About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command's F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) is seeking consulting services from MATEC to support propulsion production contract negotiations. The intent is to sole source a contract for consulting expertise in proposal evaluation, cost analysis, price analysis, and negotiation support for ongoing JPO contract negotiations. The statutory authority for this sole source procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which allows for procurement from the only responsible source that can satisfy agency requirements. Interested vendors must submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations by February 11th, 2025, at 5:00 PM Eastern Time via email to Ethan.Urey@jsf.mil. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 541611 for Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services.

The contract is not set aside for any specific business category and will have a one-year base performance period, with an anticipated award date in Q1 of Calendar Year 2025. MATEC is being selected as the sole source contractor due to their unique knowledge and expertise in supporting the F-35 JPO's propulsion production team, specifically for finalizing Propulsion lots 18-19 contract negotiations. The government retains full discretion to compete or not compete the proposed contract based on responses to this notice. Export-controlled data associated with the F-35 JPO means the opportunity is not available to foreign sources or representatives. No reimbursement will be provided to vendors for information submitted in response to this pre-solicitation notice.
