- Description
- The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst, NJ (NAWCADLKE) intends to award a fixed price contract to procure a six-component, virtual center-type, external, force and moment balance as part of a CIP purchase for the Naval Aerodynamic Testing Facility (NATF), on a sole source basis with Aerodynamic Test Equipment Ltd., of Heathfield, East Sussex, TN21 8QZ, UK. Aerodynamic Test Equipment Ltd. is the only manufacturer of a six-component, virtual center-type, external, force and moment balance able to meet the requirement of a maximum combined error of 0.03% full-scale deflection. This requirement is necessary to meet the rigorous demands placed on aerodynamic test measurements needed for rotorcraft store separation analysis. As per 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), only Aerodynamic Test Equipment Ltd. and no other balance manufacturers were found to satisfy agency requirements. NAWCADLKE intends to award this contract under the authority of 10 USC 2304 (C)(1), as implemented in FAR 6.302-1. Interested firms may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, the Government will consider all responses received to this notice. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the 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. No solicitation will be available for this procurement.
