The notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.

A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered for the purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive requirement in the future. Summary of the rationelle to pursue a sole source procurement is as follows:

Applied Systems Engineering, Inc. (ASE) is the Original Equipment Manufacture (OEM) of the Model 327X Magnetron and Model 327Ku Magnetron transmitters. As the owner of the transmitter’s intellectual property and proprietary information, ASE is the only vendor capable of conducting an accurate evaluation of the transmitter and providing NUWCDIVNPT a valid quote for the necessary repairs. ASE is also the only vendor capable of sourcing required replacement parts and equipment and repairing the transmitters. To consider a source other than ASE, repairs would not be possible, and 3 new replacement transmitters would have to be purchased at an expected cost of $360,000 ($120,000 per unit).
