Description

NOTICE OF PROPOSED CONTRACT ACTION (NOPCA): The 47th Contracting Flight at Laughlin Air Force Base (LAFB) located in Del Rio, TX, intends to award, on a Sole Source basis using FAR Part 13, a Fixed Price Purchase Order for a Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) system.� In 2016, a significant hail storm damaged most of the LAFB T-1 fleet and caused structural damage on base. �In 2019, the largest hail event to date was reported on LAFB.� Additional equipment is required to help fill this limited data forecast area.� The required LiDAR system will be utilized to identify cloud composition and detect atmospheric phenomenon for weather monitoring.� Thorough market research was conducted, and a request for quotes (RFQ) was posted within GSA e-buy with no responses received.� Additionally, a sources sought was posted for 18 days in beta.sam. Interested vendors that submitted responses to the sources sought did not have the specific capabilities to meet the requirement. � Hail season at LAFB is rapid approaching and there is a real urgency for this requirement.� LAFB�s aircraft remain at risk and this LiDAR system drastically mitigates the risk of weather damage to the base�s aircraft. � Only one vendor has been identified as being capable of meeting the requirement and the short lead time required.� This purchase is anticipated to be awarded within the next 10 days to Droplet Measurement Technologies, a registered small business under NAICS #334519.� The purchase is anticipated to be under $250,000, and therefore the Government will be utilizing FAR Part 13 (specifically the single source procedures). Please direct any questions to A1C Zachary Jacobs at zachary.jacobs.10@us.af.mil and Mr. Jesus Perez at jesus.perez.3@us.af.mil.
