Description
THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. THIS SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE IS PUBLISHED FOR MARKET RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY. THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT SEEKING OR ACCEPTING UNSOLICITED PROPOSALS.
This is a Request for Information (RFI) as defined in FAR 15.201(e). The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), on behalf of the Command-and-Control Program Executive Office directorate (PEO IWS 6.0), is conducting market research to seek industry inputs and interest as well as identify potential sources that possess the capability to accomplish potential future requirements in support of the U.S. Navy-s next generation Inertial Navigation System (INS) designated the AN/WSN-12.
The information obtained in response to this RFI is intended to increase our understanding of industry interest and capability for INS and inform acquisition decisions related to the INS program.
SECTION 1: ABOUT INERTIAL NAVIGATION
Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) are a vital component used by both submarines and surface ships for precise navigation in the absence of reliable Global Positioning System (GPS) data. This system integrates gyroscopes and accelerometers to continuously measure the vessel's movement in three dimensions, providing accurate position, attitude, and velocity data relative to an initial starting point.
The AN/WSN-12 INS is completing development and being fielded at Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP). The AN/WSN-12 is the planned replacement for the Navy-s legacy AN/WSN-7 INS, widely fielded in the U.S. Navy Fleet. The AN/WSN-12 is a form, fit, function replacement for the AN/WSN-7, capable of being seamlessly backfit on existing naval platforms and being used in new construction platforms as well. The AN/WSN-12 utilizes a Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG) developed under contract N00024-16-C-5226 by Northrop Grumman Corporation and contains proprietary technology.
