- Description
- This is a Notice of Proposed Contract Action under the FAR Part 12 Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This notice is for information only; a solicitation will not be issued. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTATION. No contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 334220 with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. AFRL requires 2 Man Portable Unit Generation 5 (MPU5) radio routers with associated hardware. The Government intends to negotiate a sole source contract with Persistent Systems. 303 5th Ave. Suite 207 New York, NY 10016. The Government has determined that no other source has commercial offerings that can meet the Government's requirement; as the capabilities of the Man Portable Unit Gen 5 (MPU5) WaveRelay radio manufactured by Persistent Systems offers unique features unavailable in other tactical communications systems. The features include S-Band radio module,Ethernet ports, Audio Port + Push To Talk Voice + 16 Channels of Voice, power connector + 3 USB ports, Power over ehternet ability + 10/100 Ethernet port, FIPS 140-2 validation, Suite B Algorithms, HD Video Decoder/Encoder, IP68 Rated, 3x3 MIMO Technology The MPU5 radio routers have interchangeable internal radio modules, of which are compatible with L-Band, S-Band and C-Band frequencies. This product is critical to the Government's ability to develop, test and integrate software and identical hardware is required to that which is currently in operation to ensure operational compatibility and risk mitigation for transitioned software. This is a notice of proposed contract action and not a request for competitive proposals; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement or proposal, which shall be considered by the agency. All inquiries should be sent by email to Brooke.Hoffman@us.af.mil. Responses must be submitted by the date/time listed on the notice. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements. Responses received will be evaluated; however a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 18 August 2016. A Sole Source Justification will be attached to the subsequent Notice of Award.
