- Description
- NASA/DFRC has a requirement for 4 G2 Land Mobile hard cases and 2 G2 Land Mobile soft cases. These radios are essentially portable telephones that use direct connection to satellite, thus are independent of existing local telephone infrastructure. These phones will work outside the world when all existing telephone infrastructure has been destroyed or is otherwise unavailable. This system is a primary emergency communication link intended for emergency use at Dryden following a major event. NASA/DFRC intends to purchase the items from Skybase Communications. This product and vendor was selected during a meeting of the NASA Disaster Preparedness Coordinators as a method of achieving NASA wide emergency communication inoperability. This was decided because of the performance of the equipment and the dependability in the wake of a disaster. This is a standard for all NASA centers and could result in compatibility issues if purchased elsewhere. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12 and 13. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on September 25, 2007. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. ?A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are NOT acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed.
