- NA Sole Source Commercial Contract Modification. This is a notice of United States Army Yuma Proving Grounds (YPG) intent to negotiate a contract modification on a sole source basis with Ohio State University (OSU) Center for Automotive Research Intelligent Transportation (CAR-IT) under existing contract number DATM07-01-P-1139. The contract modification will be to add a report of an industry and government wide survey to identify methods of doing terrain and test course severity measurement, evaluate those methods, recommend potential future concepts for use in extreme conditions, and present briefings on the results. This original research project (Determination of Duty Cycles for Heavy Vehicles) was based on joint ownership between YPG, U.S. Army TACOM Nat ional Automotive Center (NAC), and Oshkosh Truck, Inc. Data that will be used in the delivery of the reports to be provided under this contract modification, has been developed under the existing contract since March 2001. The specific tasks described her ein are interrelated so there is need for parallel activity in all areas under pre-established relationships. OSU is the only source that can provide such data as they are the original author of data developed to date and provide this report and briefings no later than 29 February 2004. It is essential for continuity that the reports to be delivered under this modification be based on the same data developed under contract DATM07-01-P-1139. The original contract action was an award considered commercial in nature and the resultant contract modification will be based on acquisition of commercial items under FAR Part 12. The pending contract modification will be made based solely on technical responses to this synopsis request. If your company can provide the scope addressed above, and demonstrate rights to the existing data, facsimile or email your proposal, describing your capabilities to provide the scope herein, to Julie Silva at (928) 328-6849. USAYPG intends to execute this contact modification no earlie r than the 10th day after publication of this notice. Therefore, only proposals received before the close of business by 22 September 2003 shall be considered. The North American Industry Classification System code for this action is 541990 and the small business standard of $6 million applies. You may address any questions to Julie Silva by facsimile at (928) 328-6849 or email Julie.Silva@yuma.army.mil. Please include your mailing address, point of contact, phone number, facsimile number, e-mail address and business size within your correspondence.
