- Description
- This is a Presolicitation Notice of Intent to Sole Source. The Department of the Air Force, Space and Missile Systems Center, Remote Sensing Systems Directorate (SMC/RS) intends to execute a sole source contract with Northrop Grumman to acquire the Next Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared (Next Gen OPIR) Polar Orbit Space Vehicles 1&2. The anticipated contract will be predominantly Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF). This action will be executed via an Undefinitized Contract Action (UCA) for requirements analysis and risk reduction efforts; a subsequent contract modification for design/development, critical path flight hardware, and risk reduction efforts; and another contract modification for the manufacturing, assembly, integration, test and delivery of Space Vehicles 1&2. This action is made pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(3), as implemented by FAR 6.302-3(a)(2)(i). Based on market research, full and open competition need not be provided for the Next Gen OPIR Polar requirements, and those requirements must be awarded to Northrop Grumman in order to develop and maintain a second provider of strategically survivable/endurable spacecraft to achieve industrial mobilization. This Presolicitation Notice is for informational purposes only. It does not constitute a request for proposal.
