Description:
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Lakehurst, NJ intends to negotiate on a non-competitive basis with NexGen Communications, LLC for the acquisition of the following items: Antenna Assemblies - part numbers 570557G1, 570556G1, 570528G1; and Auxiliary Electronic Components - part numbers 70228-70, 570551G1, 572290P3, 574800G1, 0000701013G1, 572270G1.

The proposed contract action is for supplies for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

No contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice.

A determination not to compete this requirement is within the discretion of the Government. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in a future competition.
