- Description
- This is an intent to Sole Source synopsis published for informational purposes only. The United States Air Force Test Center/Directorate of Contracting (AFTC/PZZE), Edwards AFB, CA intends to issue a sole source contract to The Boeing Company, for the renewal of software licenses for the Multi-Mode Radar Simulator (MMRS). The contract will be executed by means of other than full and open competition, due to the need to maintain commonality, interoperability and compatibility with the current systems located at Edwards AFB already used by the JSE team. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: This maintenance for this software is currently only offered by The Boeing Company and therefore they are the only vendor with the capability to provide the necessary software maintenance and ; therefore awarding to Boeing is in the best interest of the Government. It is in the best interest of the government to establish a common hardware/firmware/software configuration across the joint-service enterprise. Commonality and interoperability allows the AF to achieve higher efficiency by establishing a joint-service system engineering baseline, and minimize costly validation and verification testing across the three operating locations. It will be a substantial duplication of cost to change systems already in use by the Joint Simulation Environment. Contractors must be registered in System for Award (SAM) at www.sam.gov Please submit all questions, comments and feedback regarding this this training via e-mail to the following Points of Contact: Mr. Adam Confer.
