- Description
- AFMETCAL at Heath OH intends to solicit and award a Sole Source Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) in accordance with FAR Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures and FAR Part 12-Acquisition of Commercial Items for the purchase of Short Gauge Block Comparator Upgrade to Mahr Inc. (Cage 21938). �Mahr is the manufacturer of the original systems, and this procurement is for the upgrade of AFMETCAL's 20 original systems. The upgrade requires replacement components and specialized training that is not available through other vendors. It also involves proprietary software source code, which the OEM is unwilling to release to other vendors. For this requirement, there is no other action that can be accomplished to generate competition without a substantial duplication of costs. This procurement will provide the best value to the Government at this time. A sole source effort is required for the base quantities and option years to prevent significant downtime and increased calibration costs due to the proprietary data involved with the upgrade. Therefore, based on market research conducted Mahr Inc. is the only supplier that can offer this upgrade. �The Government envisions a Firm Fixed Price type contract with a basic year and 2 option years through 30 September 2023. �The anticipated quantity is 12 units on the base contract and an option for up to 8 option units. There is no guarantee that an option year will be exercised. �The requirement is for Short Gage Block Comparator Upgrade in accordance with the Purchase Description�and Data Requirements, which are available for download at this site. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS OR QUOTATIONS. �No solicitation package will be issued. � A determination by the Government not to compete this action based on responses received is solely within the discretion of the Government. � All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by AFMETCAL. �Interested sources must respond in writing with clear and convincing evidence to support their ability to provide the required item within fifteen (15) days of this publication. �Interested parties should submit questions to Allen Kurella at allen.kurella@us.af.mil. Only electronic submissions will be reviewed.� �
