- Description
- The Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) Orlando intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, a contract for the procurement of one Transportable Flight Proficiency Simulator (TFPS) Shelter from Oshkosh Specialty Vehicles a division of Pierce Manufacturing Inc. (OSV) for inclusion in the CH-47F TFPS number 23 under authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. CH-47F TFPS 23 is being constructed at Naval Air Warfare Systems Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Simulation Division. The CH-47F is a transportable simulator and all components are required to be ruggedized to survive movement of the simulator. The TFPS CH-47F shelter is one such component. Currently, the TFPS CH-47F shelter is the only commercially available shelter that will meet the Government requirements. The TFPS CH-47F shelter is solely manufactured and distributed by OSV, a division of Pierce Manufacturing Inc. The TFPS Ch-47 Shelter provides a climate controlled shelter for integration of the CH-47F CrewView VDS trainer from Flight Safety International. The TFPS CH-47F Shelter is designed to be transported via land, air and sea. The TFPS CH-47F shelter has been certified by the United States Air Force to fly on a C-5 aircraft. The shelter provides 317-3/4 W x 317-3/4 L x 196 H of interior space. In addition, the shelter has an Environmental Control System (ECS) for extreme conditions for both equipment and the shelter environment (separately controlled). The shelter also contains a fire detection system, lighting protection system and a 40KVA uninterruptable power supple FAR Part 12.101(b) states that agencies shall acquire commercial items or non-developmental items when they are available to meet the needs of the agency. Since OSV s TFPS CH-47F shelter is the only commercial item that is compatible with the CH-47F CrewView VDS from Flight Safety International (FSI) and the Government has neither the intellectual property rights nor data necessary to provide to another contractor to develop a compatible shelter, this acquisition will be sole source. This synopsis is not a request for competitive proposals. It is a notice that outlines the Government s intent to contract on a sole source basis with Flight Safety International. Interested sources desiring to contest this synopsis may do so by asserting its supportable rationale via email to Brandon Haas, Brandon.Haas@navy.mil in an electronic format that is compatible with Word 2010, no later than 18 January 2016 at 1300 EST. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. All information shall be furnished at no cost or obligation to the Government. No solicitation document is available. If no written contest to this synopsis is received, a Justification and Approval (J and A) in accordance with FAR Part 6.303 based on the rationale provided above will be initiated. If conducted as sole source procurement with OshKosh Specialty Vehicles, no further synopsis will be provided.
