Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division located at Naval Support Activity, Crane, IN 47522 intends to award a sole source contract to: Pattonair, 1900 Robotics Place, Fort Worth, TX 76118; CAGE (2N335). This effort is anticipated to be conducted on a sole-source basis IAW the statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. The basis for restricting competition is the anticipated substantial duplicative costs to the Government to qualify another manufacturer's product form, fit and function which are not anticipated to be recouped through competition, and the anticipated unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency requirements through any other source. The Government is seeking information from interested parties mitigating the sole-source basis cited above. Interested parties with the capabilities and facilities to provide components that meet the Government's specifications and qualification requirements for Serpentine Screws as outlined below: P/N SNT50063-08E8NW: 8-32 threaded, self-locking, heat treated alloy steel with zinc-cadmium plating, with vitron or silicone rubber rings, 5/32 allen head with an outer diameter about 0.310" +-0.005" and 1/2" thread length. P/N SNT50063-08V3NW: 8-32 threaded, self-locking, heat treated alloy steel with zinc-cadmium plating, with vitron or silicone rubber rings, 5/32 allen head with an outer diameter about 0.310" +-0.005" and 2" thread length. Responses should include availability, budgetary cost estimate, and lead time of the solution, as well as, whether a demonstration unit can be provided to expedite the Government decision-making process. While Contractors are not required to quote prices for any solutions proposed, the information will assist the Government in developing Business Case Analysis (BCA) supporting potential follow-on acquisition announcements to this RFI. If Contractors need additional Government requirements information in order to fully respond to this RFI, please contact the Government POC. All interested parties are encouraged to submit product literature, a white paper no longer than 5 pages, and/or other pertinent information, such as a description with performance parameters and a statement of current availability, summary of prior testing, test reports, a budgetary estimate of test articles, production units, and production quantity breaks to mitigate the reason why the Government should not procure this effort on a sole-source basis as stated above, and/or identify other Government contracts with similar efforts for the Government's consideration.
