Description

The F-35 Lighting II Program Office intends to modify an order under Basic Agreement N00019-24-G-0010. The U.S. Government (USG) requires additional Flight Test Instrumentation (FTI) hardware to support modifications to F-35 Lightning II aircraft for flight test. Additional hardware will enable collection of test data from vehicle and mission systems. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 3201(a)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company is the sole designer, developer, manufacturer and integrator of the F-35 aircraft and the related equipment. Lockheed Martin alone has the experience, special skills, proprietary technical documentation, software/algorithms, and technical expertise required to furnish the supplies and services within the required timeframe. Accordingly, Lockheed Martin is the only known qualified, responsible source that can fulfill the requirements specified herein. Subcontracting opportunities may be available and should be sought with Lockheed Martin through Emma Stevens, 817-655-8902. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement. No telephone responses will be accepted. A determination by the U.S. Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the U.S. Government. Information submitted by respondents to this technical description is strictly voluntary. There is no commitment by the U.S. Government to issue a solicitation, make an award or awards, or be responsible for any costs expended by interested parties before award of a contract for the effort described above. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the government to solicit for or award a contract. The data associated with the F-35 Lighting II Program is export controlled and is not available to foreign sources or representatives.
