E-MAIL: Robert Pryor III, robert.pryor@langley.af.mil. The ACC Contracting Squadron intends to award a purchase order, under other than full and open competition, to REMOTEC, INC. for the procurement of 14 Mk 2 RCT wheel kits for delivery to 14 different stateside locations. These wheel kits are being purchased as part of the Remote Ordnance Neutralization System (RONS). RONS is an initiative to upgrade the Mk2 Remote Controlled Transporter. The robots were procured, sole source from REMOTEC Inc. Therefore, upgrades on the robots will also be made by REMOTEC for compatibility reasons. The Air Force intends to conduct this procurement in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Parts 6.3, 12, and 13. All responsible sources may submit responses to this notice of proposed sole source contract action. Responses must include written documentation providing conclusive evidence that a proposed alternative to the REMOTEC Mk 2 RCT wheel kits provides, at a minimum, the same capabilities and functions required to meet the needs of the Air Force as stated herein. To be considered, responses shall be submitted in sufficient detail to enable accomplishment of a thorough technical education. Responses received shall be processed in accordance with Air Force FAR Supplement Subpart 5305.204-90. The deadline for receipt of responses is 1600 EST 28 Jul 99. Responses must be submitted in writing, by fax, e-mail, or delivered by mail. If no responses are received by the stated deadline, or all responses received are found to be technically unacceptable, the procurement will proceed under other than full and open competition as described herein.
