- Description
- In accordance with the Federal Aviation Administration Acquisition Management System (FAA AMS) Paragraph 3.2.2.4 (Single-Source Selection), the FAA proposes to extend the FAA Interim Voice Switch Replacement (IVSR) contract, DTFAWA-05-C-00007, with Frequentis USA, Columbia, Maryland. The proposed contract extension will be six months for the period of May 30, 2012 through November 29, 2012. This single-source extension is estimated to have a value of $1.78 million, $1.0 million for hardware and $780K for administrative costs, (e.g., program management, documentation updates, training conduct, non-recurring engineering support, contractor depot logistics support). Awarding a contract extension to the incumbent will enable the FAA to bridge the gap between the end (May 29, 2012) of the current contract and the award of a new competitive contract (October 2012) and to continue procuring and installing systems in new air traffic control towers (ATCT); replacing voice switches that have reached the end of their useful service life; and, providing contractor maintenance support for systems already installed. The rationale to extend IVSR is based upon the need for standardization, and Frequentis USA being the only source available to satisfy the interim requirements in the required time frame. The FAA has determined that a single-source extension to the existing IVSR contract provides the best value and most timely response to the FAA's existing Terminal Voice Switch Replacement (TVSR) requirements. Questions concerning this announcement can be submitted in writing to Whitney Coleman-Clark, AJA-472, E-Mail: whitney.coleman-clark@faa.gov. Questions must be submitted by May 8, 2012 to be considered.
