- Description
- The Air Technical Applications Center (AFTAC) , Nuclear Treaty Monitoring (TT) Directorate, Patrick Air Force Base, Florida, Contracting Office AMIC DET 2 OL/PKA (Patrick AFB FL) intends to solicit and negotiate with one source to �DXN TEKnologies, LLC.� The statutory authority for this acquisition is 10 U.S.C 2304(c) (1) as implemented by FAR 13.501(a) in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1901. This contract is intended to purchase a Maintenance Support Workstation Software for current seismic equipment monitoring. The workstation will be used with obsolete Science Horizon equipment to return the equipment to factory specifications. The workstation does require an array certification and Science Horizon license, which can only be provided through DXN TEKnologies LLC to link between outdated and new technologies. One-of-a-kind seismic workstation software is currently only available from DXN TEKnologies. The original workstation manufacturer, Science Horizon Inc. (SHI), produced seismic equipment for 20 years before going out of business. This is the only manufacturer known that is capable of producing obsolete workstation software which uses obsolete ADCPP formatting. No other workstation software will interface with the SHI equipment and an SHI software license must be had. The contractor shall provide special asset tags IAW MIL STD-130, DODI 88320.04, Item Unique Identification (IUID) Standards for Tangible Personal Property and DFARS 252.211-7703, Item Identification and Valuation. In order to ensure new design enhancements and technological updates or advances, the contractor shall offer, under this DO, hardware and software components available to the contractor's commercial customers. Furthermore, the contractor shall make available any commercially available updates to the hardware and software provided under this DO. All activities will be under the guidance and direction of AFTAC and in compliance with international treaties. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 541330. Therefore, it has been determined that DXN TEKnologies, LLC is the only responsible source capable of collecting and providing this service. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement within fourteen (15) days of the issuance of this notice. AMIC DET 2 OL/PKA (Patrick AFB FL) will consider responses received by 12:00 P.M., EDT, on 04 August 2023. Inquiries will only be accepted via email to Mr. Joshua Aceved at joshua.acevedo.1@us.af.mil. No telephone requests will be honored. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. No RFP will be issued based upon this Notice of Intent. 5352.201-9101 OMBUDSMAN (OCT 2019) (a) An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the interested party to another official who can resolve the concern. (b) Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions). (c) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, the interested party may contact the ombudsman, Lt Col Aaron D. Judge, 129 Andrews St, Langley AFB, VA 23665-2769, phone number (757) 764-5372, facsimile number (757) 764-4400, E-mail address: aaron.judge@us.af.mil.
