- Description
- Sole Source Justification - ASB Avionics This is the public notice for a small purchase commercial item acquisition over $25,000. The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Aircraft Operations Center (AOC), located at MacDill AFB, FL intends to issue a fixed price purchase order to ASB Avionics, LLC (ASBA), 1032 Sabvoich Street, Mojave, CA 93501-2021 for the fabrication/assembly/installation of a high frequency shunt antenna system for the P-3 Orion N43RF to support the Particle Measurement Systems Cloud Physics program. The proposed acquisition is for one shunt antenna system to match a previously fabricated and installed shunt antenna system previously purchased for another NOAA P-3 Orion aircraft. The acquisition must be issued as soon as possible to complete the fabrication and installation of the shunt antenna system in time for the peak of the 2014 hurricane season (Early September-Mid October). It is intended that a purchase order will be issued by March 1, 2014. The proposed acquisition is for items for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) of 1994 (Title VIII PL 103-355) as implemented by FAR 12.102 & 13.106-1(b). EAD-KC intends to issue a purchase order on a sole source basis to ASB Avionics based on the following reasons: 1) ASB Avionics has proprietary rights to the design of the shunt antenna system, and 2) the shunt antenna system must exactly match a previously installed shunt antenna system, and 3) any other manufactured item from another contractor would be time consuming, add expense for testing, and add unacceptable risk of a nonperforming item. Refer to attached sole source justification. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive responses. However, all responses received within 10 days after date of publication of this notice of intent will be considered by the Government. Responses can be faxed to Ron Anielak at (757) 664-3618 or sent via email to ronald.f.anielak@noaa.gov. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed acquisition 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. All responsible business sources may submit a response which shall be considered by the agency. Interested firms shall include, in writing, the company name, address, point of contact, telephone number, and business size; a statement regarding their capabilities and qualifications to provide the required item; and sufficient information that describes or demonstrates the firm's technical capability to provide the specified required item. Only affirmative responses to this notice will be evaluated to the extent necessary for the Government to determine whether it is feasible to conduct a competitive acquisition considering parts, cost of testing, standardization, consistency, and price. Submissions received in response to this notice shall be evaluated based on demonstrated technical ability to successfully provide the required item as stated herein. NOAA, EAD-KC requires that all contractors doing business with this office be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM). No purchase order can be made to a company not registered in SAM. For additional information and to register in SAM, please access the following web site: http://www.sam.gov. In order to register, all offerors must have a Dun & Bradstreet Number. A Dun & Bradstreet number may be acquired free of charge by contacting Dun & Bradstreet on-line at https://www.dnb.com/product/eupdate/requestOptions.html or by phone at (800) 333-0505.
