- N00164-17-S-NB79 - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)/SOURCES SOUGHT - PROCUREMENT OF TECHNICAL DATA PACKAGE (TDP), TEST EQUIPMENT, SPARE SRAS, LICENSING, TEST ORDERS, TRAINING, AND ENGINEERING SERVICES, TO SUPPORT REPAIR OF WESCAM GIMBAL AT TSS ORGANIC DEPOT - FSC 5855 - NAICS 334511 Issue Date: 18 APR 2017 - Closing Date: 19 MAY 2017 - 4:00 PM EDT The Government is issuing this RFI/sources sought announcement as part of market research for procurement of the Technical Data, Test Equipment, Spare SRAS and Consumables, Licensing, Tech Orders, Training, and Engineering services, to support repair of WescamTM MX-20 variant gimbal at TSS Organic Depot. Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division located at Naval Support Activity, Crane, IN is currently contemplating and intends to award a sole source contract to the Canadian Commercial Corporation (CCC), North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Code 98247 (50 O'Conner Street, Suite 100, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A OS6, Canada), on behalf of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) L-3 Communication WescamTM, CAGE 3AC24 (649 North Service Road, Burlington, Ontario, L7P 5B9, Canada). This effort may 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 delays in fulfilling the agency requirement through 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. The Government is seeking companies with the capabilities to provide Technical Data, Test Equipment, Spare SRAS and Consumables, Licensing, Tech Orders, Training, and Engineering services, to support repair of WescamTM gimbal at TSS Organic Depot. 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 pages, and/or other pertinent information, such as a 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) consideration. Responses to the Market Survey shall include the following: Submitter's Name Street Address, City, State, Zip Code Business Size Point of Contact (POC) POC Telephone Announcement Number: N00164-17-S-NB79 Responses received may submit corporate expertise information if you would like to be considered a possible interested source. Please include the purpose/explanation of the response to the Market Survey, i.e. to better understand the Government requirements; to potentially become a viable option for future requirement; to take exception to the anticipated sole source as your company currently meets all of the Government requirements. The Government may contact RFI respondents to get clarification on the information submitted. Contractors must be properly registered in the Government System for Award Management database (SAM). Contractors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation of requirements by calling 1-866-606-8220, or via the internet at www.sam.gov. At the current time, NO FUNDING IS AVAILABLE for contractual efforts. This RFI/sources sought does not constitute an Invitation for Bids (IFB), a Request for Quote (RFQ), or a Request for Proposal (RFP) and it should not be construed as a commitment of any kind by the government to issue a formal solicitation or ultimately award a contract. The US Government is in no way liable to pay for or reimburse any companies or entities that respond to this announcement. Any costs incurred by interested companies in response to this announcement will NOT be reimbursed. Market Survey information may be submitted to the Point of Contact any time prior to the expiration of this announcement. The Point of Contact for this effort is Ms. Rebecca Lingenfelter, rebecca.lingenfelter@navy.mil or 812-854-5726.
