About this opportunity

This Special Notice is issued by the Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC) for a limited source contract to Systems Technology Inc. for upgrades to the existing ParaSim virtual reality parachute simulator system.

The purpose of this notice is to inform interested vendors that AFGSC intends to award a sole-source order to Systems Technology Inc. for the ParaSim hardware and software upgrades, as they are the sole owner of all patent, proprietary, and engineering rights to the system. AFGSC is accepting quotes from interested vendors by September 4, 2024 at 2:00 PM CDT, but a competitive procurement is solely at the Government's discretion. The acquisition is set aside for small businesses, and the NAICS code is 333310 - Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing.

Notice text

THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A LIMITED SOURCE ORDER AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. IAW FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(B), "Only one source is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services are unique or highly specialized." The Government intends to award an order on a limited source basis, to Systems Technology Inc. for ParaSim hardware and software upgrades to the existing system. Systems Technology Inc. has provided documentation that it is the sole owner of all patent, proprietary and engineering rights to PARASIM; they do not utilize distributors, brokers, outside service providers, outside installers, or resellers; and utilization of a third party would result in breach of warranty.

A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
