COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF FEBRUARY 11,1999 PSA#2281Naval Air Warfare Center TSD, Code 257, 12350 Research Parkway, Orlando
FL 32826-3275 69 -- AVIATION WARFARE TRAINING SYSTEMS ANALYSIS, DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT,
PRODUCTION AND REVISION (HELICOPTER) POC Cynthia Armound,
407/380-8460/Contracting Officer, Susan Gregory Minor, 407/380-8020
E-MAIL: Cynthia Armound, ArmoundCD@navair.navy.mil. Desc: The
Government intends to negotiate and award an extension to the current
Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC), N61339-94-D-0008, to Vertical
Flight Joint Venture, 3401 Columbia Pike, 3rd Floor, Arlington, VA
22204-4211. The extension will consist of a 12- month period, which
will provide a bridge contract, between the current contract and the
competitive RFP, N61339-98-R-0021, which will result in a follow-on
contract for training system development and revision for emerging and
existing helicopter aviation training systems. The period of
performance of the extension will commence on 1 October 1999. The
current contract provides analysis, design, development, revision,
production and implementation of training programs. The current
contract provides support for the following training devices, which are
located at multiple Naval Air Stations as well as Marine Corps Air
Stations installations and activities: SH-3, CH-46, CH-46E, CH-53D/E,
MH-53E, AH-UH/1, SH-60F, and SH-60B. These devices are used to provide
for revision and emerging training requirements to meet the required
fleet needs. The contractor shall provide independent analysis, design,
development, production and revision of helicopter training systems.
The extension of the current contract will be awarded per the authority
at 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source
and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements."
Vertical Flight Joint Venture has provided the services under the
current contract since September 14, 1994. Award of the extension to
any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the
Government that could not be recovered through competition for the
short period of performance cited. In addition, Vertical Flight Joint
Venture personnel possess the requisite security clearances necessary
for access at several of the training sites. Award to any other source
would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the Government's
requirements. See Note 22*** Posted 02/09/99 (W-SN296272). (0040) Loren Data Corp. http://www.ld.com (SYN# 0384 19990211\69-0001.SOL)
