Request for Information - Systems to collect Airfield Geometrics

THE DEADLINE FOR RESPONDING TO THIS RFI HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO NOON EST 22 OCTOBER 2024.

This Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS)/Request for Information (RFI) is issued for informational purposes and market research only; it does not constitute a solicitation. The Government will not reimburse any company or individual for any expenses associated with preparing/submitting information in response to this posting. The information provided may be used by the Government in developing its acquisition strategy, statement of work/statement of objectives, and/or performance specifications. Interested parties are responsible for adequately marking proprietary or competition sensitive information contained within their response as instructed later in this posting.

The United States (US) Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC), Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance & Special Operations Forces (ISR & SOF) Directorate, Special Warfare (SW) Program Office (AFLCMC/WISN) is conducting market research to identify systems capable of collecting airfield geometric information. Systems of interest enable collection of airfield geometric data in support of Force Projection and air operations. Systems are needed to make precise measurements of surface gradients/slopes, elevations, and obstacles in and around operational areas to include landing zones, drop zones, helicopter landing zones, and forward air refueling points surveys. Additionally, the system(s) must provide accuracy through RTK/GNSS and be able to operate in a GPS-denied environment.

Solutions to this requirement may be traditional man-portable ground-based systems, unmanned ground systems or Small Unmanned Aeriel Systems, as long as the requirements for precise measurement are met.

See Attachment for specifications and additional information.
