There shall be no basis for claims against the Government as a result of information submitted in response to the RFI. Current market research shows that there is only one vendor capable of fulfilling the requirement however, it is the Government's intent to include responses to this RFI when making its final determination to negotiate on a sole source basis. REQUIREMENT: The United States Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) is seeking to purchase 100 Cybernetic Parachute Release System-2 (CYPRES-2) designed to automatically open the main canopy of a Military Free Fall Parachute.

The following clauses shall be inserted in the solicitation and resultant contract: FAR 52.211-14 -- Notice of Priority Rating for National Defense, Emergency Preparedness, and Energy Program Use and FAR 52.211-15 -- Defense Priority and Allocation Requirements. INTERESTED SOURCES CAPABLE OF FULFILLING THIS REQUIREMENT shall submit documentation addressing all required elements listed herein; providing only a reference to a website is unacceptable for purposes of this announcement and will not be considered or reviewed. All proprietary or corporate data received shall be clearly identified and shall be protected from release to sources outside the Government. Please do not submit classified material.

To be considered, any such documentation shall be submitted in writing by 19 December 2016 at 4:00pm EST. As this is a critical purchase incorporating a DPAS rating, no extensions will be granted. FINAL DETERMINATION: Provided no other interested sources with the capability to fulfill this requirement are identified, the U.S. Army Special Operations Command, Fort Bragg, North Carolina intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the original equipment manufacturer's (Airtec GmbH & Co.) sole distributor for the USA (SSK Military Industries, Inc., 1008 Monroe Road, Lebanon, OH), under the authority of 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
