This is a production contract for the Conventional Air Launched Cruise Missile (CALCM) / Air Launched Cruise Missile (ALCM) Test Instumentation Kit (CATIK); managed by the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center Missile Sustainment Division (AFNWC/NDM) at Tinker AFB Oklahoma.

The scope of this effort encompasses the procurement, assembly, testing, qualification, and delivery of CATIK shipsets, Line Replaceable Units (LRUs), Shop Replaceable Units (SRUs), and FlightTermination System (FTS) components, utilizing Government Furnished Property (GFP) tracked within CAV-AF.

CONTRACT TYPE, PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE AND SMALL BUSINESS SUBCONTRACTING 

The current acquisition strategy is to issue a definitive Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract for a base production lot if 15 each CATIKs, with contract options to purchase 15 each Flight Termination Batteries and 15 each Instrumentation Batteries. The Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) structure used for recurring production and engineering will be Firm Fixed Price. Delivery is expected to complete within 18 months after award.
