- Description
- The Proposed action is to award a firm fixed price purchase order for the special modification of the Ametek PDU-2000-06-101 Power Distribution Unit (PDU) with Non-Recurring Engineering to support Global Positioning System (GPS)-based Positioning, Navigation, and Timing Service (GPNTS) �Load Shedding� testing at NIWC Pacific. If another manufacturer�s product is purchased the GPNTS baseline would need to be unnecessarily changed and retested at a great expense to the government. The delay required to re-architect and retest the use of another vender�s product would prevent NIWC Pacific from completing the ""Load Shedding"" test. The cost to reprogram, re-test and certify the GPNTS with another vendor�s product is estimated to be between $0.5 million to $2.0 million, the costs of which would not be recovered through competition or a promise of improved reliability or performance. In addition, this backwards step in testing will not meet the GPNTS �Load Shedding� schedule to test in FY23.
