Payment will be via Procurement Integrity Enterprise Environment (PIEE) (formerly known as Wide Area Workflow (WAWF)). This solicitation requires an active registration with the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to award, pursuant to applicable regulations and guidelines. Registration information can be found at www.sam.gov. For information on this acquisition contact Jennifer Vatousiou at jennifer.m.vatousiou.civ@us.navy.mil . The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) Shipboard Electronics Systems Evaluation Facility (SESEF) (Code 7033) has a requirement for evaluation and repair of one (1) UXG Signal Generator. This equipment is used for transmitting Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic signals of interest in support of various U.S. Navy interests for core warfighting readiness. Keysight Technologies holds the required accreditation and is the only vendor with the proprietary original equipment manufacturer (OEM) electronic parts, software, and firmware necessary to repair and calibrate the equipment listed in the requirements table above. If services were procured from a vendor other than Keysight Technologies, the Government would be required to evaluate and approve each unit received to ensure that the required calibration standards are met. Keysight does not release its proprietary software to anyone other than end users of the items. The equipment covered under this justification requires the software to update and adjust the equipment; therefore, no laboratory other than the OEM can meet the manufacturer�s warranted specifications for the equipment by model number. Based on the above, it is not reasonable to conclude the potential savings from competition can offset the duplicative cost and schedule/mission impact associated with purchasing a new brand name product. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the government to solicit this requirement on a sole source only basis.
