69 -- INDUSTRY DAY

The United States Marine Corps, Marine Corps Systems Command, (MARCORSYSCOM) has a requirement to upgrade an Unknown Distance Range. The Commanding Officer of the Marine Corps Recruit Depot would like to invite the civilian industry to show their product line at Parris Island South Carolina on 26 August 2002. Parris Island is looking to upgrade an unknown distance range and possibly add moving target capability. The current system is adequate in allowing for proper training, however, there is a lapse in the proper tracking of individuals as they move through the course of fire. Work to upgrade this range with hard-wired, computer tracking and increased shooter through-put is scheduled to begin in FY-03. The Government intends to solicit through RFP from industry based on satisfactory demonstration at the industry day being held at Parris Island, SC. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to participate in the Industry Day on 26 August 2002. Information received shall be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. Although Parris Island is hosting this event all cost incurred will be at the expense of the participating vendor. There will also be space available in case of inclement weather and if a live fire demonstration is requested please specify the requirements in your response; (i.e. number of rounds distance and power requirements etc). Response via email to this notice is required no later than 22 August 2002 to [email protected] Contract specialist and [email protected] Project officer. This response shall include any special needs and or concerns.
