Notice of Intent - Sole Source - Stave Repair

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for Twisted Bicone Array (TBCA) stave assemblies repair.  The NAICS code is 541330 and the Product/Service Code is J052.

The proposed purchase order is being solicited on a sole-source basis to Sonatech.  The proposed action is for stave assemblies repair for which the Government intends to solicit with only one source pursuant to FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i).  The basis for restricting competition is for the following reason: Sonatech is the proprietary designer and fabricator of these staves.  The NSWCCD intends to award a firm fixed-price purchase order to Sonatech using Simplified Acquisition Procedures.

Interested parties may identify their interest to this requirement by submitting a capabilities statement no later than January 6, 2022.  This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive quotes.  However, all responses received by January 14, 2022 at 2:00 PM EST will be considered by the Government.  Any questions must be received via e-mail by January 7, 2022 at 2:00 PM EST.  A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed purchase order based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.  Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
