About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground has issued a Special Notice for A25K Test Assets, indicating an intent to award a sole source purchase order to Airborne Systems North America (ASNA). The notice specifically relates to procurement of 10 main canopy assemblies for continuing testing on RA-1 GM prototype canopies. The government previously acquired Government Purpose rights to T-11 Technical Data from ASNA, but the current Technical Data Package lacks government purpose rights for T-11 design enhancements. As a result, ASNA is identified as the only responsible source capable of satisfying the government's requirements. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 314999 with a size standard of 500 and uses Product Service Code 1670 for parachutes and aerial systems.

Contractors interested in this opportunity have 15 calendar days from the publication date to demonstrate their capability and interest in responding to the requirement. Any response must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. The government retains sole discretion in determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on received responses. No reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with submitting capability information. Interested parties should contact Sara Robbins at sara.l.robbins3.civ@army.mil, referencing the Notice of Intent number in all correspondence. The notice will close on January 27, 2025, at 5:00 pm EST. While this is technically a Notice of Intent and not a formal solicitation, it represents an opportunity for potential contractors to express their capabilities and interest in the proposed contract.
