- Description
- The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to negotiate and award a sole source contract with the United Kingdom Ministry of Defense (MOD), Whitehall, London, SW1A 2HB, for the procurement of one (1) E-3D aircraft, ZH104, aircraft using FAR Part 12 procedures as authorized for procurements with nontraditional defense Contractors in accordance with DFARS 212.102(a)(iii) . A sole source acquisition will be procured under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, �Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.� �The E-6B is integral to U.S. nuclear command, control, and communications (C3) system, and provides assured capability for U.S. nuclear force execution. Currently, the U.S. Navy conducts all initial and recurring E-6B pilot training flight in E-6B mission aircraft. These training flights expose mission aircraft to significant unnecessary wear-and-tear and negatively impact E-6B readiness and availability. Moreover, lack of a dedicated training aircraft increases the time required to train qualified aircrews needed to execute the E-6B mission. ��Procurement of a comparable trainer aircraft from any source other than the UK MOD is not possible at this time.� No other source of a 707-320 aircraft with the appropriate characteristics has been found. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties, however, may identify their interest and capability by responding to this requirement. The Government will consider all capability information received prior to the closing date of this synopsis. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. No phone inquiries will be entertained. Responses shall be made in writing by email to the attention of Ms. Shanon Sheffield� (Shanon.Sheffield@navy.mil). Unless otherwise stated herein, no additional written information is available. Request for the same will be disregarded.
