Description
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Patuxent River, MD intends to issue a modification to the existing Sustaining Engineering and Support (SES) IV Contract, N0001924C0005, on a sole source basis to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (NGSC). The anticipated contract modification is for incorporation of highly specialized sustainment support of the Triton MQ-4C Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) unique to the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). Efforts will include, but not be limited to, generation of RAAF unique engineering test procedures, RAAF unique network configuration documentation, and RAAF unique engineering and technical reports, informed by currently performed sustainment activities. This contract modification is being pursued on a sole source basis under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204 (a)(l) as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.103-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements." NGSC is the sole designer, developer, manufacturer, integrator, and producer of the MQ-4C Triton air vehicles and ground stations. Therefore, NGSC is the only source with the requisite knowledge of the Triton design, operation, and maintenance to successfully provide the necessary FSRs, engineering, systems integration, and sustainment support.
