- Description
- In accordance with the Federal Aviation Administration Acquisition Management System (AMS) paragraph 3.2.2.4, Single Source Selection Procurement Process, the purpose of this announcement is to inform industry of the FAA's intent to contract with a selected firm using single source procedures. The FAA has a requirement to procure a Time and Frequency Processor. The current Coded Time Source (CTS) was installed in the late 1990's and is in need of a Technology Refresh. It currently provides service to all the Air Traffic Control (ATC) systems and many other critical, essential, and mission support systems in the en route Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCC) throughout the CONUS (Continental United States). This service includes older formats of the Inter-Range Instrumentation Group (IRIG) IRIG-B and IRIG-E time codes as well as a unique Octopus connection. The Octopus connection originates from a proprietary 86-362-3 card included with the TrueTime XL-DC Time and Frequency Receiver. Symmetricom (formally TrueTime) can provide the same "form, fit, and function" "drop-in" replacement with the Xli Time and Frequency Receiver. The Xli units include the required IRIG-B, IRIG-E, as well as the unique 86-362-3 Octopus cards. The new units provide a 5 year maintenance agreement which reduces, if not negates, the current maintenance contract costs. The NAICS Code for this procurement is 334519 "Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing." This is not a screening information request or request for proposal of any kind. A competitive solicitation will not be available for this procurement. Any/all questions or concerns should be directed to Ms. Karen Mercer, via e-mail at Karen.Mercer@FAA.Gov by not later than close of business, Tuesday, September 6, 2011.
