About this opportunity

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) Aircraft Division at Patuxent River has issued Amendment 01 to a Notice of Intent for a sole source bridge contract award to Precise Systems, Inc. This Special Notice is informational only and is not a request for competitive proposals. The notice stems from a GAO protest situation and pertains to program management services for the H-60 Multi-Mission Helicopter Program Office, PMA-299. The contracting authority is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, citing that only one responsible source exists and that awarding to any other contractor would cause unacceptable delays. Amendment 01 specifically updates the bridge contract periods of performance from the original structure.

The primary purpose of this bridge contract is to ensure uninterrupted program management services for the H-60 Multi-Mission Helicopter Program during the resolution of the GAO protest. The amended contract structure now includes a three-month base period followed by three one-month option periods, replacing the original one-month base with two one-month options. While not seeking competitive proposals, the government allows interested parties to submit information demonstrating their interest and technical capabilities by 2:00 PM Eastern Time on October 16, 2025, via email to the specified contracting officers. The government retains sole discretion in determining whether to proceed with competition based on any responses received and will not reimburse parties for costs associated with preparing documentation. The contract falls under engineering services (NAICS 541330) and professional program management support (PSC R408).
