A number of Wescam MX-10MS gimbal systems were purchased in support of a Naval Special Warfare (NSW) customer. Repairs can only be authorized after the Contractor performs a TTE and submits to the Government a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) quote for the required repairs for each LRU. Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division, located at Naval Support Activity, Crane, IN intends to issue a solicitation on a sole source basis to the Canadian Commercial Corporation, North Atlantic Treaty Organization Commercial and Government Entity Code 98247 (50 O�Conner Street, Suite 100, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A OS6, Canada). This effort will be conducted on a sole source basis in accordance with the statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. The basis for restricting competition is the lack of Technical Data Package, Intellectual Property, and duplicative cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, and the unacceptable delay necessitated are from developing any other source. The duplicative cost and delay necessitated are from developing specification, integration and regression testing, and operational test verification. The Government is seeking information from companies mitigating the sole source basis listed above. Responses should include availability, budgetary cost estimate, and lead time of the solution as well as whether a demonstration unit can be provided to expedite the Government decision making process. All interested parties are encouraged to submit company and product literature, a white paper no longer than five (5) pages, and/or other pertinent information such as description with performance parameters and a statement of current availability, summary of prior testing, test reports, a budgetary estimate of test articles, production units, production quantity breaks, mitigate the reason why the Government should not procure this effort on a sole source basis as stated above and/or identify other Government contracts with similar efforts for the Government�s considerations.
