- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE The Office of Naval Research (ONR) intends to issue a fixed price award to a single source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), Soliciting from a single source. An award will be made on or about 31 March 2015 to Arorae Corporation (ARORAE). The period of performance will be six (6) months. Arorae Corporation shall provide Surface Weapons and Tactic Instructor (SWTI) Trade Study to identify computer-based simulation capabilities and solutions for training that can be introduced within and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the SWTI Course of Instruction (COI). The performer will conduct a survey of current and emerging enabling technologies within both commercial and U.S. government agencies and engage with Navy training commands to link capabilities to the SWTI training objectives and overall Navy training enterprise. The trade study will provide knowledge of the state-of-the-art in computer-based simulation training technologies that can address the SWTI COI curriculum requirements and fit into DoD computing environment policies. These results will be integrated into ONR's Environment Designed to Undertake Counter Anti-access Area Denial (A2AD) Tactics Training and Experimentation (EDUCAT2E) Capable Manpower Program (CMP). ONR intends to award this requirement as a sole source to ARORAE. Due to ARORAE's extensive historical knowledge and expertise of the above referenced systems, ARORAE is the only company that can provide the required services with sufficient high quality and timeliness. If a company other than ARORAE was selected to perform this work, they would lack the understanding of the fleet tactical and operational requirement in this area of training and required certification which the personnel from ARORAE have obtained. Awarding to an Offeror other than ARORAE would duplicate previous effort, increase cost and lengthen the program schedule for the Federal Government. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 611710 with the size standard of 500 employees. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals or quotes; however, all responsible sources may submit a quotation and technical capabilities, which, if received within fifteen calendar days of publication of this notice, shall be considered by ONR. All responses must be submitted to the Government point of contact at the email address shown below. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
