1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
The Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity (MCTSSA), Marine Corps Systems
Command (MARCORSYSCOM) provides technical support for the integration and
interoperability assessment of C4I systems and is the Marine Corps primary focal point
for configuration management of Joint Interoperability Standards and Joint Certification
test and evaluation. MCTSSA performs mission analysis, assessment of the technology
base, concept exploration, basic research, demonstration of technology, engineering in
support of production, system engineering, support of operating forces, and integration of
C4ISR systems.
MCTSSA Test Certification Group (TCG) is responsible for providing support for the
integration, validation, and certification of C4I and other Tactical Data Systems (TDS).
The Joint Interoperability of Tactical Command and Control Systems (JINTACCS)
primary areas of responsibility are the performance of Interoperability Certification
Testing and analysis, and the development and maintenance of Tactical Data Exchange
Standards and Technical Interoperability Standards. Additionally, development and
implementation of Service, Joint and Combined operational procedures, and
interoperability support to the Marine Corps Network Design Facility for design,
implementation, and operation of interoperable Joint Tactical Information Distribution
System (JTIDS) networks is of primary concern.
1.2 Scope
This sample Statement of Work (SOW) defines the non-personal technical and
engineering support services required by MCTSSA for the fulfillment of the JINTACCS
Project’s responsibilities related to interoperability standards, certification testing, and
JTIDS network design. This is a level-of-effort task order.
