This is an "other than full and open" solicitation that will only consider vendors proposing the approved source of supply, which is Caton Connector Corporation.

The contract structure includes estimated annual demand quantities of 6, 14, 6, and 7 units respectively for the four cable assembly types, with a guaranteed minimum quantity to be specified in the final solicitation. The 5-year base contract period contains no option years, and the procurement may utilize a reverse auction process through the Procurex system. All contractors must meet stringent export control requirements including US/Canada Joint Certification Program certification and completion of specialized training before accessing technical data.
