On November 8, the Space Systems Command (SSC) posted a sources sought notice for Meadowlands sustainment. Responses are due by 4:00 p.m. Pacific on December 6.
SSC, located at Los Angeles Air Force Base, California, is seeking information in the form of Statements of Capabilities (SOC) from interested parties in support of the SSC, Space Domain Awareness and Combat Power Directorate requirement for the Counter Communications System (CCS) Meadowlands as described below. The Government is conducting market research to inform its Acquisition Strategy.
The Government is seeking contractors interested in and capable of Preforming the Meadowlands Sustainment Contract, which will be a follow-on contract to the SCDS contract (Contract #FA8819-08-C-0001) which currently provides sustainment support services for Meadowlands. The programs supported by this contract will be the EWTIP Meadowlands Missions and the Meadowlands System. For planning purposes, the anticipated award date for this Meadowlands Sustainment effort is Mid FY25.
CCS is a ground-based counter satellite communications (SATCOM) system specifically designed to reversibly deny, disrupt, and degrade adversarial SATCOM. The basic CCS concept is to provide a flexible, modular, scalable, rapidly deployable system with a key set of signal processing/generation (SP) capabilities, selected counter SATCOM missions, and a robust transmit capability. Its architecture will be designed to host core capabilities and/or other more sophisticated “plug and play” type modules to address the ever-increasing number of technologies and assets available to our adversaries.
The latest CCS Meadowlands will have upgraded capabilities compared to the existing CCS 10.2 Systems. The future CCS Meadowlands fleet will compose of 32 systems. Meadowlands is a transportable SATCOM system composed of modular Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) / Government Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) Radio Frequency (RF) monitoring and generation equipment. The design incorporates multi-band antennas and equipment in transit cases. The frequency conversion system (FCS) that handles RF signals between the shelter transit cases to the antenna uses a proprietary photonics system. The system can be transported by C-130 or larger aircraft and by ground transport over improved or semi-improved roads. The system will be designed for operations by trained operators in US-controlled facilities world-wide, and in the Developmental Support Facility (DSF).
