The Period of Performance (POP) for the CFFT II FMS Latvia requirement will be 14 months for the production and fielding of the CFFT II JCAS system. The effort will utilize Section 1206 funds from FY13 NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act), and includes production and fielding of the system, a spares package, installation and New Equipment Training (NET) for the country of Latvia. ACQUISITION APPROACH: This action will be awarded in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, quote mark Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. quote mark Fidelity Technologies Corporation is the sole supplier of the current CFFT II system and owns data rights for the Lightweight Laser Designator/Rangefinder (LLDR) simulated military equipment, which is a significant component of the system. Fidelity Technologies is also a qualified U.S. Contractor for export-controlled technical data in reference to CFFT II Foreign Military Sales. The CFFT II JCAS system for Latvia cannot be executed under the CFFT III IDIQ W900KK-12-D-0005 due to the fact that production of CFFT III systems will not begin until August 2013. ESTIMATED DOLLAR VALUE: The total contract value for this effort is estimated at approximately $460,000. RESPONSES REQUESTED: This notice is provided to verify that no other sources can meet this requirement given the proprietary technical requirements, expedited timeline and cost restraints.
