## Description

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to issue a sole source follow-on production contract to the Bell-Boeing Joint Project Office (BBJPO) for the production years Fiscal Year (FY)18 through FY24 (Lots 22-28) V-22 aircraft. It is anticipated that this contract will be a seven-year, fixed price type contract. This procurement will include the supplies and services necessary to manufacture and deliver the required number of V-22 aircraft, and related production support, to include:

special tooling and test equipment; systems engineering; production management; parts obsolescence; engineering change proposals; and technical, administrative and financial data. The Government estimates that it will procure approximately 66 V-22 aircraft (and/or any variation in quantity up to 106 aircraft as may be authorized for domestic and/or Foreign Military Sales). The Government plans to issue an Advance Acquisition Contract (AAC) for long lead material and associated efforts supporting this procurement.

This requirement will be procured in accordance with the statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition under Title 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements."

As the sole designer, developer and manufacturer of the V-22 Aircraft, the BBJPO is the only source that currently possesses sufficient requisite knowledge, engineering expertise, aircraft integration information, and technical data required to perform this follow-on production of the V-22 aircraft in a timely and cost effective manner.

No other source has the technical qualification and necessary resources to perform the work described herein, nor will any other supplies or services satisfy the Government's requirements. Companies interested in subcontracting
