- Description

This effort is a follow-on of the structural analysis of the MQ-8C weapons sockets performed by BHTI. �� For this proposed contract action, the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 10 U.S.C.2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, �Only One Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.� BHTI was selected the sole source subcontractor of the MQ-8C airframe by Northrop Grumman Corporation. BHTI is unwilling to sell the data rights that would allow for competitive procurements required to complete the non-recurring engineering and prototype aft cabin doors.
