On January 13, the United States
Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) posted a presolicitation notice and
industry day invitation for the Targeted Requirement EXecution (T-REX) Multiple
Award Contract(s) (MAC) Follow-On contract. Responses are due by 12:00 p.m.
Eastern on January 27.
The purpose of this notice is to
inform industry of USSOCOM’s intent to issue a Solicitation for the follow-on
acquisition to the T-REX Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) MAC.
Additionally, this notice provides information regarding the upcoming Industry
Day and key areas of the current acquisition strategy in order to gain Industry
feedback. This announcement does not constitute a solicitation and proposals
are not being requested at this time.
The purpose for this multiple award
vehicle is to acquire Systems Integrators/Coordinators to provide Intelligence,
Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and Command, Control, Communication, and
Computers (C4) related equipment solutions and related incidental services to
the Government in four main categories; (1) System Integration, (2) Hardware
and Modifications, (3) Specialized Communication Solutions and Networks, and
(4) Signal Processing Capabilities. The scope predominantly consists of
supplying brand name equipment in the four main categories previously
identified, however there remains a need for continuous increased capability
and new technology insertions.
This follow-on effort will be another
Multiple Award IDIQ, Full and Open Competition with up to 1 prime contract
award reserved for the most highly rated small business Offeror received under
this solicitation. USSOCOM estimates a minimum of three and a maximum of six
prime awards. Various cost type arrangements will be allowable at the
delivery/task order (DO/TO) level (FFP, CPFF, CR, possibly more), however the
vast majority will be awarded on a FFP basis.
Industry Day:
Main Session: An Industry Day is currently scheduled to
take place on 29 January 2020 at the SOFWERX facility, located at 1925 E. 2nd
Avenue, Suite 102, Tampa, FL 33605. The day will begin at 0830 local
Tampa, FL time and will be kicked off with a welcome from PEO-SRSE leadership
and a short briefing from the Acquisition Team. A short Q&A session will
follow.
Individual Sessions: Additionally, those Industry partners interested in
proposing on this effort and desiring to provide value added
feedback on the forthcoming draft requirements and/or key strategy points will
be able to schedule a one-on-one session with SOCOM representatives, which are
currently planned to begin after the main Q&A session on the 29th and
continue throughout 30 January (dependent upon the number of sessions
requested).
The intent of the one-on-one sessions is to afford Industry an opportunity to ask specific, approach-dependent questions about the draft RFP for the T-REX follow-on contract.
