About this opportunity

Strategic Systems Programs (SSP), Department of the Navy, intends to solicit and negotiate a sole-source contract with Lockheed Martin Corporation (Titusville, Florida) for engineering and technical services supporting the Trident II (D5LE) Missile and Reentry Subsystems and the Common Missile Compartment for the COLUMBIA-class submarine, with responses due by May 22, 2026.

SSP plans to award a Cost-Plus Fixed Fee, Level-of-Effort contract with performance from March 1, 2027 through February 28, 2032. The procurement is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) (FAR 6.302-1) on the basis that Lockheed is the only responsible source with the direct critical experience, expertise, personnel, and in-depth knowledge of the Trident program required. SSP asserts that extensive additional training would be required to position another contractor at Lockheed's level of expertise and that no other contractor possesses Lockheed's established methodology and program history. Security clearance is required.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responses received within fifteen days of publication will be considered by the Government; the determination whether to open the requirement to competition based on those responses remains solely within the Government's discretion. Information provided in response will normally be considered only to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

Notice text

Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) and negotiate a contract on a sole-source basis with Lockheed Martin Corporation (Lockheed) of Titusville, Florida, to provide highly specialized Engineering and Technical Services to support Trident II (D5LE) Missile and Reentry Subsystems in support of the construction of the Common Missile Compartment for the COLUMBIA class submarine.  This effort requires comprehensive Technical and Program Management Services in support of the Trident II (D5LE) Missile System integration, support equipment, and experimental vehicles for the CMC. It would take an extensive amount of additional training to position another contractor at the level of Lockheed’s expertise. Moreover, the contractor would lack the methodology and history, of which Lockheed has.  Consequently, SSP intends to solicit and negotiate per the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) (FAR Subsection 6.302-1 – Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements).

SSP anticipates to award a Cost-Plus Fixed Fee, Level-of-Effort (CPFF-LOE) and Completion Term Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINS).  The performance of the Contract will be from 1 March 2027 – 28 February 2032. Security Clearance Required. Lockheed is the only known source with the direct critical experience, expertise, personnel, and in-depth knowledge of the TRIDENT program required to perform the subject effort.

THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS.  However, all responses received within fifteen (15) days of the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received as a result of the notice of intent will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
