- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT FOR $2.857B J&A The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) intends to increase the programmatic ceiling of its Advanced Technology Support Program III (ATSP3) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order contracts by issuing modifications. This J&A will increase the programmatic ceiling by $2.857B which would result in a total programmatic ceiling of $7.560B. The ATSP3 program requirements are executed via task orders which are placed against eight (8) IDIQ Contracts in order to provide engineering services to leverage advanced technologies. The current contracts which the Government intends to modify consistent with the terms identified within this announcement are as follows: H94003-04-D-0001, Lockheed Martin Mission Systems and Sensors; H94003-04-D-0002, BAE; H94003-04-D-0003, General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems; H94003-04-D-0004, Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems; H94003-04-D-0005, Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems; H94003-04-D-0006, Raytheon Company; H94003-04-D-0007, Boeing Company; and H94003-04-D-0008, Honeywell International Defense and Space Electronic Systems. The original basic contract Scope of Work for each contract award will remain unchanged. ATSP3 efforts may include developing components to meet the DoD's requirements for ultra-low volumes, extending component availability, or ensuring a trusted, assured, and secure supply of microelectronics; also included is the intelligent and rapid application of advanced technologies to add needed performance enhancements to DoD weapon systems in response to traditional and irregular (asymmetric) threats and to the problems related to aging weapon systems. Increasing warfighter capabilities and providing solutions to electronics support problems-such as, reliability, maintainability and obsolescence-are accomplished through the development and insertion of applications of advanced microelectronics technologies. The scope of ATSP3 covers both hardware and software and includes studies, analysis, design, software, simulation, prototyping, integration, testing, and limited production. The scope of ATSP3 also includes the development of viable methods and procedures for using available tools and resources, strategies for resolution of replacement alternatives, and technical interchange in support of task accomplishment. The Government intends to issue modifications and task orders to this contract consistent with the terms identified within this announcement upon the basis of the authority provided in 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1) and implemented by FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other services will satisfy requirement. A follow-on ATSP4 acquisition is in development, but it will take significant time to award the replacement contracts. ATSP4 will be a full and open competitive solicitation to cover future program needs. However, ATSP4 cannot satisfy the immediate capacity requirements integral to expeditiously meet the needs of the warfighter without introducing a critical delay in the delivery of the DMEA mission and engineering services requirements. This J&A provides sufficient programmatic ceiling to sustain current mission capability to allow adequate time to award the follow-on ATSP4 contracts. The Justification and Approval (J&A) will be posted on FedBizOpps in accordance with FAR 6.305(d) when it is coordinated and approved. Unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements would result if the modifications are not issued. Due to the unique prior experience and involvement of the current contractors and the anticipated recurring need for these services, the actions proposed within this announcement are justified. This Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive proposals, however, contractors may submit a capability statement documenting their capabilities for consideration. Only written responses will be considered, and all documents submitted will not be returned. Furthermore, a determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract action based upon responses to this Notice of Intent is solely within the discretion of the Government. Questions and/or comments may be directed to Robert Crandell via email at robert.crandell@dmea.osd.mil.
