FlexTest 40 Controller

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for Flextest controller and installation. The compliant material is available solely from MTS Systems Corporation, as the required service can only be provided through MTS. The NAICS code is 334519 and the business size is 600 employees. The proposed purchase order is being solicited on a sole-source basis to MTS.

The proposed action is for Flextest controller equipment and services, 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: MTS is the only source of the required service, with no other source on the market. The NSWCCD intends to award a firm fixed-price purchase order to MTS Systems Corporation using Simplified Acquisition Procedures.

Interested parties may identify their interest to this requirement by submitting a capabilities statement no later than 12:00 noon 22 July 2025. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received by 12:00PM on 07/22/2025 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.j.bonaiuto.civ@us.navy.mil.
