- Description
- NAVAIR intends to place a Firm Fixed Price delivery order under Contract N00019-05-G-0026 on a sole source basis with The Boeing Company in support of the F/A-18 Program for Foreign Military Sales to Switzerland and Finland. NAVAIR previously procured Upgrade 25 for Switzerland and Mid Life Upgrade 2 for Finland from the Boeing Company. In support of these FMS upgrades, this delivery order will procure customized test equipment and procedures for developmental display items for both countries, along with 82 Intercommunication System Control Units with Finland unique configuration. The estimated delivery date is 30 April 2015. As the sole designer, developer, manufacturer and system integrator, The Boeing Company is the only firm possessing the extensive knowledge and technical data peculiar to all configurations of the F/A-18 aircraft and the weapons systems used by FMS countries. Additionally, as only The Boeing Company has the engineering, manufacturing, and unique logistics support experience and technical data pertinent to the systems design and operational characteristics of the F/A-18 aircraft, they are uniquely qualified to meet the Swiss and Finnish fleet operation commitments. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302-1: Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. No solicitation document exists. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. The Government does not intend to fund the development or qualification of other sources for fulfilling this requirement, as production of the supplies listed requires a substantial initial investment or an extended period of preparation for manufacture. However, all proposals received within thirty days after the publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
