- Description
- This is a Notice of Proposed Contract Action under FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This notice is for information only; a solicitation will not be issued. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. No contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334220 with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. AFRL requires 3 new Wideband HF RT-2200A Radios. The RT-2200A enables signal processing capabilities and has specific technology at the required Wideband frequency range. The following items comprise the requirements: (QTY 3) P/N 822-3228-001, RT-2200A - Wideband HF Radio Frequency range: HF 3-30 Mhz Market research was performed, and no suitable alternative was identified. Competitors do exist, but lack the capability for rapid prototyping and proven operational testing at the desired frequencies. Award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the requirements including costs related to training, installation, software development, engineering, maintenance, and support. The Government intends to negotiate a sole source contract with Rockwell Collins, 400 Collins Rd NE, Cedar Rapids, IA 52498 This is a notice of proposed contract action and not a request for competitive proposals; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement or proposal, which shall be considered by the agency. All inquiries should be sent by email to Brooke.Hoffman@us.af.mil Responses must be submitted by the date/time listed on the notice. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements. Responses received will be evaluated; however a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 26 September 2016. A Sole Source Justification will be attached to the subsequent Notice of Award in accordance with applicable regulation.
