- Description
- The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to enter into sole source negotiations with Rolls-Royce Military AERO Engines LTD, Bristol, England, and subsequently award a delivery order under Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N00019-17-G-0008, to provide an F402 (AV-8B) specific, Foreign Object Damage (FOD) Study and Analysis Program for calendar year 2019. This contract action will be issued on a sole-source basis under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements." Rolls Royce Military AERO Engines, LTD. is the original designer, developer, and manufacturer of the F402 (AV-8B) series engine and is the only source with the requisite knowledge, experience and technical expertise to continue to provide the required supplies and services. Rolls Royce was selected as the prime contractor for the original engine development resulting from a full and open competition. Under this contract, Rolls Royce shall provide a comprehensive FOD Studies and Analysis Program that shall include: On-site study, engineering analysis and technical services to address and mitigate safety and logistics issues for the F402 engine. This program will focus on increasing the operational readiness and safety of flight by reducing FOD rates on the F402 Engine. The Period of Performance for this contract is twelve months. Rolls Royce is the only source with the technical data, facilities and capabilities required to provide the associated system and sustainment support for the F402 (AV-8B) series engine. Rolls-Royce maintains configuration control over the F402 engine and the Government lacks the requisite data rights to support competition. No other manufacturer could design, develop and properly integrate F402 engine upgrades to meet the contract period of performance required to resolve issues in the fleet with the current configuration. The Government does not intend to use the provisions of FAR Part 12 for this acquisition. For subcontracting opportunities, please contact Charles Higgin Rolls-Royce plc at + (44) 117 9794431, or charles.higgin@Rolls-Royce.com. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. However, responsible interested parties may submit a capability statement in which they identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. A determination by the Government not to compete this procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not pay for any information received.
