- Description
- Note: Solicitation No. HQ0276-16-R-0007 addresses the effort under former Solicitation No. HQ0276-15-R-0003. The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) intends to award a sole source contract valued at $6M ($1.5M annually) to Secotec, Incorporated (Secotec) of 4935 Century Street NW, Suite 201, Huntsville, Alabama, for Infrared Kill Assessment System (KAS) Data Link Test Engineering, Range Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Decryptor (RAD) Maintenance and Operation, and Lethality Payload and Hit Detection Systems (HDS) Design and Development for Aegis BMD Flight Test Missions (FTMs). This is a follow-on contract to contract number HQ0276-11-C-0001. The anticipated contract period of performance for this requirement is four years (one 12-month base period and three 12-month option periods). Under this contract, Secotec will continue to upgrade and deliver incremental modifications to the KW Image Processor (KWIP) for Block IIA missile applications. After assessment and implementation of required upgrades for future flight tests, Secotec will perform test engineering and test readiness functions in support of timely Aegis BMD FTM execution. Secotec will continue to perform updates between every Flight Test, as well as ongoing assessment and maintenance duties. Secotec is the owner of a proprietary product not otherwise available to the Government. As such, they are the only source with the requisite knowledge, expertise and experience to perform upgrade services and ensure proper test execution in the required timeframe necessary to meet mission requirements. This expertise cannot be attained from another source without duplication of costs and a delay in fulfilling the Agency's requirements. The MDA intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(i)(b), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements: Offers a Concept or Services Not Otherwise Available to the Government. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. MDA invites any other contractor that reasonably believes it can fulfill the requirements without incurring duplication of costs and experiencing delays to provide a capability statement electronically to Michael B. Donaldson, Contracting Officer, at michael.donaldson@mda.mil by 5:00pm Eastern Time, 15 days after publication. The U.S. Government is not liable for any cost associated with the capability statement. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Secotec, Incorporated directly at 4935 Century Street NW, Suite 201, Huntsville, Alabama 35816-1901.
