Notice of Intent to Sole Source Self Defense Test Ship Engineering and Technical Support Services

Description

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD) hereby gives notice of intent to sole source to AdvantEdge Technologies Inc. (ATI) (Cage Code 3PQL7) for a follow-on requirement for Self Defense Test Ship (SDTS) engineering and technical support services. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 541330 - Engineering Services, with a size standard of $ 47.0 million. This is a follow-on requirement for the continued provision of highly specialized services for operation, maintenance and repair of the current SDTS platform (Ex Paul F Foster, EDD 964). The SDTS Program consists of both the SDTS and Test Ship Remote Control System (TSRCS). The TSRCS provides the remote capability for the SDTS to operate in an unmanned capacity at sea in support of high-risk live-fire Test and Evaluation (T&E) events. The SDTS primarily supports T&E initiatives related to Engineering and Combat Systems (CS), Ship Self Defense System (SSDS), and various weapons, control, and engineering systems as needed by the Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of the Navy (DoN). The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.103-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Awarding the follow-on SDTS support contract to any source other than ATI would introduce a transition period which would cause unacceptable mission delays to scheduled critical milestones and deployment timelines. The anticipated period of performance is three (3) years, inclusive of a base year and two (2) option years, covering the current SDTS platform’s end-of-life phase. All responsible sources may identify their interest and provide capability statements in response to this notice. Interested companies should submit, on company letterhead, a notice of interest including the name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address of one point of contact. Responses to this notice should not exceed 10 pages (8.5 x 11 inch) and 12-point font Times New Roman font. Submission shall be in Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat and shall be sent electronically to the contract specialist at melissa.a.hautman.civ@us.navy.mil and the contracting officer at gary.l.heagy.civ@us.navy.mil. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received within 15 days of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. DISCLAIMER: THIS SYNOPSIS IS FOR INFOMRATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL NOR DOES IT CONSITUTE 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 ANNOUNCMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS SYNOPSIS IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY.
