AMENDMENT OF SOLICITATION/MODIFICATION OF CONTRACT

The purpose of this effort is to support NST System Engineering, InterTEC System Engineering, and the design, development, integration and testing tasks for the delivery of products associated with the Test Environment Product Area of InterTEC. The Test Environment Product Area includes the Open Air Range (OAR), Synthetic Battlespace Environment (SBE) and Networked Systems Under Test (NSUT) product subsystems of InterTEC.

The Test Environment products, along with a netcentric test control center capability of InterTEC provides a capability to construct, control, instrument and analyze joint C4ISR test environments. This capability will be provided from a distributed network of test control tools, mobile instrumentation, reference implementation Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) systems, open-air ranges, distributed instrumentation, and synthetic battlespace environment simulations with nodes located throughout Department of Defense locations. These capabilities will support the interoperability
and network readiness elements of developmental tests, operational tests, and joint certification tests. In addition, the system engineering effort for the Netcentic Systems Test Focus Area is to support the Navy in its responsibility as the Executing Agent in development of new test technologies.

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the tasks for the systems engineering and software engineering for the Netcentric Systems Test Focus Area and the InterTEC Test Environment product development tasks including preparation of the prescribed documentation, required in the design, development, integration and testing of the InterTEC Computer Software Configuration Items (CSCIs) and Hardware Configuration Items (HWCI) as delineated in Section 3 of this SOW.
