must be per ANSI/ASQ-Z1.4, general inspection level II (for sample size selection code), table IIA (for sample size). SMALL LOT SIZES - For lot sizes of fifty or less, the minimum sample size must be eight units. For lot sizes of eight or less, the sample size must be one hundred percent of the lot. 3.22.2 The Manufacturer may elect to use Statistical Process Control (SPC) to assure product quality in lieu of the above attribute sampling plan, provided the SPC methodology/system used provides acceptable products to the Government. However, the Government/Navy Receipt Inspection Activity may perform their acceptance inspection of the material using the attribute sampling plan outlined above. 3.22.3 All data concerning material verification (chemical and mechanical properties), traceability (material certifications to material marking), and nondestructive test (NDT) certifications for material must be 100% inspected. The certification test reports must also be 100% inspected for completeness and legibility. 3.22.4 All metallic material must be 1...

Material certification test reports must include the class, form, condition, grade, type, finish, and/or composition, as applicable, of the material supplied. 3.16.2 Re-identification and re-certification of material is required when the material is subjected to a process which alters it's properties. If the starting material or raw stock is processed in a manner that will not affect its chemical composition or mechanical properties, the original certifications for the chemical composition and mechanical properties, as required by the material specification, are acceptable. Re-certification of the chemical or mechanical properties is required if a process is used during fabrication that alters the original properties of the material (e.g. alloying, heat treating, or forming). In these instances, the properties of the material must be re-determined and documented to reflect the altered condition. The altered material must be uniquely re-identified with a new traceability number. The properties thus determined and documented, are required for final certification and must conform to the material specification or the contract/purchase order requirements. When only the mechanical properties are altered, the original certification forchemical composition must be overstamped and annotated with the unique traceability marking used with the altered material and at a minimum contain the information below. 3.16.3 Material certification data forwarded by the manufacturer must contain a signed certification that the report results represent the actual attributes of the material furnished and indicate full compliance with all applicable specification and contract requirements. Transcription of certification data is prohibited. 3.16.4 ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES. 3.16.5 Electronic signatures on Level I certification documents are consideredequivalent to handwritten signatures. 3.16.6 Suppliers that use electronic signatures to authenticate company certifications and reports must ensure that process is controlled and unique to the individual signing the document.

The authentication method must be based on something known only to the signer (e.g., a password) or based on something only the signer possesses (e.g., a card or other device). 3.16.8 Electronic signature applications must not allow unauthorized users tochange electronically signed documents or records. All changes to electronically signed documents or records made by authorized users must be revision- or date-controlled, must identify the person making the change, and must clearly reflect that the document or record has been revised. 3.16.9 The prime contractor, as a minimum, must flow down the electronic signature requirements to their sub-tier suppliers and sub-contractors that provide electronically signed company certifications and reports to ensure that they have a procedure to control and identify unique processes for only allowing authorized individuals to sign documents. 3.16.10 Statements on material certification documents must be positive and unqualified. Disclaimers such as "to the best of our knowledge" or "we believe the information contained herein is true" are not acceptable. 3.16.11 If material is received without the required certification papers or with incorrect/missing data on the certification papers, the material will be rejected. 3.16.12 Revisions of OQE must be provided by the originating organization and must include a description of the data modified along with the proper signature requirements herein. 3.16.13 In cases of foreign certification, conversion of foreign language unitsof measure and properties measured into U.S. units of measure must be annotated on the furnished foreign certifications, if space permits, or placed on an addendum in the same format as the foreign certification data. Such conversion must be identified as to origin with name, title, and signature of the authorized representative of the company making the conversion. 3.16.14 The certification data requirements contained in this appendix must beinvoked on the prime contractor who must delegate these requirements to all sub-tier contractors supplying Level I material. 3.17 Material Handling - The written material control process must include the following: 3.17.1 All raw materials must have traceability markings (except as specified below). 3.17.2 Stored raw materials requiring traceability must be segregated to preclude intermingling with materials not requiring traceability. 3.17.3 When traceability markings will be removed by a manufacturing or fabrication process, the marking must be recorded prior to removal and be immediately restored upon completion of the process. If this cannot be done or is impractical, an appropriate material control procedure (such as a bag and tag, tagging, and/or tote box control) must be employed. The material control procedure must provide a method of positive control to preclude commingling of heats/lots or loss of traceability. The traceability marking must be reapplied upon completion of the final manufacturing process. 3.17.4 Brazing or weld filler metals for strength welds forming or integral with pressure containing components or assemblies requiring traceability must be verified to be the correct material, and type or grade, as applicable, prior to consumption. At a minimum, material verification must consist of inspection of material test reports for conformance to specified requirements. Control of welding and brazing filler metals must be maintained to the point of consumption to assure use of the correct type and grade. Markings and traceability requirements do not apply to brazing and weld filler metals after consumption. It is the responsibility of the prime contractor to ensure conformance with the above requirements on welds performed by their subcontractors. 3.17.5 Purchase orders for raw material must specify that the material be traceable to material certification test reports by traceability markings on the material and identified on the test reports. The certification data requirements contained in DI-MISC-81020 must be invoked by the prime contractor on all subcontractors supplying Level I material. 3.17.6 The material control process must include requirements for the maintenance of traceability for items sent out for subcontracted operations. If such operations would remove traceability markings, purchase or work orders must specify a method and marking location for remarking. The contractor must also ensure that subcontractor production controls are adequate to preclude commingling of materials during processing. 3.18 Receiving inspection - 3.18.1 Products and services produced by sub-tier suppliers for incorporation in the contract end item must be subject to inspection or audit at the time of receipt by the prime prior to further processing within the prime contractor's plant or shipment to another location. 3.18.2 Receiving Inspection must include as a minimum - Verification that the traceability marking on the material agrees with that on the certification test reports. Verification that certification test reports are legible and complete. Verification that the contents of the certification test reports are in compliance with the contractually invoked specifications and requirements. 3.19 Discrepancy reporting - 3.19.1 Nonconforming products from sub-tier suppliers must be identified and processed in accordance with the prime contractor's procedures for controlling nonconforming products. The prime contractor must report the receipt of any nonconforming products to the responsible sub-tier supplier in accordance with established procedures. Nonconforming material records must be maintained and available for review by the government Quality Assurance Representative (QAR). 3.20 Final Inspection - The following inspections must be performed prior to Government inspection and acceptance. 3.20.1 Material Sampling - Material must be inspected for form, fit, and function. Lot acceptance must be based on zero defects and lot rejection based on one defect. The sample size must be in accordance with the sampling plan(s) in the applicable military specification or standard, federal specification or standard, or drawing to which the material was manufactured. In the absence of such sampling plans, sampling inspection must be per ANSI/ASQ-Z1.4, general inspection level II (for sample size selection code), table IIA (for sample size). SMALL LOT SIZES - For lot sizes of fifty or less, the minimum sample size must be eight units. For lot sizes of eight or less, the sample size must be one hundred percent of the lot. 3.20.2 The Manufacturer may elect to use Statistical Process Control (SPC) to assure product quality in lieu of the above attribute sampling plan, provided that the SPC methodology/system used provides acceptable products to the Government. However, the Government/Navy Receipt Inspection Activity may perform their acceptance inspection of the material using the attribute sampling plan outlined above. 3.20.3 All data concerning material verification (chemical, mechanical or physical properties), traceability (material certifications to material marking), and nondestructiv...

