Acquisition of Commercial Items under FAR Part 12 and Simplified Acquisitions Procedures under FAR Part 13 apply. The applicable NAICS Code is 334111 and the business size standard is 1,000 employees. Concurrent Computer iHawk real-time simulation computers with customized interfaces (afterbody, acoustic) are presently being used to support all high fidelity simulations. In order to reuse the existing environment-centric WAF torpedo simulation code with no new software development, iHawk computers are required to support the existing simulations with the same interfaces and drivers. The computers must be 100% compatible with the existing HWIL hardware suite in order to avoid any integration problems. Concurrent Computer Corporation provides multi-core hardware that includes syncable real-time clocks, multiple external interrupts, real-time kernel, drivers, and software development tools. The cost to re-host the simulation on different computers would be excessive and it would cause major delays to the FNC programs. Having different platforms to support the same systems would severely limit the usage as it would need to be separately accredited for use at a great expense and cause maintainability issues in the facility due to it being a unique system.

The resultant contract will be:
Firm-fixed price contract, on a sole source basis
FOB Destination
Delivery is required within 12 weeks of issuance of contract for the following line items:
