- Description
- The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), Naval Special Warfare (NSW) has a requirement for Performance Design Lightning, Sabre, and Spectre, Optimum and Reserve Parachute Canopies and all parachute systems are outfitted with Performance Design reserves. The colors of the canopies are yellow with navy blue "SEAL", "SWCC", "EOD", "DIVER", "NAVY" or other similar customizable artwork stitched into the canopy. These parachutes have been tested by military freefall experts and are Authorized for Navy Use (ANU) and approved for the Navy Parachute Team and other related entities. The nature of this specific requirement requires standardization of the parachutes with custom artwork to ensure capability in performance and appearance. Given this, using a third party reseller provides an unacceptable safety risk due to past history of color and product variances from resellers which has deemed the delivered products as unusable. Given this, Performance Designs is the only company capable of providing the level of standardization required to support this specific requirement and this sole source acquisition is being conducted under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 1901, as implemented by FAR 13.501(a) Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The Justification and Approval will be posted under this synopsis. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this effort is 314999, and the small business size standard is 500 employees. The Government intends to award a five-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contract, issuing Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Delivery Orders to Performance Designs (CAGE 0VBY7). The estimated minimum contract value is $5,000 and the estimated maximum contract value is $700,000. Note that the Government is in the process of establishing a separate Brand Name Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity type contract for Non-Tactical Parachutes to increase competition in circumstances that do not require the standardized custom artwork which is the basis for this sole source action. Reference H92240-18-T-0060. This synopsis shall not be construed as a RFP or an obligation on the part of the Government. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. All submittals must be submitted via e-mail in order to be considered.
