Base Notice: Space Systems Command (SSC) Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) Research and Development (R&D) Effort. RFP

Description: This active SAM.gov presolicitation is a sources-sought notice for the Space Systems Command (SSC) Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) Research and Development effort. The SSC Wide Field of View (WFOV) Program Office is seeking potential vendors for calibration, characterization, engineering, maintenance, and post-launch support for the WFOV Testbed Wide-Area Six Degree Payload (WASP), although the notice states an intent to sole-source to L3-Harris. Responses will support market research and selection of an acquisition strategy for Department of Defense and national OPIR initiatives; the posting identifies it as a presolicitation contract opportunity rather than a grant.
