6 each Slide Assembly (LH) Model 1507151-L; 6 each Slide Assembly (RH) Model: 1507151-R; 10 each Slide Assembly (LH) Model: 1311023-L and 10 each Slide Assembly (RH) Model: 1311023-R.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Panama City, FL (NSWC PC) intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order using simplified acquisition procedures to Jonathan Engineered Solutions of Irvine CA for the following items: 6 each Slide Assembly (LH) Model# 1507151-L; 6 each Slide Assembly (RH) Model#: 1507151-R; 10 each Slide Assembly (LH) Model#: 1311023-L and 10 each Slide Assembly (RH) Model#: 1311023-R. This purchase is not suitable for full and open competition for the following reasons. These items are designed into the Multi-Vehicle Communication System (MVCS) equipment tactical racks. The slides were designed by Jonathan Engineered Solutions to meet critical system requirements, interfaces and are the only configuration approved for use.

Currently, no other source meets the form, fit, function, and interchangeability requirements for the MVCS equipment tactical racks without redesign of the slide assemblies. Other slide assemblies would require development and extensive engineering and environmental testing efforts, which would not meet the known deliverable dates for procurement. Therefore, it is in the Government’s best interest to purchase these items from Jonathan Engineered Solutions.
