- Description
- Synopsis Solicitation: N00019-23-R-0145 Agency/Office: Naval Air Systems Command Location: NAVAIR HQ Title: F-35 Lightning II Joint Program Office Consulting Services Follow-on Effort � Synopsis Description(s): The F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO), Arlington, Virginia has concluded their market research and intends to solicit, negotiate, and award a sole source Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) contract under authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation, FAR 6.302-1 �Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies Or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements,� to a small business: Mid-Atlantic Technical and Executive Consulting (MATEC), Inc., CAGE: 7F6M0. The proposed North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 336411, with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. This contract is for consulting services to reduce program costs, specifically in the areas of proposal evaluation, cost analysis, price analysis, and negotiation support for multiple JPO contract negotiations. The period of performance for this effort is a one-year base period with two additional option periods for a total potential of three years of support. Based on responses received from the Sources Sought Notice, we determined that there was only one vendor able to meet the specifications for this requirement. The F-35 JPO has identified two (2) immediate capability requirements: Prior experience with major defense acquisition programs Prior experience with the �ProPricer� software � MATEC is the only source with the requisite knowledge, experience, and expertise of the F-35 JPO necessary to support the finalization of the Air Vehicle (AV) Lots 15-17 contract, Lot 18 and beyond contracts, Performance Based Logistics (PBL), Non-PBL, and Site-Activation/Hardware (SAHW) contracts. Opting for an alternative source would require significant time and resources to identify, develop, and qualify, which would ultimately negatively impact the operational capabilities of the USAF, USMC, and USN, as well as �F-35 Cooperative Program Partners and FMS customers. Therefore, awarding a sole-source contract to MATEC is essential for ensuring the continued success of the F-35 JPO. All responses received from small businesses, to include capability statements, within 15 days of the posting of this notice will be considered by the U.S. Government (USG). If any information provided is proprietary in nature, it should be appropriately marked as such by the submitting party. The USG �will not reimburse interested sources for any information provided. Please note that capability briefings will not be provided upon request. Ultimately the decision to compete or not compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the USG. Points of Contact are Kieran Farrell, Contract Specialist, at Kieran.Farrell@jsf.mil or Suraiya Afrina, Contract Specialist: Suraiya.Afrina@jsf.mil NAICS Code: 541611 This notice is not a commitment by the USG to issue a solicitation, award a contract , or be responsible for any cost incurred by interested parties prior to award of a contract for the effort described above. The data associated with the F-35 JPO is export controlled and is not available to foreign sources or representatives.
