Description

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS AND NO COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION WILL BE ISSUED. The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Patuxent River, MD intends to negotiate and award a sole-source, Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract to Mnemonics, Inc. to procure sixty-five (65) Radio Frequency Blanking Units (RFBUs) production units and logistics support documentation. EA-18G, F/A-18E, and F/A-18F currently have Enhanced Interference Blanking Units (EIBU) that are obsolete and need to be replaced. The RFBU procured will be a form, fit, function replacement of the EIBU that addresses obsolescence with options to provide growth. The anticipated Period of Performance (POP) for this effort is eighteen (18) months from the date of award. This procurement is being pursued on a sole-source basis under the statutory authority USC 2304(C)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302 �Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements.� As the contractor for the RFBU, Mnemonics has the familiarity with the design, manufacturing knowledge and experience, configuration expertise, integration of RFBUs experience, and the technical data that is critical to support the requirement for additional RFBUs and logistic support documentation. Therefore, Mnemonics is the only vendor that can provide these supplies and services within the required timeframe. This synopsis is for informational purposes only and is not a request for competitive proposals. Responsible sources may submit a Statement of Capability and Qualifications to the Contract Specialist listed demonstrating their ability to perform the Government's requirement and shall provide proof of approved facility and personnel clearances necessary to meet the delivery schedule required within 15 days from the publication date of this announcement. The Government will utilize the capability statements received solely to confirm the sole source acquisition approach or to reconsider a competitive procurement. A determination not to compete this requirement is solely within the discretion of the United States Government. There is no commitment by NAVAIR to issue a solicitation, make an award or awards, or be responsible for any money expended by interested parties before award of a contract for the effort described above. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit or award a contract.
