Description

Redacted Sole Source This solicitation is a sole source acquisition notice for commercial items prepared in accordance with FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; offers are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) has a requirement to negotiate with Fountainhead Controlrooms, Inc. for the acquisition of spare components for the Gesab consoles installed in the Launch Service Program's Launch Vehicle Data Centers. This notice is being issued as a Sole Source Request for Quotation to Fountainhead Control Rooms, Inc., Duluth GA for the following purchase: Spare parts that are vendor proprietary for the existing consoles installed in the Launch Vehicle Data Centers at CCAFS Hangar AE and Vandenberg AFB Building 836. The spare parts being requisitioned have no substitutes that work with the existing consoles. Fountainhead Controlrooms currently is the sole US representative for the console manufacturer, Gesab LLC. The Government currently uses Fountainhead consoles and intends to maintain spare parts for consoles. Using another manufacture's console parts will add significant costs for additional spares and additional cost for training for installation and maintaining of the consoles. The monetary costs associated with purchasing another manufacture's parts and maintaining spares is greater than the actual cost of the required spare parts. The introduction of another brand of desk equipment would require excessive cost in maintaining the existing consoles. Any hardware added to the existing desk system has to be compatible in order for the consoles to be viable. To be consistent in architecture and infrastructure, the government requires Fountainhead products to maintain consistency and compatibility in an already designed console interface. Delivery of the spare components for the Gesab consoles are due no later than October 14, 2016. Quotation must reflect that the delivery date and period of performance can be met. Evaluation criteria are technical acceptability and overall lowest cost. It is critical that offerors provide adequate detail to allow evaluation of their offer. (SEE FAR 52.212-1(b)).
