- Description
- PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The Product Manager for Ground Combat Tactical Trainers (PM GCTT) has a requirement to convert the three Abrams M1A2 SEP V2 Advanced Gunnery Training System (AGTS) training devices at Ft. Carson, Colorado from relocatable systems to mobile systems. The contractor will produce three new mobility systems (without crewstations) based on the existing designs for already-fielded systems and deliver them to the site. Once on-site, the existing crewstations will be removed from Ft. Carson's relocatable systems, installed into the new mobility systems, and tested for full functionality. The new mobility systems will support the requirement for moving the existing AGTS systems to a new location. ACQUISITION APPROACH: The Government anticipates executing a modification to the Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract W900KK-09-D-0314-0013 to Lockheed Martin Mission Systems and Training (LM MST) under the PEO STRI Omnibus Contract II (STOC II). This order will be issued on a sole source basis in accordance with FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(B), quote mark Only one awardee is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services ordered are unique or highly specialized. quote mark Only LM MST can successfully perform the effort because the prime contractor alone possesses the required system technical data and knowledge needed to integrate subsystems effectively to meet user performance criteria. Consequently, the proprietary design of AGTS as described herein is unique to LM MST. Since upgrades and improvements will use the existing AGTS as a basis for the upgraded components, knowledge of the existing system is imperative in order to ensure a smooth transition between the current AGTS and the improved AGTS configuration. ESTIMATED ACQUISITION DOLLAR VALUE: Approximately $1.2M PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE/DELIVERY: Production, delivery, installation, and testing of the new mobility systems will be due one year after contract award. RESPONSES REQUESTED: Contractors who believe they have the ability to meet the requirement to provide mobility systems for the existing relocatable Abrams M1A2 SEP V2 AGTS training devices at Ft. Carson, Colorado shall submit an affirmative, written response, not to exceed 10 pages, indicating their ability to meet the specific requirements outlined above. Responses should appear on company letterhead and include any applicable pricing data or information. All responses should include a point of contact, telephone number and an e-mail address. Additionally, respondents should indicate whether they are a large business, small business, small disadvantaged business, 8(a) concern, women-owned small business, HUBZone, service disabled veteran-owned small business, or qualify as socially or economically disadvantaged and whether they are U.S. or foreign owned. Responses shall be furnished electronically to the contact listed below, not later than 3:00 PM EDT, October 30th, 2014. DISCLAIMER: This notice does not constitute an Invitation for Bids (IFB) or a Request for Proposal (RFP) and is not a commitment by the U.S. Government to procure subject products. No funds are available to pay for preparation of responses to this notification. The Government will use any information received by the closing date of this notice to determine whether other sources are available and capable to satisfy this requirement.
