The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, and Intelligence Service Center (C5ISC) has issued a Draft Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Next Generation Surface Search Radar (NXSSR) system. This initiative aims to replace five outdated radar systems—AN/SPS-50, AN/SPS-78, AN/SPS-79, AN/SPS-73, and Terma Scanter 2001—currently used across 13 cutter platforms and 113 Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) remote sites. The new scalable, IMO-certified Shipborne Surveillance Radar system will enhance collision avoidance, navigation, and surveillance, improving situational awareness and operational efficiency. The contract will be an Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) to procure hardware, software/firmware, and support services such as installation, training, and maintenance. All solutions must comply with various national and international standards, including NMEA, MIL-STD, IEC, and DHS/USCG Enterprise Architecture policies, with specific Section 508 accessibility requirements for documentation and services.

This government file outlines a comprehensive price schedule for parts and services related to CG Cutters and VTS Remote Site Locations, as well as a price proposal for Task Order 1 – SDK/ARPA Application. The document details a ten-year pricing structure (Years 1-10) for various marine electronics parts, including X-band and S-band radar components, marine monitors, data converters, and other related equipment, with proposed stepladder pricing based on quantity ordered. It also includes a schedule for SDK and ARPA application services, annual licenses, and instructions for offerors to complete specific fields. The total evaluated price will consider projected installations, pricing, and expected ordering by fiscal year, multiplied by the proposed stepladder pricing. The file explicitly states that offerors must provide data only in highlighted fields and avoid inputting formulas to prevent rounding errors.

The Draft RFP 70Z04426RC2PL2503 outlines comprehensive logistics requirements for the Next Generation Surface Search Radar (NXSSR) System. Contractors must submit a detailed logistics plan addressing system delivery, sustainment, component commonality, and continuity throughout the contract and warranty periods. Key requirements include providing Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF), reparability levels, and expected end-of-support dates for each component. If support ends within five years, contractors must propose backward-compatible replacements. The plan must also detail protocols and timelines for notifying the Coast Guard (CG) of end-of-life or critical maintenance issues, software update implementation, and strategies to minimize the logistical footprint while maximizing common components. A significant focus is on Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortage (DMSMS) monitoring, requiring a proactive, four-tier approach to identify discontinued components, verify alternative sources, analyze options, and implement resolutions at least 18 months in advance. Contractors must also ensure replacement components minimize design changes and provide integration assistance. The CG's stringent configuration control process necessitates 12-month lead times for approving changes, requiring contractors to provide timely notifications for component changes or end-of-life to ensure compliance.

The document outlines detailed marking, packaging, delivery, and inspection requirements for items under RFP: 70Z04426RC2PL2503 for the USCG. It specifies adherence to ASTM D 3951, MIL-STD-2073-1E, MIL-STD-129P, and MIL-STD-130N for preservation, packaging, and marking. Barcoding is mandatory, with specific data fields for vessel installation kits and spare parts. Delivery locations vary between Portsmouth, VA, for initial orders and Baltimore, MD, for subsequent orders of vessel install kits and spare parts. Preservation requirements include lubricating exposed surfaces, sealing piping to prevent contamination, and shrink-wrapping major components. Packaging guidelines mandate individual or designated unit packaging, clear identification, and specific container types for different item sizes. Durability and protection during transport and storage for at least one year are emphasized. Marking for shipments to the SFLC Inventory Control Point must comply with MIL-STD-129P, including NSN, condition code, and unit of issue. Warranted items require specific markings, and a DD Form 250 or Commercial Bill of Lading, along with detailed packing slips, are required for each delivery.

This government file, Solicitation Number 70Z04426RC2PL2503, outlines the detailed requirements for a New Radar System for federal government use. The document specifies comprehensive hardware specifications for primary system components, including flat panel displays, Stand-Alone Operator Positions (SAOPs), multi-mission consoles, X-Band and S-Band Turning Units, and an IMO Processor Unit, with particular attention to ice radar capabilities for icebreakers. It details processor interfaces, data output protocols (SDK/API, NMEA 0183, NMEA 2000, NMEA OneNet, IEC-61162-450), and essential operator controls like keyboards, trackballs, and audible alarms. The file also covers critical compliance standards for environmental factors (temperature, humidity, shock, vibration, EMI/RFI), electrical power, and human factors design (MIL-STD-1472H). Furthermore, it defines specific performance criteria for transmission (X-band and S-band), performance optimization, gain and anti-clutter functions, signal processing, operation with SARTs, minimum range, range and bearing discrimination, and target detection capabilities. Display presentation requirements, including characteristics, symbols, and track labels, are outlined, alongside specifications for Consistent Common Reference Point (CCRP) and Own Ship data. Finally, it addresses navigation tools, units of measurement, display range scales, Variable Range Markers (VRM), Electronic Bearing Lines (EBL), and cursor functionalities. This RFP aims to procure a radar system that meets stringent international and federal standards for maritime navigation and operational performance.

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, and Intelligence Service Center (C5ISC) is seeking a Next Generation Surface Search Radar (NXR) system to replace five outdated radar systems on 14 cutter platforms and 113 Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) remote sites. The new scalable, IMO-certified system must enhance collision avoidance, navigation, and surveillance, ensuring interoperability between afloat and ashore components and integrating with existing navigation systems. The project requires adherence to various compliance documents, including Coast Guard Navigation Standards, NMEA standards, MIL-STDs, and IEC standards. The contractor must also comply with DHS and USCG Enterprise Architecture policies, Section 508 accessibility requirements for training documentation, and stringent cybersecurity policies, including FIPS 197 encryption, supply chain risk management, and security authorizations for hosted systems.

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, and Intelligence Service Center (C5ISC) is seeking a contractor to develop a Next Generation Surface Search Radar (NXSSR) Software Development Kit (SDK) and an Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA) Application. This initiative addresses the obsolescence of existing Surface Search Radar (SSR) systems across 14 cutter platforms and 113 Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) remote sites, including models like the AN/SPS-50, AN/SPS-78, AN/SPS-79, AN/SPS-73, and Terma Scanter 2001. The project encompasses four key tasks: developing a customizable SDK for radar integration, creating an ARPA Application that interfaces with C2 systems via LAN to provide radar video, target data, and control functions, providing enterprise licensing for both the SDK and ARPA Application, and delivering comprehensive SDK documentation for software developers. The ARPA Application must also include AIS track correlation and adhere to specific delivery requirements, including Git repository updates and a Software Version Document (SVD).
