Request for Information for Market Research
Analytical Services for the Missile Defense
Agency Director of Engineering Quick Reaction Team
1. Objective
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is conducting market research to determine interest in and capability to deliver analytical services to include, but not limited to, modeling and simulation (M&S) capabilities for:
  • a.  Medium fidelity modeling of all Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) elements to support estimation of Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) integrated system performance,
  • b.  Multi-day campaign modeling of the BMDS raids to include multiple warfighter shot doctrines and including the impacts of friendly force attrition,
  • c.  Models of Ground-Based Midcourse Defense Fire Control shot planning logic and
    shot guide to selection,
  • d.  Six degrees of freedom modeling of MDA ground-based interceptors,  
    • THAAD,  
    • Standard Missile-3, 
    •  PATRIOT, 
    • airborne interceptors and  
    • railgun projectiles,
  • e.  Kalman filter track estimation of BMD radars including 
    •  Sea-Based X-Band Radar, 
    • Army/Navy Transportable Radar Surveillance
    •  Upgraded Early Warning Radar, and 
    • Cobra Dane,
  • f.  Modeling and assessment of radar surveillance fences to include calculation of probability of detection and radar resources,
  • g.  Modeling of target object map correlation methods and statistical performance,
  • h.  Infrared discrimination modeling including generation of object features and multiple weighting techniques, and
  • i.  Radio frequency discrimination modeling including generation of object features and multiple weighting techniques.

  • The capability requires  
    • a model or models that have been validated, verified and accredited by a Department of Defense entity.  The outputs from the M&S activities must be consistent with MDA element higher fidelity modeling and simulation.   
    • a model or models that have been validated, verified and accredited by a Department of Defense entity and been shown to be consistent with MDA element higher fidelity modeling and simulation.
    • making comparative trade studies use the Prioritized Capability List and other stakeholder inputs such as definition of Phased Adaptive Approach phases, Analysis of Alternatives studies, and department guidance to produce an Architecture Vision and Roadmap and Initial Requirement Documents. 
    • performing analyses and delivering products that support the development of technical papers and briefings in response to requests for information and analysis from MDA senior leadership, US Combatant Commanders, the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the White House and Congress with occasional 24/7 surge support during real world events and other critical need efforts.   
    • performing analyses, delivering products and information that support MDA's response to Government Accountability Office audit action items.
