- Description
- The Commander, Fleet Readiness Center (COMFRC) hereby gives notice of their intent to award a Firm Fixed Price modification to extend the existing GSA order N00421-19-F-0106 awarded to the Boston Consulting Group Inc. (BCG), 4800 Hampden Lane, Suite 400, Bethesda, MD 20814 on a sole source basis. In accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 8.405-6(a) (C), only one source is capable of providing the highly specialized services required at the level of quality required. The Department of the Navy (DoN) seeks continuance of the aggressive Naval Aviation Readiness Recovery reform program, developed and already in implementation by BCG, to execute the enterprise Naval Sustainment Strategy (NSS) for supplying the Naval Aviation�s component repair and heavy maintenance requirements that leverages commercial maintenance best practices. The enterprise-level operational context has experienced major changes over the last decade due to changing fleet mix, technologies, and sustainment philosophies. Demonstrating significant and sustained improvements in component repair and heavy maintenance at FRCs will be critical to supporting fleet readiness targets, as well as developing a complete enterprise support network, inclusive of a new NSS that supports the organic sustainment base. Specifically, the continuation of consulting services to be procured will continue the training, transition, and oversight for the Navy Sustainment System, including the development of governance, coordination, and accountability mechanisms across the Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE), continuing the work accomplished with the F/A-18 and EA-18G platform, and establishing tools and modeling to prepare for expansion to other aviation platforms. COMFRC is required to continue to support Naval Aviation in sustaining readiness targets into mid FY2021.� BCG is the only contractor readily prepared with the experience, expertise and current situational awareness required to complete this work within the time frame required. It is this current work BCG is providing for the FRCs that continues to lay the groundwork for sustainment reform efforts. Any other contractor would have to substantially duplicate the already performed efforts by BCG to gain an understanding of the issues in naval supply and the FRCs. If this current requirement is not immediately procured from BCG, COMFRC will lose progress in improving capacity and production velocity at the FRCs, which will prevent the NAE from meeting the readiness targets outlined above.� Failure to meet readiness targets results in United States Department of Defense mission failure, which is unacceptable to the Government. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. However, all equally capable and responsible commercial sources may submit a capability statement, which, if received within five (5) calendar days after the date of the publication of this synopsis, will be considered. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive commercial procurement without impacting the requirement. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement based upon responses received as a result of this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The point of contact for this requirement is LCDR Brij Mohan, brij.mohan1@navy.mil.
