- Description
- ***PLEASE CONTACT STEVEN SHAW WITH ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS OR TO SUBMIT CAPABILITIES AT steven.s.shaw@nasa.gov*** NASA/MSFC has a requirement for upgraded Ultrasonic power supplies, transducers and auxiliary equipment to support the Ultrasonic Stir Weld (USW) system at MSFC. NASA/MSFC intends to purchase the items from Dukane Company on a Sole Source basis. The current ultrasonic equipment on the existing USW was fabricated by the Dukane Company. The power supplies and transducers are integrated into the computer controlled operating system. Only the Dukane Company possess the knowledge and expertise capable to perform the requested upgrade in support of the USW system. The new upgraded ultrasonic equipment uses the same interface connections between the equipment and the control system. The same software code is used to control the operation of the upgraded equipment. Should another vendor provide the equipment, a new interface between equipment and controller would have to be designed and the operating code would have to be rewritten making the procurement more timely and costly. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. 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. CST on 03/03/2015. 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. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html PLEASE CONTACT STEVEN SHAW WITH ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS OR TO SUBMIT CAPABILITIES TO steven.s.shaw@nasa.gov***
