- Description
- Title: Production of Extracted High and Low Speed Container Delivery System (EHLSCDS) Contract The U.S. Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), Natick Contracting Division (NCD) on behalf of Product Manager Force Sustainment Systems (PdM FSS), located at the Natick Soldier Systems Center intends to negotiate a contract modification on a sole source basis in order to extend the production ordering period by three (3) years for the EHLSCDS production contract that was competitively awarded on 10 June 2016 with a five (5) year ordering period. PdM FSS has a requirement for the EHLSCDS production ordering period to be extended by three (3) years under the existing firm fixed price IDIQ contract W911QY-16-D-0052 IAW DFARS 217.204(e)(1) which provides the DoD the authority to extend IDIQ contracts beyond five years. The Army requirement is to have a contract vehicle in place to procure EHLSCDS parachutes, components, spare parts and associated equipment under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The EHLSCDS has been in limited production under the build to print production IDIQ contract that to date has only utilized approximately $1.1M or approximately 20% of the total $6M ceiling that was expected to be utilized in the original five (5) year plan. Due to low demand and limited funding of the system additional production years are required under the existing contract as it would not be cost effective or time prohibitive to compete a new IDIQ production contract at this time. The required ordering period extension is based off of a contract that was competitively awarded as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 314999, and the size standard is 500 employees. This is a notice of intent and is not a request for competitive quotations or proposals. Due to the specifics identified herein Strong Enterprises is the only known source currently capable of producing the potential limited production quantities of EHLSCDS over the next three (3) years without duplicating costs and causing delays in product availability. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, which shall be considered by the agency. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. If no affirmative written response is received by 12:00 p.m. EDT on 21 May 2021, the contract extension modification will be issued without further notice. A determination by the Government not to compete this ordering period extension requirement is based on this notice and is solely within the discretion of the Government. Any questions or submissions shall be made in writing and directed to the U.S. Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), Natick Contracting via e-mail to: Sean.G.Auld.civ@mail.mil and Eileen.Emond.civ@cvr.mil no later than the date and time specified in this sources sought notice.
