Description

This is NOT a solicitation. This is a sources sought synopsis of the intended procurement of PDSS LRU spares in support of the SBIRS S2E2 Program being managed by the United States Space Force (USSF) Space Systems Command (SSC). This sources sought is intended to be used for Market Research to assist the Government with developing the acquisition strategy.

The SBIRS Survivable Endurable Evolution (S2E2) Mobile Ground System (SMGS) replaces the legacy Air National Guard-operated Mobile Ground System (MGS), originally developed in the 1960s to support Defense Support Program (DSP) operations, with a modern, transportable ground station capable of processing data from the SBIRS and nuclear detonation (NUDET) detection systems. S2E2 substantially advances survivable/endurable Missile Warning capability, survivability, and operational flexibility.

S2E2 is comprised of multiple sub-systems, to include the PDSS antenna. With the S2E2 system entering sustainment, the PDSS requires sparing for custom-built Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) that were not purchased under the original antenna manufacturing. The LRUs insert into the legacy SBIRS PDSS antenna subsystem to provide two-way space-ground mission links for the program.

Specific LRUs within the PDSS are required to be manufactured for sparing. The intended LRUs perform various functions such as up conversion, down conversion, reference timing splitting, interfacing with various status and control circuitry (RS-422, ethernet, fiber optic IFL links, etc.). Basic functional descriptions of the LRU Modules are provided in the table below to provide general information for the LRU capabilities. The Government is reviewing trades for build-to-print LRUs versus new designs for the following modules. Final requirements are outside the scope of this RFI. Several LRUs are integrated into confined spaces for a transportable antenna with harsh environmental requirements.
