Pole/Zero Acquisition, Inc. is the sole designer, developer and manufacturer of the AIU and COMM-Tray for use in the P-8A, and therefore is the only vendor capable of providing a radio and data link of the same form, fit, and function that is compatible with the existing antenna, airframe infrastructure and interface control document, and interface design document associated with P-8A requirements. Pole/Zero has the proprietary rights to the technical data and drawings and therefore, is the only known source with the requisite knowledge of the design, technical data, fabrication, performance and operational characteristics of the AIU and COMM-Tray qualified to perform these efforts. The Government does not possess the technical data and drawings to permit full and open competition. All responsible sources are encouraged to submit a proposal in writing that may be used by the Government in determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Responses must be received within 15 days of publication of this notice. Responses should reference N68335-17-R-0421. The Point of Contact is: Ms. Danielle DiLorenzo, phone (732) 323-7067, email: danielle.dilorenzo@navy.mil.
