Description

N6833526Q1091- DEFECT MEASUREMENT VIDEO BORESCOPE 6MM PSC: 6650 NAICS: 334519 The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Lakehurst, intends to solicit, negotiate and make an award on a sole-source basis with Waygate Technologies USA, LP, Cage Code 052B7 for a Fixed-Price contract. This procurement is for the production and delivery of the following DEFECT MEASUREMENT VIDEO BORESCOPE 6MM, PN: XLGOB6120M-N, NIIN:015838302 in support of the C-130 Kinston Depot Site Stand Up. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole-source basis under the statutory authority of (FAR) 12.102(a), which states that states decisions to restrict competition for acquisitions valued at or below the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), document the decision that only one source is available and the basis for the decision. The intended source is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the required equipment. The OEM has stated that it is the sole manufacturer and distributor for this product line and owns all proprietary rights to the drawings, design, and manufacturing data. These data rights are not owned by the Government and cannot be purchased. Procuring an alternative product would result in unacceptable schedule delays that would negatively impact fleet readiness and effectiveness. Any alternate borescope that has not already been validated and verified for compatible use on the C-130 airframe would require extensive test and evaluation, a new validation certification, and significant engineering efforts. New operation training, Supply and Provisioning Support, Aircraft maintenance publications, Support Equipment operation and repair manuals will need to be updated/created to logistically support a new Borescope set. This equipment is critical for performing required maintenance on C-130 aircraft. A delay in acquiring this capability could result in aircraft being grounded, directly impacting mission readiness. Therefore, the OEM is the only source capable of providing the required equipment within the required timeframe without causing unacceptable delays and harm to the C-130 program. A solicitation will NOT be posted following the close of this synopsis, unless alternate offerors are identified. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. However, all responses received prior to the response date of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received as a result of the notice of intent will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. THIS SYNOPSIS IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS, AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY. All questions and submissions in reference to this notice will be sent to the Point of Contact for this requirement, Duane Hines, Phone: (240) 577-9089, E-mail: duane.m.hines.civ@us.navy.mil.
