- Sources Sought Template (Intent to Purchase on Sole-Source Basis) FROM: 638 SCMG/408 SCMS TO: DLA Aviation Procurement Operations at Warner Robins (SPRWA1) LOCATION: Robins AFB, GA 31098-1813 FBO Post Title: Intent to sole-source purchase of 5865-01-185-1091EW, Crystal Video Receiver ( CVR) SUBJECT: Market research is being conducted to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for qualification and production of the AN/ALQ-184 Electronic Attack Pod's CVR, NSN 5865-01-185-1091EW, P/N: G254055-1V3. ITEM DESCRIPTION The CVR is a receiver which operates in the microwave region. The CVR includes an input matching network, a Radio Frequency detector, and a logarithmic video amplifier. The unit shall be designed utilizing hybrid microcircuit construction mounted on an integral ground plane. Impediment to Competition: The qualification requirements for the redesign of the CVR were successfully completed by Microphase Corporation (Cage 01341) in Sep 2015 and they became the only qualified source to produce the CVR. The internal technical drawings required to build these items are owned by Microphase. Because the Government does not own or have access to the internal technical drawings required to build this item, a redesign or reverse engineering effort would be required to award to a vendor other than Microphase Corporation. INTEREST The DLA/AWB Contracting Office intends to award a sole source contract to Microphase Corporation for the manufacture of the Crystal Video Receiver (CVR), in support of the AN/ALQ-184 Electronic Attack Pod. Other interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement no later than 19 Jan 2016 to Darin Crowley, at darin.crowley@us.af.mil or dla.dlr.proc@us.af.mil. The Government intends to procure these items using Other Than Full and Open Competition as prescribed by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
