AMS Support Services

The Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center has published a Special Notice seeking information and sources for AMS Support Services at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland. This notice serves as a combination Request for Information, Sources Sought, and Notice of Intent for comprehensive support services related to the Acquisition Management System (AMS) applications, Knowledge Management System (KMS) portal, and associated software application interfaces. The requirement involves continuous analysis, design, development, testing, deployment, sustainment, upgrade, management, evaluation, and oversight of these critical systems within the Procurement Group, Acquisition Technology Division. The government intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Precise Systems, Inc., located in Lexington Park, Maryland, under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(B) authority. The procurement falls under NAICS code 541511 for Custom Computer Programming Services.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the government's intent to sole source this requirement while providing an opportunity for interested parties to submit comments by August 1, 2025. The government justifies the sole source approach by stating that Precise Systems possesses the requisite skillset to perform without unacceptable delays and is currently providing support for the AMS applications and KMS portal as subject matter experts. The contractor must be capable of meeting current tasking needs within the allotted timeframe to avoid service gaps and achieve full audit readiness for NAVAIR and Navy customers. While this is not a request for competitive proposals, interested parties may submit written comments to Contract Specialist Elizabeth Chandler via email. The services encompass full lifecycle software development, configuration management, application enhancement, cloud and AI integration, DevSecOps, security controls, and operational support for web-based acquisition management software applications that standardize program, project, and procurement management tasks across naval and defense organizations.
