About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, specifically the Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Bath, Maine (SSBA), has issued a Special Notice announcing their intent to award a sole source contract to Advanced Test Equipment Corporation, a small business located in San Diego, California. The contract will be awarded under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures using other than full and open competition. The procurement involves four NARDA Broadband Field Meters and four NARDA 1MHz-18GHz E Field Probes for radiation measurement purposes. The notice is classified under NAICS code 334519 for Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing and PSC code 6625 for Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments. The contract action is set aside for total small business participation.

The primary purpose of this sole source award is to replace aging radiation survey equipment that is over 20 years old and has become unreliable, with one unit damaged beyond use and another having questionable accuracy. The Bath Aegis Test Team requires this equipment to measure radiation levels in high traffic areas to ensure personnel exposure remains within OSHA prescribed safety limits. The justification for sole source procurement is based on Advanced Test Equipment Corporation being the only authorized distributor in the United States for NARDA equipment. Interested parties may submit product information or express interest via email to the contracting officer by July 31, 2025, though this notice is not a request for quotation and no formal solicitation will be issued. The government retains full discretion in determining whether to proceed with competitive procurement based on any responses received.

The authority for soliciting a single source under simplified acquisition procedures is FAR 13.106-l(b)(l)(i), Soliciting Competition, which states that contracting officers may solicit from one source if the contracting officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand-name or industrial mobilization). The proposed contract action is Sole Source. In accordance with FAR 5.102, the required justification documentation is attached.

This Notice of Intent is not a request for quotation. No solicitation or RFQ will be forthcoming. Interested parties may identify their interest and submit product information in response to this notice via email to hannah.e.lavoie.civ@us.navy.mil. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract is entirely at the discretion of the Government. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
