- Description
- PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE: The U.S. Army Contracting Command - New Jersey (ACC-NJ), Picatinny Arsenal, NJ 07806-5000, on behalf of Project Manager Soldier Lethality Crew Served Weapons (PM SL) anticipates issuing Request for Proposal (RFP) W15QKN-23-R-0017 for the manufacture of M2, M48 and M2A1 Machine Guns and support packages including spare barrels, enhanced barrels, spare parts (SP) packages, special tools and gauges (STG) packages, maintenance support items (MSI), and operator and field maintenance training for each weapon variant. This procurement will be a 100% Small Business Set-Aside. Production of the weapons will encompass, but not be limited to, complex machining of parts: .50 caliber barrel manufacturing processes including gun drilling and rifling; and protective finishes including manganese phosphate and chrome lining for gun barrels. Potential offerors will be required to maintain a higher-level quality system, such as ISO 9001 or an equivalent. Proof firing and acceptance test firing of the guns is required. Offeror(s) will be required to have range facilities available and be able to receive and properly secure machine guns and ammunition provided by the Government to support test requirements. Offeror(s) must have adequate production facilities as well as storage and proper security. Storage and security requirements are in accordance with DOD 5100.76-M, and the facility must be capable of passing a Defense Security System (DSS) Survey. A Technical Data Package (TDP) will be provided upon request after the solicitation has been released and will be marked with a ""Distribution D"" restrictive marking; therefore, the International Trafficking in Arms restrictions will apply, which limits distribution to Department of Defense and U.S. DoD contractors. The U.S. Government has acquired the rights to use the TDP for competitive procurements under a negotiated Special License Agreement (SLA). Therefore, this TDP is restricted to the terms of the SLA, which prohibits release of the TDP outside the United States. This TDP contains technical data whose export is restricted by the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22, U.S.C., Sec 2751, et seq.) or Export Administration Act of 1979 (Title 50, U.S.C., App 2401, et seq.) as amended. Violations of these export laws are subject to severe criminal penalties. These export laws also apply to distribution of the TDP to all subcontractors at every level. FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY: If/when a solicitation is released, to obtain copies of the Technical Data Package (TDP) marked Distribution D, Offerors will be required to e-mail the following documents to the Point of Contact listed below: Completed and signed AMSTA-AR- Form 1350 Technical Data Request Questionnaire; Non-Disclosure and Non Use Agreement (NDA), to be executed by an authorized representative of the respondent's firm; and Signed and approved DD Form 2345 Military Critical Technical Data Agreement. A copy of the company's State/Provincial Business License, Incorporation Certificate, State Tax Identification Form, or other documentation which verifies the legitimacy of the company must also accompany the DD Form 2345. Copies of the forms will be included as attachments to this synopsis for planning purposes only and should not be submitted in response to this PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE. After the solicitation is released, and the required documents have been received and verified, the ACC-NJ will release the proprietary TDP by electronic upload to Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment Solicitation Module (PIEE) at (http://piee.eb.mil). At the conclusion of the RFP process and upon notification from the U.S. Government (USG) Procuring Contracting Office (PCO), all respondent(s) in receipt of data covered under the NDA, except for an offeror that may be awarded a contract under the RFP, will be required to complete the supplied Certificate of Destruction notifying the USG that all licensed data received in response to the solicitation have been destroyed at the prime contract level and all subcontractors and vendor levels. This requirement will also apply to interested parties and their subcontractor and vendor tiers that did not submit a proposal. If an Offeror is awarded a contract under the final RFP, they will be required to complete the supplied Certificate of Destruction notifying the USG that all licensed data received in response to the solicitation have been destroyed at the completion or termination of the awarded contract. This PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal Request for Proposal (RFP). Following the release of an official solicitation, responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which will be considered by the Government. This PRE-SOLICITATION SYNOPSIS NOTICE is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. This is not a solicitation and does not obligate the Government to issue a solicitation, nor will the Government be liable for any costs involved in submission of information in response to this notice. Release of an official solicitation is anticipated to occur on or August 2023. Interested parties are encouraged to monitor Sam.gov for the release of the solicitation. The points of contact for this action are Michael Grace, Contract Specialist, Email: michael.f.grace4.civ@army.mil, and Jacalyn Dyda, Contracting Officer, Email: jacalyn.b.dyda.civ@army.mil. NO TELEPHONE INQUIRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED.
