The Space and Naval Warfare SystemsCommand (SPAWARSYSCOM), on

behalf of the Joint Program Executive

Office Joint Tactical Radio Systems

(JPEO JTRS) and its Ground Mobile

Radio (GMR) Program Office, intends

to award a sole source contract

modification under contract DAAB07-02-

C-C403 with The Boeing Company in

Huntington Beach, California to procure

additional Engineering Development

Model (EDM) radios and to provide up

to two years of logistical support

services for the radios. This action is

an extension of work currently on

contract. Under contract DAAB07-02-C-

C403, The Boeing Company is

responsible for developing and

acquiring numerous Software

Communications Architecture (SCA)

compliant waveforms, defining

common form-fit-function

configurations for vehicular and

aviation versions of the JTRS hardware,

and successfully porting the waveforms

to JTRS hardware produced by two

different manufacturers. GMR is a

software reprogrammable radio

providing the warfighter with a multi-

band and multi-mode capable,

networkable radio system that provides

simultaneous voice, data and video

communications to increase

interoperability, flexibility and

adaptability in support of the varied

mission requirements. This contract

was competitively awarded on 24 June

2002. Since the contract award,

emerging customer requirements have

significantly increased the quantity of

EDM radios required. This modification

will procure the additional radios

needed (approx. 140 radios) in order

to meet the communications

requirements of two vital programs:

Future Combat Systems (FCS) and

Warfighter Information Network

Tactical (WIN-T). The anticipated

value of this procurement is

$74,244,000. Delivery of these

radios to FCS and WIN-T will begin on

or around December 2009. The

anticipated award date for this effort is

early FY 2009. Firm Fixed Price and

Time and Material contract line items

are anticipated to be awarded for this

effort. The applicable North American

Industry Classification (NAICS) code is

541712, Research and Development.

Questions pertaining to this acquisition

should be addressed via e-mail to Kim

Harvill at kim.harvill@navy.mil not later

than 10 October 2008.
