- Description
- The U.S. Dept of Commerce, NOAA, Wallops CDA Station, Wallops Island, Virginia, intends to negotiate and award a contract to L-3 Communications Datron Advanced Technologies, 200 W. Los Angeles Ave, Simi Valley, CA 93065-1650. The Government intends to award a firm fixed price purchase order for this requirement. Only one responsible source is available to satisfy the agency requirement for one (1) each waveguide rotary joint, L-3 Communications part number 43083-1. This waveguide rotary joint will be used on the POES 13M-A antenna system located at Wallops Command and Data Acquisition Station, Wallops Island, VA 23337. This antenna supplies satellite data to environmental forecasters enabling them to provide critical data that ultimately results in the preservation of lives and property. Should this procurement be delayed, the ability of Wallops CDA Station to provide weather forecasting data would be severely compromised. The POES 13M-A antenna system is complex and is comprised of state-of-the-art transmission and receive hardware, software, positioning and control systems that are proprietary to this manufacturer. L-3 Communications Datron Advanced Technologies, as the supplier and manufacturer, maintains complete descriptions and specifications for the rotary joints required and is the only available supplier for this product. In order to comply with the debt collection improvement act of 1966, all contractors must be registered in the central contractor registration (CCR) to be considered for an award of a federal contract. For information regarding registration in CCR contact the CCR Website at www.ccr.gov/index.cfm. The FSC for this requirement is 5985 and the NAICS code is 334419. This proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302 (c)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit a proposal. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received by 12pm, EST, November 19, 2008 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement 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 in the future. Responses to this notice, if any, must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Inquiries will only be accepted via email to Terri.L.Ford@noaa.gov
