Description
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), NAS Patuxent River, MD, intends to negotiate and award a modification to contract N0001923C0034, with Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) CLINs, on a sole source basis to Meggitt Defense Systems, Inc. Meggitt is the sole designer, developer, and integrator of the Light Off Detector (LOD). This requirement will be for the improved and/or more producible technologically advanced design of the Light Off Detector (LOD). The scope of this effort will include developing, designing and validating technological improvements to mitigate obsolescence concerns and improving producibility. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, Only one Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements for the proposed action. Meggitt, as the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), is the designer, developer, manufacturer, and depot for the Light Off Detector. Only Meggitt possesses the technical data necessary to fulfill the requirements listed above. Additionally, the design of the LOD is proprietary to Meggitt. The issuance of the modification will fall within statutory authority of Title 10, U.S.C. Section 3204 (c)(1), as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1. In accordance with FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(A), the Government has deemed the requirements listed above for the continued development or production of a major system, or highly specialized equipment including major components thereof, to be available only through the original source, and has determined that award to any other source would result in significant duplication of costs which would not be recovered through competition. As such, NAVAIR has determined Meggitt Defense Systems, Inc. is the only responsible source capable of meeting the Government s minimum needs. This synopsis is published for informational purposes only and is not a request for competitive proposals. Per FAR 10.002 (d) (2), the Government does NOT intend to use the provisions of FAR Part 12 for this acquisition.
