- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Eastern Acquisition Division-Kansas City office intends to award, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Trenton Systems, Inc. for five (5) custom designed computer workstations for the NOAA Aircraft Operations Center (AOC). A Sources Sought notice was posted on the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) website on July 16, 2014 and closed on June 23, 2014. No responses were received. Justification for Sole Source The purpose of this acquisition is to obtain a custom designed computer workstation. In order to maintain software and hardware direct replacement swapping capabilities with existing systems currently in use by the AOC, the manufacturer Trenton Systems Inc. is considered the only source of supply due to the proprietary nature of the design for the custom designed workstations. Any attempt to reproduce this item from a source other than Trenton Systems Inc., would require that the Government re-qualify the part at considerable cost to the Government whose cost savings could not be recovered using open competition. If the AOC cannot procure the needed computer workstations, it will have a negative impact on the AOC’s ability to perform direct replacement of existing software and hardware units on mission critical NOAA aircraft.
