- Description
- The Naval Air Systems Command, PMA 257 intends to award a Sole-Source delivery order under Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-12-G-0002, to Rolls Royce, PLC, Bristol, England, for a Component Improvement Program (CIP) for the AV-8B F-402 Pegasus propulsion system pursuant to the authority provided in FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements." The F402 Pegasus Propulsion System is used in the USMC AV-8B Aircraft as well as in British, Spanish and Italian AV-8B variants. The CIP will apply to all of the above mentioned AV-8B variants. Rolls Royce is the original designer, developer and manufacturer of the F402 (AV-8B) series engine and is the only source with the requisite knowledge, experience and technical expertise to continue to provide the required supplies and services. Rolls Royce is the only source with the technical data, facilities and capabilities required to provide the associated system and sustainment support for the F402 (AV-8B) series engine requirements. Rolls-Royce maintains configuration control over the F402 engine and will not provide unlimited rights to the Government. No other manufacturer could design, develop and properly integrate F402 engine upgrades to meet the contract delivery schedules required to resolve issues in the fleet with the current configuration. Rolls Royce was selected as the prime contractor for the original engine development resulting from full and open competition. Under the proposed contract, Rolls Royce shall provide engineering and support services to maintain the system's effectiveness and optimize the affordable readiness of the AV-8B F-402 propulsion system. Specifically, the contractor shall perform engineering projects and provide design solutions to provide for continuing improvements in Safety, Readiness, Reliability, Maintainability, Sustainment, and correction of service related non-specification deficiencies. The period of performance shall be 01 January 2013 through 31 December 2013. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency.
