- Description
- The previous synopsis posted on 11 March 2015 was cancelled on 19 March 2015 and the following synopsis amendment is posted on 25 March 2015. This synopsis provides notice of the Government's intent to extend contract N00421-09-C-0102, Communication-Electronic (CE) Platforms, via FAR Clause 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services. The contractor is BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services at 520 Gaither Road Rockville, MD 20850. This is necessary for the continuance of contractor support services to the Special Communications Requirements (SCR) Division of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) at St. Inigoes, MD while the follow-on contract is being completed. The contractor support services will include the rapid design, development, customization, manufacturing, fabrication, integration, test and evaluation, installation, certification, maintenance and upgrade, logistic, and life cycle support of new and/or existing CE Platforms, equipment/systems and subsystems. This extension covers a period of performance of approximately six months that will run from 15 August 2015 to 14 February 2016. This extension is necessary as the current contract performance is scheduled to end on 14 August 2015. Due to the ongoing nature of the support services currently being performed under contract N00421-09-C-0102 and the need to continue these services with a minimal break in work; BAE is the only practical source for providing the necessary continuation of these services until award of a competitive follow-on contract. The incumbent contractor, BAE, currently has fully trained personnel and a fully developed management system in place for execution of the required work. Re-solicitation for the six month period would not only result in a break in service, but would incur excessive costs to the Government. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. However, responsible interested parties may submit information in which they identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. The Government will consider all information received by 9 April 2015 1600 EST. A determination by the Government not to compete this procurement extension based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not pay for any information received. No telephone responses will be accepted. Any questions shall be submitted to Carolyn Emmart, Code 2.5.1.3.9, via email at carolyn.emmart@navy.mil. Per FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." BAE is the sole source capable of providing these support services without creating an impact on the sponsor schedules, project schedules, operations and operational readiness that would be caused by a break in service. It is unrealistic, from a technical and contractual perspective, to expect any other potential source to provide continued services prior to the competitive contract being awarded. Because of the nature of this requirement and the impracticality and substantial costs the Government would incur and not recover through competition, this will be procured on a sole source basis.
