PIF V22 B2C MCOI Project

Synopsis and Intent to Sole Source PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The U.S. Army Futures Command, Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Aviation and Missile Center (AvMC), Prototype Integration Facility (PIF), at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, issues this synopsis in accordance with FAR Part 5.203.

The Government intends to issue an award on a sole source basis for a firm-fixed price (FFP) delivery order to Honeywell, Inc. to supply Environmental Control Units, Flow Control Valves, and Environmental Control System (ECS) Controllers to be fielded as part of the V-22 B2C MCOI Upgrade in Huntsville, Alabama. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302-1(a).

The Contracting Officer determined that Honeywell is the only sources that can reasonably meet the Government’s requirement in accordance with Title 10 U.S.C.

Section 3204(a)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2)(i), “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.” The only known capable source with the proprietary data necessary to procure these items of supply is the Original Equipment Manufacturer, Honeywell, Inc. The Government does not have access to or rights in this proprietary data sufficient to compete this requirement.

The Government intends to award a purchase order to Honeywell. This synopsis is not a competitive request for proposals; however, the Army will consider capable parties who submit capability statements that clearly show that it currently possesses or has authorized access to the necessary proprietary data, or has a viable plan to obtain, generate, or otherwise secure authorized access to the necessary proprietary data from Honeywell. The Government will consider any capability statements received within fifteen days after date of publication of this synopsis.
