- Description
- NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) intends to negotiate a sole source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements, with The Boeing Company, 5301 Bolsa Ave., Huntington Beach, CA 92647 to deliver Pultruded Rod Stitched Efficient Unitized Structure (PRSEUS) panels and associated hardware in support of the planned testing of a large-scale test article representing the center portion of a Hybrid Wing Body (HWB) vehicle. This project represents 20 years of effort and a level of expertise that requires proprietary tooling equipment unique to Boeing Research and Technology (R&T) and manufacturing methodologies used and developed under numerous LaRC contracts. NASA LaRC believes Boeing R&T is the only vendor capable of satisfying the requirement for this particular system, as it is the only contractor with experience in stitched structure that is capable of providing the design and manufacturing of the required PRSEUS panels. Because the PRSEUS panels are an integral part of the overall design concept of the large-scale test article, Boeing R&T is the only company capable of delivering the panels to meet project needs. The proposed action is for the procurement of PRSEUS panels which will be delivered 3 months from the receipt of contract award. All interested parties who believe they can provide the required PRSEUS panels and associated hardware should fully explain their capabilities and qualifications in writing within 15 days from the date of this announcement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive response; however, any responses received by the Government will be evaluated within 30 days of publication of this synopsis. A determination to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Interested vendors who may wish to seek subcontracting opportunities should contact the above named company directly. Submit response to the NASA Langley Research Center, Attn: Octavia L. Hicks (B-104), Research & Development Services Branch, 5 Langley Blvd., Bldg. 2101, M/S 12, Hampton, VA 23666 or email to octavia.l.hicks@nasa.gov. No telephonic or faxed requests will be honored.
