About this opportunity
The Naval Air Systems Command published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice to award a sole source contract to Raytheon BBN Technologies Corporation. The contract is for software design, development, and improvement services for the Ground Replay System engineering tool, which is used for high-fidelity mission reconstruction of P-8A maritime patrol aircraft sorties. It was determined that no other contractor could perform the work without significant cost and schedule impacts due to Raytheon BBN's proprietary source code and experience developing the required system. The one base year and four option year contract, valued at $14.15 million, was awarded on June 5, 2020 to ensure the Ground Replay System remains synchronized with evolving aircraft acoustic capabilities.
Notice text
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) awarded contract N00019-20-C-0628 to Raytheon BBN Technologies Corporation, 10 Moulton Street, Cambridge, MA 02138-119 for the procurement of software design, development, and improvement of the Ground Replay System (GRS) engineering tool, which is used for high-fidelity mission reconstruction of P-8A sorties. The period of performance is one base year and four option years. This contract was awarded to Raytheon BBN in the amount of $2,727,341, with an overall value of $14,150,016 including options.
This acquisition was conducted on a sole-source basis under statutory authority of Title 10, U.S.C. Section 2304(c)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." A determination by the Government not to compete this effort is solely within the discretion of the Government. This effort is covered under the Justification and Approval (J&A) number 19-480, 7 October 2020, attached.
It was determined that a CPFF contract action was the appropriate contract type pursuant to DFARS 235.006(b)(ii)(A). This is a development program for which the use of a fixed-price type contract would not provide an equitable and sensible allocation of program risk between the Government and the Contractor due to the continuously evolving nature of the P-8A acoustic platform capabilities with which the GRS software must remain synchronized with.
Awarded contract N00019-20-C-0628 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2020-06-05.
