- Description
- The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to InnerSpace Systems Corporation (ISC), 1711 Midway Court, Centralia, WA 98531, to acquire five (5) Ex28 saturation capable underwater breathing apparatus (UBA) systems. The Ex28 is a Mk28 that has been modified for saturation diving service. ISC is currently under contract (N61331-12-P-6502) to provide engineering services in support of Ex28 development. NSWCPCD and ISC are working jointly to develop the Ex28 for testing later this year. NSWC PCD is designated as the in-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) for the Mk28 and Ex28. The purchase is not suitable for full and open competition for the following reasons. Innerspace Systems Corporation (ISC) is the sole manufacturer of the Mk28 UBA that has already been extensively evaluated by the Navy and was class certified for Navy diving service. The purchased system builds off of the certified Mk28 system to produce a saturation cable UBA, or the Ex28. The Navy has invested resources in verifying and validating the control software used on both the Mk28 and Ex28 systems. The proposed contract action is for supplies for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. 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. Offerors wishing to provide responses/comments to this synopsis shall do so via email to Corey.rezner@navy.mil no later than the closing date of this synopsis. The closing date of this synopsis is 19 August 2013. The resultant contract will be a firm fixed price purchase order. The Department of Defense will no longer award contracts to contractors not registered in the System for Award Management Registration (SAM) database. Registration may be accomplished by accessing the SAM website at http://www.sam.gov/. Contract Specialist (buyer): Mr. Corey Rezner, Code CDC2, NSWC PCD, 110 Vernon Avenue, Panama City, Florida 32407, (850) 636-6153, FAX (850) 234-4197, e-mail: corey.rezner@navy.mil.
