The United States Army Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO) is issuing this Sources Sought notice to identify if there are any responsible providers in support of the RCCTO Weather Analysis and Survivability Prediction (WAASP) for Hypersonic Joint Flight Campaign Testing. This notice is published in accordance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations (DFARS) Procedures, Guidance, and Information (PGI) 206.302-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, and is a Sources Sought notice only in support of market research. All information received will be used for planning purposes only. This notice does not constitute Invitation for Bids, Request for Proposals, or Request for Quotes. The Government will not reimburse respondents for any cost associated with responses to this notice. U.S. Army RCCTO has a requirement, along with other military program offices, to work jointly to develop, test and field weapon systems. As part of these joint flight tests, decision makers use Weather Analysis and Survivability Prediction (WAASP) software to make go/no go weather launch commit decisions. The follow-on effort is based upon the previous weather related services that utilized this software on contract W50RAJ22C0001. The WAASP software, developed by Lockheed Martin for the Governement, enables decision makers to make a vehicle survivability assessment when testing in the Atlantic and Pacific Broad Ocean Areas where direct ground-based radar measurements are not available. Previous versions of WAASP estimated the potential impact of weather on different vehicles performance using ground-based radar data. Joint flight-testing support will require the ability to ingest classified trajectory data along with weather data sources such as Global Synthetic Weather Radar and Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites data to inform real-time decision making. Data collected and lessons learned will inform any WAASP software updates required between flight test events. Interested sources would need to demonstrate the technical capability, corporate knowledge, and experience in providing all technical expertise in order to sustain the WAASP System, originally developed by Lockheed Martin. The Army RCCTO believes Lockheed Martin Corporation is the only responsible source capable of providing this software within the required schedule and budget; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement demonstrating the ability to provide the requested services, which will be considered by the agency before the intended award date with complete performance anticipated to start 01 May 2024. Interested sources who submit data are responsible for appropriately marking information if it is proprietary in nature. No requests for capability briefings will be honored. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Interested vendors must respond to this notice on or before 1000 CST, 13 MARCH 2024 to the Contract Specialist, Sydney Horn, at sydney.m.horn.civ@army.mil. Interested parties should submit a capabilities statement with a maximum of ten (10) pages. Responses should include the following: -Recent (twenty-four months within the last three years) experience supporting hypersonic tests -Personnel qualifications related to weather forecast and prediction associated with missile flight test events in the Atlantic and Pacific -Demonstrated understanding of weather effects on hypersonic testing -Existing tools that predict weather using remote weather sources such as GOES that also factor in the associated impacts, if any, to the system under test -Cyber accreditation or approach to obtain accreditation for tools to run in a classified environment -Demonstrated recent (twenty four months within the last 3 years) experience with real-time forecasting during test conduct to support go / no go weather calls -The Vendor’s anticipated schedule, risk and assumptions to perform the support. -Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost","origin":"extract"},"notice_type":{"code":"r","label":"Sources Sought"},"schema_version":1,"solicitation_number":"W50RAJ24R0004","place_of_performance":{"country":{"code":"USA"}},"product_service_code":"R427"},{"dates":{"posted":"2024-04-24","response_deadline":{"raw":"2024-05-09T10:00:00-05:00","utc":"2024-05-09T15:00:00Z","date":"2024-05-09","time":"10:00:00","utc_offset_seconds":-18000}},"links":{"sam":"https://sam.gov/workspace/contract/opp/3d796b7e611e4ff8800fa11add6f8010/view"},"naics":{"codes":["541990"],"primary":"541990"},"title":"WAASP Follow-On","agency":{"office":{"code":"W50RAJ","name":"W6DV PEO M & S REDSTONE"},"subtier":{"code":"2100","name":"DEPT OF THE ARMY"},"department":{"code":"021","name":"DEPT OF DEFENSE"},"office_address":{"zip":"35898-0000","city":"REDSTONE ARSENAL","state":"AL","country":"USA"},"organization_type":"OFFICE"},"status":{"active":false,"archive_date":"2024-05-09","archive_type":"auto_custom"},"contacts":[{"name":"Sydney Horn","role":"primary","email":"sydney.m.horn.civ@army.mil"},{"name":"Hillary S.
