The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to negotiate and award a Cost-Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) order against Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-20-G-0007, to Raytheon Missiles and Defense (RMD), 1151 East Herman’s Road, Tucson, AZ 85734-1337, to develop an update to the Munitions Application Program (MAP), in LINUX operating language, to support the requirements of the United States Navy’s (USN) newly developed Standardized Tester of Reprogrammable Munitions (STORM) asset. The STORM is owned and used by multiple USN bases as a built in tester and reprogramming equipment for 13 different types of munitions in the USN and United States Marine Corps (USMC) inventory. The STORM requires a MAP for each weapon system. The MAP allows the STORM to “talk” to the munition to check for faults and to push new software. The AIM-9X will utilize the STORM system in conjunction with MAP software in order to provide fleet/field-level capability to run BITs and reprogram missiles. The USN plans to update the existing CMBRE+ support equipment with a STORM, which utilizes a Linux operating system, rather than the current Windows based system, along with other updated features to make the equipment more secure and useable.

An eighteen month period of performance is expected.

NAVAIR intends to award this procurement sole source to Raytheon Missiles and Defense based on the authority provided in FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
