BAE CAS BFN ATP Workstation

Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to issue a fixed-price delivery order against an existing sole source Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) to BAE Systems, Information and Electronic Systems Integration (BAE Systems) for supplies and services associated with the Combined Interrogator Transponder (CIT) and its related products – Conformal Antenna Subsystem (CAS), Beam Forming Network (BFN), etc. The delivery order will include but it not limited to the scope of work to upgrade a classified CIT CAS BFN acceptance test procedure (ATP) workstation contained in the secure test facility at BAE Systems, Greenlawn, NY, upgrading/replacing antiquated computer hardware, test equipment and fixtures to the latest Windows operation system, as well as re-write, verify and validate test software as required to function with the new hardware and operating system; latent defects and operation flight program (OFP) updates to address deficiencies;, engineering technical assistance and trouble shooting in support of these equipment; and antenna/aperture work in support of JTT development.

This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis to BAE Systems 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 Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Part 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(B), “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.” BAE Systems is the only company with the requisite unique knowledge, experience, special skills, facilities, manufacturing techniques, and technical data required to support the above-mentioned combat identification systems.

Procurement of the instant requirement from any other supplier would result in unacceptable delay and, ultimately, impact to procurement of program requirements and support necessary for fleet operations. This notice of intent is neither a request for proposal nor a solicitation of offers. This synopsis is provided for information purposes only. A determination not to compete this requirement is solely within the discretion of the United States Government.
