Description

The Air to ground Munitions Systems Wing (A-GMSW), A-G DASG Fuzes Program Office, is contemplating issuing a Sole Source Award to Kaman Dayron in Orlando FL. This effort is to procure an additional 31,606 FMU-152A/B Joint Programmable Fuze (JPF) systems along with additional spare parts components and 180 fuze trainers over the years FY06 through FY11. The current contract awarded to Kaman-Dayron specifies maximum quantities allowable in priced production options. The current FMU-152A/B acquisition strategy is to buy-to-budget to catch up with JDAM total production quantities. This contract modification is meant to increase maximum allowable quantities under each of the remaining production options with the first additional quantities delivered with the production option starting in October 2006. The estimated cost of this additional procurement is approximately $65M. The FMU-152A/B JPF is a cockpit-selectable bomb fuze employed in MK-80 series warheads (both guided and unguided variations), and both the 2000lb and 5000lb series Penetrator warheads. The FMU-152A/B fuze system consists of the fuze, the FZU-55A/B fuze initiator, a closure ring, and power cable. Spares for the fuze system would consist of the FZU-55A/B initiator, power cable, closure ring, compatibility hardware for GBU-15/AGM-130 configuration, and a small variety of sub-tier components. In addition to the required spares, the government requires additional procurement of JPF trainers in the following configurations: 1. The FMU-152A(D-1)/B configuration consists of a non-explosive fuze with working electronics and the closure ring used for laboratory and pilot familiarization and proficiency training and 2. The FMU-152A(D-2)/B configuration consists of the FZU-55 initiator, power cable, closure ring, compatibility hardware for GBU-15/AGM-130 configuration, and shipping plug, and used for load crew standardization and weapon assembly familiarization training. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii). Interested parties must produce or procure for delivery qualified fuzes, spare parts, and trainers and may submit statements of capability (SOC) or capabilities package addressing the following: (1) Demonstrated technical knowledge of the Joint Programmable Fuze (FMU-152A/B) requirements for operational performance, interface requirements for JDAM and other guided munitions/general purpose bombs, interface requirements for required US and Allied aircraft, and system safety requirements; (2) Adequate production facilities and production capabilities to produce and assemble the fuze (FMU-152A/B) and closure ring as listed above, and produce or acquire associated sub-tier components; (3) Adequate production facilities and production capabilities to produce and assemble the fuze initiator (FZU-55A/B) and power cable, and produce or acquire associated sub-tier components; (4) Adequate production facilities and production capabilities to produce and assemble fuze trainers as listed above; (5) Ability to perform acceptance and other required tests of fuzes and fuze initiators in accordance with Contractor developed and Government approved plans; (6) Ability to deliver fuzes, fuze initiators, spares, and trainers on schedule. Responders to this synopsis will not be provided the results of the government evaluation of their qualifying package. Responses to this synopsis should be submitted for receipt by the Government within 45 days of the publication date and must state whether the potential source is a small business concern IAW FAR 52.219-1. The NAIC Code/Size Standards is 332995/500 employees. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL AND IS NOT TO BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT.
