- Description
- It is the intent of the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to issue a sole source solicitation to Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems (Raytheon), 225 Presidential Way, Woburn, MA, 01801-1060, to develop follow-on requirements for its X-Band Radars. These radars include the Army Navy Transportable Radar Surveillance (AN/TPY-2), Sea-Based X-Band Radar (SBX), and the Ground Based Radar Prototype (GBR-P). The requirements include X-Bands Software and Hardware Development, limited Modeling and Simulation (M&S) maintenance, Engineering Services, Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) Flight and Ground Test Planning, Execution and Analysis across all the X-Band Radars. MDA anticipates acquiring this acquisition through a developmental Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract through 31 October 2017. The proposed contract modification will be executed on a sole source basis to Raytheon IDS pursuant to the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii), as the resulting contract modification is for highly specialized supplies and services where it is likely that award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of costs to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition or unacceptable delays in fulfilling the Agency's requirements. Raytheon has been the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (BMDO) for more than 20 years. A contract was awarded to Raytheon in September 1992, as a result of a full and open competition for the Strategic and Theater Demonstration/Validation of a Ground-Based Radar. In FY2000, Raytheon was awarded a subcontract under Lockheed Martin contract DASG60-00-C-0072 for the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) X-Band Radar (AN/TPY-2). In April 2003, Raytheon was awarded a prime contract (HQ0006-03-C-0047) for the production and further development of the AN/TPY-2 radar. Under contracts HQ0006-01-C-0001 and follow-on contract HQ0147-09-C-0008 for the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) System, Raytheon was awarded subcontracts by the prime (Boeing) for the design and development of the X-Band Radar on the SBX Vessel. Under contract HQ0147-08-D-0001, Raytheon previously provided test support for the GBR-P Radar. Under the current contract (HQ0147-12-D-0005) Raytheon is the prime contractor for the scope of work required. As the product developer of the MDA X-Band radars since 1992, Raytheon has unique technical expertise to meet the aforementioned agency requirements. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities may contact the Raytheon Contract Manager, Ms. Jill Asimakopoulos, at 339-645-1347. Point of contact for the MDA is Ms. Marie Agrinzoni, Procuring Contracting Officer, at 256-450-4829. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services that the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. All responsible sources may submit, within 15 days after publication of this notice, a capability statement, proposal, or quotation that shall be considered by MDA. A determination not to compete this proposed contract, 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.
