This is a modification to a previous synopsis (07-14) posted on19 December 2006. The Global Positioning Systems Wing (GPSW) is more accurately renaming the Architecture Evolution Plan (AEP) Crew Training Emulator (CTE) to identify the need for a Positional Training Emulator (PTE). The GPSW intends to award a sole-source, Cost-Plus-Award Fee (CPAF) modification to contract F04701-96-C-0025 to develop an AEP PTE to train incoming Air Force Space Command personnel prior to fielding of the new AEP Command and Control (C2) capability. The AEP PTE shall be based on actual AEP mission hardware and software, modified for training purposes. The period of performance for this effort shall be for a one year period in which the first six months the Initial Training Capabilities (ITC) shall be delivered, and six months thereafter the Advanced Training Capabilities (ATC) shall be delivered. The intended source for this effort is The Boeing Company, 5301 Bolsa Avenue, Huntington Beach, CA 92647. The Government has an urgent and compelling need to field an initial AEP PTE capability no later than the Summer of 2007 based on 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c) (2) and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-2(a)(2). Boeing is the single prime contractor for the GPS Block IIF Operational Control Segment (OCS). As the developer of the AEP system, they are uniquely qualified to develop the AEP PTE. All Statement of Capabilities should have been submitted during the original response time. Any further inquiries should be submitted to [email protected]. Any information submitted in response to this synopsis is strictly voluntary. The Government does not reimburse respondents for any cost associated with submission of the information or reimburse expenses incurred by parties for responses to this Special Notice.
