- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This sole source commercial acquisition is undertaken under the authority of the test program for commercial items (section 4202 of the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996) and the authority of the Services Acquisition Reform Act of 2003 (41 U.S.C. 428a). This announcement constitutes the only solicitation, proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 05-36. The applicable North American Industry Classification Standard (NAICS) code is 334220. The small business size standard is 1000 employees. The U. S. Army Aviation Applied Technology Directorate (AATD) intends to award an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) sole source contract to Teletronics Technology Corporation (TTC) located in Newton, Pennsylvania for the purchase of data acquisition system (DAS) components, ground support equipment and related accessories based on existing and future components for integration into related test facilities (RTF). The requirement for TTC DAS includes support to aviation platforms to enhance hardware and software capabilities, to provide maintenance of hardware configuration items, to provide field service, technical support and training, and to provide management services for overall program control, supervision, planning, controlled storage, inventory control, configuration management, and documentation. AATD anticipates award of an IDIQ contract with a maximum value of $3,000,000 over the ordering period of five (5) years. The type of funding appropriate for the orders will be assessed at time of order placement. The IDIQ contract minimum is $100,000, to be awarded concurrently with award of the IDIQ contract. Orders will be issued on a firm fixed price basis using funding appropriate for the orders at time of placement. TTC is uniquely capable of satisfying the Governments requirement as it is the only known source that has application interfaces to the existing AATD TTC DAS and RTF TTC DAS equipment. No other source could provide interfaces with the DAS already in use without substantial duplication of cost as previously stated. Any attempt to acquire new DAS functionality or upgrade to the existing DAS from another vendor having similar types of airborne DAS would pose tremendous technical risk in terms of the data collection and assuredly preclude meeting test schedules. Furthermore, introduction of any similarly, but not completely capable hardware/software would also adversely impact efficiency and credibility of test products produced under AATD ground and flight test programs, many of which are technology insertions destined in as short a time period as possible to areas of operations. TTC products are the uniquely suitable solution to providing new capabilities and for maintaining the current capabilities without harm to the Government. The provision at 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition. Offerors shall include a completed copy of the provision at 52.212-3 Offeror Representations and Certifications Commercial Items, Alternate I with their offer.
