This award notice details a contract from the Army Contracting Command, Redstone Arsenal, to Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control for advanced missile system development: - Government Buyer: - Army Contracting Command, Redstone Arsenal (ACC-RSA) - OEM Highlight: - Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control is the sole OEM and awardee - Products/Services Requested: - Incremental design, build, and testing of the Missile Segment Enhancement (MSE) Containerized Launcher (CL) - Includes engineering and testing assets for Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) testing, environmental qualification, live-fire flight tests, first article inspection, and validation of assembly/testing processes - Proprietary software redesign and hardware/software baseline establishment - Incremental design, build, and testing of the Remote Interceptor Guidance 360 Degrees (RIG-360) Containerized System (CS) - Interceptor datalink device integrating with the Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) architecture - Support for flight test execution, HWIL, walk-ups, post-mission debriefing, and data analysis - Unique/Notable Requirements: - Lockheed Martin is the only source with the required technical data and expertise due to the proprietary nature of the PAC-3 MSE missile and launcher electronics - No specific part numbers or quantities are provided - Scope includes both hardware and proprietary software redesign, as well as integration with IBCS

Description

This award is for the incremental design, build, and test of the following major end items (MEIs):

MSE CL Increment 1 (MSE CL INC 1), to include providing engineering and testing assets to support performance of Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) testing using Lockheed Martin and Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) Fires facilities, conducting a Design Maturity Review (DMR), and establishing the preliminary hardware and software baseline; MSE CL Increment 2 (MSE CL INC 2), to include providing engineering and test assets to support environment qualification testing, address deviations and substantiating fixes from MSL CL INC 1, and performing failure mode and criticality analysis and electronic parts / circuit tolerance analysis; MSE CL Increment 3 (MSE CL INC 3), to include providing engineering and test assets to support live-fire flight test events, conducting pre-flight checkouts, walk-ups, and test missile loading; MSE CL Increment 4 (MSE CL INC 4), to include providing engineering and test assets to support first article inspection, and validation of assembly processes and testing processes; MSE CL Increment 5 (MSE CL INC 5);

RIG-360 CS Increment 1 (RIG-360 CS INC 1); RIG-360 CS Increment 2 (RIG-360 CS INC 2); RIG-360 CS Increment 3 (RIG-360 CS INC 3).

MSE CL is an air defense launcher capable of transporting, raising, firing Phased Array Tracking to Intercept On Target (PATRIOT) Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) MSE munitions and operating as a componentized weapon in the Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) architecture utilizing existing PAC-3 MSE launcher electronics.

MSE CL scope for this requirement includes performing incremental design, development, and test improvements of MSE CL, including propriety software redesign on MSE Missile, Launcher Electronics, and Fire Control, and establishing hardware/software baselines for each increment.

RIG-360 is an interceptor datalink device, which integrates with IBCS through an Integrated Fire Control Network (IFCN) Relay, and communicates with any PAC-3 MSE interceptor within its communication range.

RIG-360 CS scope for this requirement includes performing updated design, development, and testing of a RIG-360 CS of prototype pedigree. In addition, the contractor shall support flight test execution for demonstrating the MSE CL and RIG-360 CS, including all HWIL, walk-ups, and post-mission debriefing and data analysis.

Award was made to Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control (LMMFC), 1701 West Marshall Drive, Grand Prairie, Texas 75051, commercial and government entity (CAGE) code 64059. In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(A) and (B), Due to the proprietary nature of the PAC-3 MSE missile and Launcher Electronics data processing LMMFC is the only source with knowledge, expertise, and full disclosure technical data package (TDP) to perform this effort. The Government does not have the necessary intellectual property rights to utilize the data for full and open competition.
