- Description
- This is a Synopsis for Sole-Source RFQ W52P1J-17-R-PFSA. This notice is issued solely for informational purposes to inform industry of an intended sole-source action. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The Army Contracting Command- Rock Island (ACC-RI), 3055 Rodman Ave, Rock Island, Il 61299-8000, has a requirement for Protective Fabric Shelter (PFS), Direct Connections System (DCS) & Screen Kits which need to be built to specifications and are used for the Chemical Biological Protective Shelter (CBPS) program. This is strictly a Sole-Source Synopsis for the PFS, DCS & Screen Kits and no full and open Request for Quote (RFQ) exists. The resulting sole-source solicitation document will be made available through FedBizOpps. The proposed contract action is for supplies for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source, Saint Gobain Performance Plastics (St. Gobain), 701 Daniel Webster Highway, Merrimack, NH, 03054, under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. St. Gobain retains proprietary information associated with, and has been the only manufacturer of the PFS Kit for the M8E1 CBPS system. In order to maintain compatibility across the produced systems and to avoid the expected additional time and costs associated with new supply chains, logistics support packages, and additional First Article Component Testing, the Government must award to St. Gobain. The Government needs to have a standardized configuration for this system, as well as to maintain interchangeability of components across all of the CBPS systems. The specifications for these kits are specific to the CBPS program and were developed as such. Information on how to obtain a copy of the Technical Data Package for this requirement will be listed in the sole-source solicitation document. Inspection and Acceptance is to be at destination with delivery F.O.B. Destination: Pine Bluff Arsenal, Pine Bluff, AR 71602-9500. The anticipated award date is August 2018 or prior. The anticipated award will be an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract consisting of five (5) one (1)-year ordering periods. The resulting award will contain one Line Item Number that will account for one whole Kit. The anticipated maximum contract quantity is for one-hundred eleven (111) each kits across all five ordering periods, with delivery at 3-5 kits per month. The PFS Kit is the shelter portion of the CBPS design. The kit mounts on the rear of the vehicle and deploys off the rear of the vehicle. The shelter allows treatment of the wounded in an uncontaminated environment. One PFS Kit sub-assembly is needed to produce one CPBS unit, thus to support the requirement of 111 CBPS units, the Government requires a maximum quantity of 111 PFS Kits. Responders are solely responsible for all expenses associated with responding to this synopsis. ACC-RI will not pay for information received in response to this synopsis. Responses to the synopsis submittals will not be returned. All changes to the solicitation synopsis that occur prior to the closing date will be posted to FedBizOpps. It is the responsibility of interested vendors to monitor FedBizOpps for amendments that may be issued to this synopsis. Points of contact for this synopsis: Mr. Todd Kowalke at todd.w.kowalke.civ@mail.mil and Mr. Val B. Hansen at val.b.hansen.civ@mail.mil.
