- Description
- The U.S. Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground-Belvoir Division, on behalf of Project Manager Expeditionary Energy and Sustainment Systems (E2S2) intends to negotiate with Cummins Power Generation, Inc., 1400 73rd Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN on a sole source basis to procure Advance Medium Mobile Power Sources (AMMPS) Generators, in 5kW, 10kW, 15kW, 30kW and 60kW sizes, operating in the 50/60Hz or 400 Hz mode for a period of performance of seventeen (17) months. AMMPS supports the specialized tactical power generation needs of the Department of Defense (DoD) and its components, which require unique, non-commercial features such as the use of Jet Propulsion fuel, type 8 (JP-8) fuel and operability in extreme environmental conditions. The resulting contract will be Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ). It has been determined the Cummins Power Generation, Inc. is the only responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1); Only one Responsible Source and no Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements. Cummins Power Generation was the incumbent manufacturer of AMMPS under contract number W15P7T-04-D-A003. This contract was awarded using full and open competition on 29 September 2004 for a developmental effort and production ordering periods. The contract expired 28 September 2014. Currently there is no Government contract that provides for the continued need for military-specification generator sets in the 5kW to 60kW sizes and there are no known commercial generators that can meet the Government's need. Delivery of these units is required to begin within 3-6 months from contract award. Cummins Power Generation is the only source that has produced the required sets, passed necessary First Article Testing requirements, and has all the necessary special fabrication tools to meet the Governments requirement and schedule. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals. However, all responsible sources may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. All proposals received within 15 days will be considered by the Government. Responses shall be no longer than ten (10) pages and shall be in a Microsoft word compatible format. All responses and requests shall be submitted via email to the Contract Specialist, Sue Whelan, at susan.p.whelan.civ@mail.mil. Telephone requests for additional information will not be honored. Acknowledgement of receipt will be issued. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
