- Sole Source Synopsis Solicitation Number: FA860118R0043 Notice Type: Special Notice Synopsis: The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/PZIBC, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344 publishes this notice of intent to award a sole source contract for informational purposes only. The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) requires printed circuit board (PCB) connectors and harnesses for bus components. AFIT requires connectors and harnesses that were used in the original design of the Grissom CubeSat bus. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 334417-Electronic Connector Manufacturing. Business size standard: 1,000 Employees. The proposed source is Omnetics Connector Corp. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract regardless of responses that may be received to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received by 1:00 pm Local (Wright-Patterson AFB) Time, Tuesday, 29 May 2018. In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows: Omnetics is the only available source for these reagents, as the Omnetics connectors and harnesses were used in the design of the AFIT Grissom CubeSat bus. Any other physical dimensions of the connectors and harnesses would not match the tolerances that are required for the PCB designs and shielding cover designs. The Department of Defense (DOD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DOD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DOD. Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for solicitations issued after 29 May 2012. You may contact SAM by telephone at 866-606-8220 or online at https://www.sam.gov. The contact for this acquisition is Brock Bowers and can be reach at 937-255-4616. Any information should be e-mailed to brock.bowers@us.af.mil no later than 1:00 pm eastern standard time Tuesday, 29 May 2018. Only inquiries/information received by this date will be considered.
