Requirements

  • Generate dynamic ITW/AA simulations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, USSTRATCOM, United States Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM), Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), NORAD-USNORTHCOM, and other forward users to be used within the Joint Integrated Missile Warning/Defense Training System (JIMDTS) environment and on the operational Processing and Display Sub-system Migration (PDS-M), the Missile Analysis Reporting System (MARS), the Force Survivability Analysis and Management (FSAM), Global Command and Control System (GCCS), Decision Support System (DSS) and related products as generated from the USSTRATCOM/J7 scenario request. Lead times for scenario requests will be as long as practicable; however, due to the dynamic nature of training events, PDS-M simulations may be required to be delivered within 4 hours of scenario request and FSAM simulations may be required to be delivered within 1 week of scenario request.
  • Provide a configuration management scheme for the generation and maintenance of scenarios and define applicable quality control methods;
  • Provide NORAD and USNORTHCOM Missile Warning Training Suite (MWTS) software engineering, software and simulation enhancement, and command and control (C2) Battle Control System-Fixed (BCS-F) and Remote Tactical Air Picture (RTAP) system virtualization and integration. Objective is to expand the dynamic training capability for NORAD and USNORTHCOM to include software engineering, network engineering, software development, software and system integration, C2 system virtualization, and developmental and operational testing. Software development will focus on leveraging the existing work completed by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA). General tasks include software modification and enhancement, C2 system, BCS-F and RTAP virtualization, system integration, network engineering, development and integration of new and modified message sets, developmental and operational test of BCS-F and RTAP with Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration and modeling (AFSIM), providing technical expertise in modeling Air Warning, Missile Defense and Air Defense portion of Tier 1 Combatant Commander exercises.
  • Develop and support an interface between MDA’s Missile Defense Training Support System (TSS) or any subsequent replacement software, Integrated Command and Control System (IC2S) strategic missile warning capability — Combatant Commanders Integrated Command and Control System (CCIC2S) and GCCS.  Potential sources must work with teams from MDA and IC2S to ensure protocols are developed and adhered to.  Potential sources shall use Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS), High Level Assembly (HLA) or other agreed upon protocol that would ensure communication between various command and control systems to properly display data on CCIC2S; GCCS or other yet to be determined C2 systems.
  • Integrate the output of the Graphic User’s Interface (GUI) with the MWTS, the Protocol Data Unit (PDU) Converter, the Global Sensor Integration on Networks (GSIN) and the GCCS. The GUI shall generate messages in GSIN XML format. Simulation architecture and interfaces shall be compliant with Joint Live, Virtual, and Constructive (JLVC) federation requirements.
  • Develop, install, operate and maintain software utilized in the production of simulations for processing in NPES which generate automated, realistic, dynamic, scalable messages with near real-time system injections.
  • Provide formal configuration management, testing, and validation/verification of product development and integration. This includes the maintenance and development of software tools required to maintain compatibility with systems utilized in the execution of the tasks set out in paragraphs 3(a) – 3(f) above; and
  • Provide Modeling and Simulation (M&S) development, integration, and execution support and assistance, including supporting analysis, review, and assessment of key performance parameters and coordinating with appropriate system architects/engineers to resolve any issues or troubleshoot M&S tools being used and provide resolution to obtain the needed capability.
  • Provide frequent verbal communication and monthly status reports.  The monthly reports shall include the status of resources, resolution of previously reported problems, summary of the preceding month’s accomplishments, new problems encountered (if any), plans for the following month and the planned deliverables for the next month.
