The Government plans to award a sole source contract to Planar Monolithics Industries, Inc. (PMI) � 7311 Grove Rd. Frederick, MD 21704. �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 is the lack of sufficient technical data, duplicative cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, and the unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency requirement through any other source.� The Government is seeking information from companies mitigating the sole source basis listed above.� The Government is seeking companies with the capabilities and facilities to provide MARPS equipment and laboratory test system for an upgraded MARPS that will interface to the WiTS. Please complete attached market questionnaire with part and nomenclatures necessary to meet this requirement. Responses should include software documentation, technology readiness level of any products, technical data sheets, historical evidence of MARPS equipment production, and budgetary cost estimates.� All interested parties are encouraged to submit company and product literature, a white paper no longer than 3 pages, and other pertinent information or descriptions in order to mitigate the reason why the Government should not procure this effort on a sole source basis as stated above, and /or identify other Government contracts with similar efforts for the Government(s) consideration.
