The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) in support of the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), Program Executive Office, Submarines (PEO SUB), Maritime Surveillance Systems Program Office (PMS 485) is conducting market research to identify industrys technological capabilities to design and manufacture an active sonar subsystem to outfit the planned T-AGOS X ship class, which is included in the Navys Shipbuilding Plan and expected to be funded in FY22.
The Government is considering an acquisition strategy which includes multiple award development contracts with a competitive down select for production. The Government would like to learn about industrys ability to design and manufacture each subcomponent and/or the subsystem as a whole, any perceived risks on capability requirements, and the potential acquisition timeline. Major components of an Active Subsystem include: Projector Assemblies, Amplifiers, Marine Mammal Monitoring (M3) Sonar, Cabling, Connectors, Junction Boxes, Array Motion Monitor (AMM) Sensors, and a Handling System.
THIS IS A RFI ONLY. THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF SOLICITATION ISSUANCE. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future.
