The FISC Norfolk Detachment Philadelphia intends to procure an estimated 82,000 man hours of engineering and technical services in support of the implementation of H-60 helicopter avionics and weapon systems modifications. The services will be provided in support of the preparation and implementation of Class I engineering change proposals to the H-60's avionics and weapon systems. Services are required in support of major configuration changes and integration efforts such as: Modify AVR-2A sensors of advanced aircraft survivability equipment suite; integration ultra low maintenance battery system directed by operational safety improvement program number 06-01; engineering and integration support of the integrated maintenance diagnostics system and SH-60B armed helo integration. Services will be required during the period from 1 June 2000 through 31 May 2002. The Government anticipates the placement of a labor hour contract consisting of a base year and a one year option period. The Government intends to procure the required services on a sole source basis from DynCorp Information and Engineering Technology, Inc., Fairfax, VA pursuant to the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements" as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1. DynCorp is the only firm with the technical expertise in the H-60 configuration and integration process that is necessary to provide the required services. DynCorp has provided critical system engineering and integrated logistic support in the formulation and development of the modifications to be implemented. Deployments and mission requirements dictate minimal availability of the aircraft for the implementation of required avionics and weapon systems modifications. Only Dyncorp has the requisite technical knowledge and expertise to install and integrate the required modifications within the limited aircraft availability time frames involved.

However, all proposals received by the specified response date will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. The Standard Industry Code (SIC) for this requirement is 8711.
