The Government intends to award a firm-fixed-priced contract to Kennon Products, Inc. under FAR 13.106-1(b) for canopy/cockpit covers for the B52’s located on Barksdale AFB, LA. This procurement action is being conducted in accordance with FAR 13.106(b)(1)(i), Contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available. An extended description of the product being acquired is as follows: The windshield cover is manufactured in a way that provides optimal coverage to the B-52H. The covers can withstand various weather conditions, including rain, snow, hail, and high winds, without compromising their effectiveness or integrity. Thermal insulation incorporated to prevent ice and snow buildup on the windshield, maintaining visibility and reducing the need for frequent removal. A secure and efficient fastening mechanism to keep the covers in place, considering factors like wind resistance and ease of application. Covers that are easy for aircrew or ground personnel to install and remove, with minimal initial instruction, allowing for quick turnaround times during operational needs. The design is in specification to: TO 1B-52H-2-2GA-1, 52J22001 Pilots’ Enclosure Cover. *This notice does not constitute a solicitation document. Requests for such documents will not be considered.
