NAVAIR RFI for Radar algorithm source alternative to Compass Systems

Aircraft and Laboratory Systems Sensor Development and Integration - Federal Business Opportunities: Opportunities

THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE
AVAILABLE. The following information is provided to assist the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAVAIR) Lakehurst, NJ in conducting market research of industry to identify if there are alternate options to meet USN needs for applied research development and testing of new radar algorithms for the APY-10 and APG-79 radars. This effort includes research of emerging technologies related to the radar technologies including correlation with other sensor systems to improve identification confidence and aide in classification of targets. This contracting effort will result in the delivery of an integrated control and test system with multiple node access. In addition, integration of the systems onboard the test aircraft is required.
 

At this time, pending market research results, NAVAIR Lakehurst, NJ intends to negotiate on a non-competitive basis with Compass Systems Inc. of Lexington Park, Md for the required research and development.   Compass Systems is the sole designer, developer and provider of key components of the software system which is crucial to the continued development of several radar systems the Navy already is using  operationally.
