The Electronics Components Assembly is called the "Primary Disconnect Assembly, High Voltage Power Supply, Band 6, 7, 8" on its Engineering Drawing. The Primary Disconnect Assembly is part of the AN/ALQ-161A Electronic Countermeasures System (ECMS) installed on the B1-B bomber aircraft. The Primary Disconnect Assembly's function is disconnecting the three-phase primary power inputs phase A, B, and C during fault conditions in the Band 6, 7, & 8 transmitters. The Power Supply provides low voltage power (28VDC 15VDC, 12VDC, 5VDC, and -5VDC) for the Band 1-3 Receiver. Impediment to Competition: The original equipment manufacturer for these items is Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (CAGE 26916), which maintains its configuration by part number. The Government does not own the data, drawings, schematics, or any other releasable technical data in support of this requirement. As a result, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation is the only known source with adequate knowledge of these items' performance requirements and possession of the required technical data and capabilities needed to produce these items and ensure compatibility of the Band 1-3 Receiver and the AN/ALQ-161A ECMS. INTEREST The DLA/AWB Contracting Office intends to award a sole source contract to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation for the manufacture of the Power Supply and Primary Disconnect Assembly in support of the AN/ALQ-161A program. Other interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement no later than 21 Sep 2016 by emailing david.schnider.1@us.af.mil and/or dla.dlr.proc@us.af.mil. The Government intends to procure these items using Other Than Full and Open Competition as prescribed by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
