- Description
- The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst, NJ intends to negotiate on a non-competitive basis with MANTECH Security & Mission Assurance Corporation, 7799 Leesburg Pike, STE 700S, Falls Church, VA 22043-2436 for Program Management Security Support Services for the Joint Strike Fighter Program Office (JSFPO). The Government intends to procure the above service under the authority of 10 USC 2304 (c) (1), FAR 6.302-1, to ensure there will not be a break in the services required, while a competitive Seaport-e Task Order is being put in place. The period of performance on this procurement will be six months from date of award, with two (2) three-month option periods. The Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) (F-35) program is a joint DoD ACAT 1D major acquisition program that includes the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Marine Corps. JSF also includes eight foreign partner countries formally identified as Cooperative Partner Participants (CPP) along with two other countries called Security Cooperative Participants (SCP). Because of the international nature of the program, combined with the highly sensitive technologies being designed into the total air system, consolidated security support to ensure proper technology protection and dissemination is paramount in the execution of the JSF program. MANTECH Security & Mission Assurance Corporation is currently supplying the support services for this requirement. It is in the Government's best interest to issue a new contract to MANTECH for a continuation of services. This will insure there will not be a break in the services required, which would be detrimental to the JSF Program. The impact of failing to award this continued support for the JSF program is both operational and financial. Protection of the critical technologies that distinguish the combat effectiveness of the JSF from legacy programs is essential to the security of the program and essential that the current support be maintained to continue to protect those technologies throughout the entire program life cycle, including deployment and sustainment. Any interruption to these services would cause the entire program to cease operations. Furthermore, there is a financial impact to disrupting the JSFPO Operations because a restart after a stoppage will lead to duplication of costs that will not be recovered. This contract is being processed solely for the purpose to insure continuity of services to avoid interruption of program support. There is a competitive SEAPORT-e package in process for the contractor support service requirements. This sole source action is a temporary bridge for the continuation of services until the SEAPORT-e Task Order is in place. A determination by the Government not to open this requirement to competition based upon the response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Responses must be received within 15 days of publication of this notice. Any responses should reference N68335-12-R-0055. The Point of Contact is: Ms. Rachel Bogner, email rachel.bogner@navy.mil.