Silicon Valley Innovation Program 5-Year Other Transaction Solicitation
The mission of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) includes rapid identification and development of new technologies to counter emerging threats. Traditional procurement contracts are used to purchase supplies and services for the direct benefit and use of DHS, while assistance is provided through grants and cooperative agreements. Recognizing that those traditional instruments do not cover all the DHS needs, Congress provided DHS with authority to enter into “Other Transactions” in the same manner as the Department of Defense. DHS has developed a framework to utilize the flexibility of the Other Transaction Authority (OTA). This “Innovation Other Transaction Solicitation” (OTS) is a vehicle to engage with organizations that do not usually work with the Government in order to carry out prototype projects and possibly transition successful projects to production. This engagement is intended to assist new companies, so they have more opportunities to work with DHS through targeted non-dilutive funding and provide opportunities for operational testing and market access. Through the DHS Science and Technology Directorate’s (S&T’s) Silicon Valley Innovation Program (SVIP), DHS intends to incentivize product developers to open the aperture of their development roadmaps to include homeland security solutions. Please see additional information regarding this opportunity in the attached document. The Government is not requesting applications at this time. Submission requirements, content, and formatting for applications and other required documentation shall be in accordance with each Technical Call. Applicants should periodically check the SAM.gov website for any amendments to this solicitation and the associated Calls.

Simultaneous synchronized/correlated imagery for multiple spectra including Electrical-Optical (EO)/Infrared (IR) Ultraviolet (UV), Visible (Vis), Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR), Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR), Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) and RF (Ku, Ka, & W bands). High resolution complex and dynamic multi-object, clutter, and background scenes including empirical or physics-based sky, terrestrial, maritime, and celestial targets and backgrounds; propagation/environmental attenuation; countermeasure effects. Target and background modeling systems that enable rapid model development, possibly utilizing readily available data (commercial, satellite, data collects, etc.). Compatibility with industry standard digital video interfaces such as Digital Visual Interface (DVI), High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), and DisplayPort, and existing high-bandwidth, high- speed transfer technologies such as Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) over fiber. EO/IR characteristics - High apparent temperatures (? 2000 degrees Celsius), large frame sizes(?2048x2048), high frame rate (?400Hz), wide field-of-view (?30 degrees), high radiance resolution(?16-bit), low jitter (< 1 microradian) and low latency (< 1 frame or microseconds). RF characteristics – High image content (>2400 scatterers per-target X 8 targets plus backgrounds), high frame rates (>1200Hz), wide field-of-view (?30 degrees), high dynamic range, low jitter (< 1 microradian) and low latency (< 1 microseconds). Technology Area #2: Midcourse and navigation environment emulation/simulation. Simulation/emulation and real-time projection/injection capabilities for PNT such as Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and alternative PNT solutions. Solutions shall include propagation, environmental, and countermeasure effects. Technology Area #3: Datalink and radio communication emulation/simulation. Real-time projection/injection for multi- protocol datalink and radio communication to/from/between multiple guided weapon systems and/or digital simulations of weapon systems (e.g. swarm) including propagation, environmental, and countermeasure effects; emulation/simulation of large networks, network loading, and transport; emulation/simulation of commercial low earth orbit satellite communication networks. Technology Area #4: High frame rate real-time simulation execution.
