The United States Air Force (USAF) intends to negotiate a firm fixed price purchase order, on a sole source basis, with CAST Navigation LLC under other than full and open competition by the authority of FAR subpart 13.106(1)(b). The CAST Navigation Test Stations function, is to test multi-million dollar aircraft electronic components. Sustainment of this stand is critical to the functioning of the weapons systems that it directly supports. The performance of CAST Navigation Test Station and it highly specialized ability to support multiple weapons system effectively, is essential to the mission of the 309th EMXG. Without the CAST Navigation Test Station(s) the 309. USAF believes that award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost and unacceptable delay to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition. To procure another test station not already developed, would duplicate the effort and increase the cost required by the initial procurement of the CAST Navigation Test Station. Also, there is an issue of compatibility with existing hardware and software already procured from CAST Navigation. CAST CAST Navigation LLC is the OEM and provides fully trained and certified staff on its proprietary Navigation system. This proprietary systems includes both hardware and software, which is available exclusively to CAST Navigation. In addition, CAST Navigation LLC is the only source for factory-certified, OEM replacement parts. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 541511, and the size standard is $27.5M. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. The Government will consider responses received by 3:00 p.m. (MST) on 10 Nov, 2015. Inquiries will only be accepted via email to david.bryan.8@us.af.mil. No telephone requests will be honored. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future.
