- Description
- The 48th Contracting Sqn, RAF Lakenheath, UK intends to award, on a sole source basis, subject to availability funding, a Purchase Order to Adaptive Eyecare Limited, UK. The procurement is for glasses which are an infinitely prescribable eye glass that utilizes two sheets of Mylar plastic, separated by a changeable chamber of silicon oil. The amount of silicon oil between the plastic sheets changes the refraction of the lens from +6 to -6 power. These glasses meet the needs of over 90% of all people that require correction. They also correct for both distance and near sighted deficiencies. The manufacturer of the Adaptive Eyeware product is the sole patent holder of this technology. These glasses were designed by Professor Josh Silver, and he is also the sole manufacturer of this product. There are no other known adaptable eye glasses on the market. The authority for this sole source procurement is FAR Part 6.302-1 Firms who believe they can provide the requirement are encouraged to identify themselves and give written notification to the Contracting Officer within 15 days from the publication date of this synopsis. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future, and will not be considered for this award. As per Note 22.
