This is a commercial requirement for the purchase of one (1) Alta Data Card for 402nd
SWEG. This requirement will be awarded sole source to Alta Data Technologies (Cage:
4RK27).The program's current dated system is the Multi Fuction Display Unit (MFDU),
and the program is experiencing diminished manufacturing sources for repair. Repair
support is due to end by August 2024. The program has found a replacement for this
display which is the Replacement Multifunction Controls and Display (RMCD). This
data card is to go on the test stand for lab testing settings. An Alta Data Card is the only
data card that will work with the software that is already in use. In order to utilize a
different data card, it would require engineers to re-write the software in order to
communicate with the new hardware, which would require two engineers and would
take about 300 hours of work. The cost to utilize a different manufacturer's data card
would exceed $50,000.00.
Delivery is 30 days ARO.
