Dytran Sensors

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for Dytran sensors. The compliant material is available solely from Dytran Instruments, Inc., as the required support can only be purchased through Dytran. The NAICS code is 334511 and the business size is 1350 employees.

The proposed purchase order is being solicited on a sole-source basis to Dytran Instruments, Inc. The proposed action is for testing sensors, for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source pursuant to FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii). The basis for restricting competition is for the following reasons: Dytran is the only source of the required items, with no compatible material on the market.

The NSWCCD intends to award a firm fixed-price purchase order to Dytran Instruments, Inc. using Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Interested parties may identify their interest to this requirement by submitting a capabilities statement no later than 11:59AM 10 June 2024. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received by 11:59AM on 06/10/2024 will be considered by the Government.

A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed purchase order based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Inquiries should be directed to both Michael Bonaiuto at michael.bonaiuto@navy.mil.
