- N0016421SNB42 - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)/SOURCES SOUGHT - TR-333 HYDROPHONE SYNTACTIC DISCS - PSC 5845 - NAICS 334511 Issue Date: 22 FEB 2021 - Closing Date: 10 MARCH 2021 - 2:00 PM EDT REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) - The Government is issuing this RFI/sources sought announcement as part of market research for TR-333 Hydrophone Syntactic Discs. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division located at Naval Support Activity, Crane, IN intends to award a sole source contract to the current certified source, Ideal Instruments, 863 Washington St., Canton, MA 02021. (CAGE 00EU5).� This effort will be conducted on a sole source basis in accordance with the statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1.� The basis for restricting competition to the Hydrophone Syntactic Discs is that Ideal Instruments is the only responsible source capable of satisfying the agency's requirements and no other type of supplies will satisfy agency requirements. The program requires critical component suppliers to go through an extensive qualification plan, to include inspection, certification, first article testing, and operational testing. �Award to any other source would result in duplicative cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition as well as unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency requirement. In accordance with Department of Defense FAR Supplement (DFARS) Procedures, Guidance, and Information (PGI) 206.302-1, the Government is accepting information from companies potentially capable of meeting the requirements as described above.� All interested parties may submit company and 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, production quantity breaks, an explanation as to why the Government should not procure this effort on a sole source basis as stated above given the significant Government investment. Responses to the Market Survey shall include the following: Submitter�s Name Street Address, City, State, Zip Code Business Size Point of Contact (POC) POC Telephone Announcement Number:� N0016421SNB42 Please include the purpose/explanation of the response to the Market Survey, i.e. to better understand the Government requirements; to potentially become a viable source for future requirements; to take exception to the anticipated sole source as your company currently meets all of the Government requirements and can successfully offset the projected cost duplication and schedule delays. Interested parties must be properly registered in the Government System for Award Management database (SAM).� Contractors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation of requirements by calling 1-866-606-8220, or via the internet at www.sam.gov. At the current time, NO FUNDING IS AVAILABLE for contractual efforts.� This RFI/sources sought does not constitute an Invitation for Bids (IFB), a Request for Quote (RFQ), or a Request for Proposal (RFP) and it should not be construed as a commitment of any kind by the government to issue a formal solicitation or ultimately award a contract.� The US Government is in no way liable to pay for or reimburse any companies or entities that respond to this announcement.� Any costs incurred by interested companies in response to this announcement will NOT be reimbursed. Market Survey information may be submitted to the Point of Contact (POC) any time prior to the expiration of this announcement.� The POC for this effort is Erin Sherfield, erin.sherfield@navy.mil or 812-606-0939.� The mailing address is: NAVSURFWARCENDIV Crane Attention Erin Sherfield, Code 0221, Bldg 3373 300 Highway 361, Crane, IN 47522-5001.� Responses to this RFI/sources sought may be emailed to the POC above.
