- Description
- NASA/LARC has a requirement for Polyethylene Foam Absorber. NASA/LARC intends to purchase the items from TDK RF Solutions, Inc. TDK is the original equipment manufacturer and sole provider of closed-cell pyramidal polyethylene broadband radio-frequency (RF) absorber. TDK polyethylene foam absorber was purchased under a previous order and is currently in use at NASA LaRC. Additional TDK polyethylene foam absorber is required in order to support additional Europa High Gain Antenna (and subsequent NASA mission) testing. It is imperative to procure this TDK polyethylene foam absorber in order to maintain compatibility and consistency with mission testing and existing polyethylene foam absorber. It would take substantial duplication of resources and time for another source to provide the required polyethylene foam absorber, and this additional expense is not expected to be recovered through competition. 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 12:30 p.m. local time on 08/20/2015.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.
