- Description
- Production of an additively manufactured billet of 4340 steel (SOLE SOURCE). Solicitation N00421-16-T-0191 is issued as intent to sole source. The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed-price basis, and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase order on a sole source basis with Keystone Synergistic Enterprises, under the authority implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) by FAR Part 13.106-1(b). Keystone was selected due to their patented and proprietary Robotic Pulsed-Arc process, under previous contract N00178-06-D-4724 to have them supply material for the test program. There is a need to do some follow on testing on their material for further research and evaluations. The parameters that are being used to produce the required 3-D Printed build are being taken from the Navy 15A-T007 STTR, which used Keystone as an industry partner. These parameters are not public, and are the trade secret and IP of Keystone. Utilizing a source other than Keystone would require conducting new research, testing, interface, certifications, etc. at a significant cost to the government, which is unrecoverable in this small procurement. This is a total set-aside for small business under the authority of FAR Part 52.219-6. ***Basis for Award*** This notice is intent to Sole Source with Keystone Synergistic Enterprises.
