About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for solicitation W91CRB-25-R-5002 issued by the U.S. Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground, dated December 18, 2024. The document addresses two questions regarding the procurement of AN/PVS-7 Night Vision Image Intensifier Tubes (IITs).

The Q&A confirms this is a new contract with no incumbent for the hardware listed in SOW paragraph 3.1.1. It also clarifies that Gen2+ tubes offered by Chinese company LinduNV are not acceptable, as the requirement specifically calls for Gen 3 P45 (white phosphor film) FOM 2000 (P/N MX-10130) tubes. The document reinforces that items cannot be acquired from Communist Chinese military companies per clause 252.225-7007. The due date for offers remains unchanged from the original solicitation.

RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS – SOLICITATION W91CRB-25-R-5002

KS-B-ZJP

QUESTION #1: We would like to know if this is a brand new contract OR if there is (was) an incumbent performing these services.

If not brand new, could you please provide the current / previous contract number?

ANSWER: This is a new contract for the hardware listed in Statement of Work (SOW) paragraph 3.1.1.

QUESTION #2: China company “LinduNV” confirmed that Gen3 tube is commercial forbidden in China.

So they offered alternative Gen2 as attached. Could you please confirm if we submit a quote with MX10130 FOM2000 Gen2+ P45 white phosphor tube?

ANSWER: According to the SOW, the requirement for the AN/PVS-7 Night Vision Image Intensifier Tubes (IITs) is Gen 3 P45 (white phosphor film) FOM 2000 (P/N MX-10130). Therefore, MX10130 FOM2000 Gen2+ P45 white phosphor tube does not meet the country’s requirements and will not be technically acceptable. In addition, the contract clause 252.225-7007 (page 4 of the solicitation # W91CRB-25-R-5002) states: “the Contractor shall ensure that all items delivered under this contract are not acquired, directly or indirectly, from a Communist Chinese military company. The Contractor shall verify the source of all items and provide documentation, upon request, to demonstrate compliance with this clause.”

Date Offers Due: unchanged.
