- Description
- NASA/GRC has a requirement for fabrication of 3D Woven Preforms. NASA/GRC intends to purchase the items from Textile Engineering & Manufacturing (T.E.A.M., Inc), 841 Park E Drive, Woonsocket, RI 02895-6112. Over the past five (5) years, this vendor has developed a unique capability with NASA/GRC to weave high temperature silicon carbide fibers creating a woven "preform" that forms a ceramic matrix composite when it is infiltrated with a high temperature ceramic matrix material. The current process used by T.E.A.M., Inc. does not cause damage (loss of strength) to the fibers. This process has proven to be the most effective approach. It would not be cost effective to the program to include any other vendor due to the amount of previous research. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12 and the Simplified Acquisition Procedures set forth and FAR Part 13. The Sole Source is under the authority of FAR Reference 13.106-1(b)1. 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. (Eastern Standard Time) on Friday, August 26th, 2016. 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. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.html.
