- Description
- It is the Government's intent to negotiate with Northrop Grumman Corporation, Integrated Systems Sector, Airborne Ground Surveillance and Battle Management Systems, PO Box 9650, Melbourne, FL 32902-9650, a modification to Contract F19628-98-C-0003 for Wave Guide Pressurization Retrofit Kits for fielded E-8C planes, 1-11, and the test E-8C, T3. During this effort, the Contractor will implement an alternate means to pressurize the radar wave guide to preclude hydraulic fluid and radar subsystem liquid coolant contamination from being introduced into the wave guide. Northrop Grumman is currently the incumbent contractor. Statutory Authority is 10 USC 2304(C)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1 "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." It is considered that only Northrop Grumman has the requisite management, technical expertise, Joint STARS expertise, and resources to accomplish this effort within the current schedule and budget constraints of the E-8C production effort. The ESC Acquisition Ombudsman, Colonel Joseph Magnone, Director, Commander's Staff, has been appointed to hear concerns from offerors or potential offerors during proposal development. You should only contact the Ombudsman with issues or problems you cannot satisfactorily resolve with the program manager and/or contracting officer. The Ombudsman role is to hear concerns, issue, and recommendations and communicate these to the appropriate government personnel. The Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality if desired. The Ombudsman does not evaluate proposals or participate in source selection. You can contact the Ombudsman at (781) 377-5106. See Notes 22 and 26.
