- Description
- Intent to Sole Source The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/Operational Contracting Division, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344. This is a Sole Source synopsis published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the procurement of an extended warranty & calibration services for AFRL's existing Teledyne LeCroy "LabMaster" Oscilloscope System. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106 (b)(1). This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 811219. The size standard is $20,500,000.00. The proposed source is Teledyne LeCroy, Inc., 700 Chestnut Ridge Road, Chestnut Ridge Road, NY 10977. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received within three (3) days of this notice. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: The proposed sole source is the only known source to the government that can both offer an extended warranty on and calibrate its own products. Procurement of a new oscilloscope with equivalent service contracts from another manufacturer would cause a significant cost increase and would cause a significant Non-Recurrent Engineering (NRE) effort to integrate the hardware, re-write software scripts, and develop equipment interfaces. The designs of oscilloscopes from other manufacturers are limited to four analog input channels, whereas the Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscope system contains twelve input channels. The NRE effort would increase the cost of the acquisition and require more than one man-year of effort, having significant mission impacts to schedule and operations with the potential risk that specific functionality required cannot be effectively duplicated. The Department of Defense (DoD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DoD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DoD. Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for solicitations issued after 29 May 2012. You may contact SAM at 866-606-8220. SAM website: www.SAM.gov Any information should be e-mailed to gregory.orlando@us.af.mil or julie.hansen.1@us.af.mil no later than 12:00 p.m. EST Thursday, 08 October 2015.
