About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM) has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source firm-fixed price contract to Airborne Systems North America of NJ Inc. located in Pennsauken, New Jersey. The contract pertains to the Parachute System 2 (PS-2) Drogue Release Modification, utilizing Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(b)(1)(ii) as the legal basis for the sole source procurement. This notice specifically targets modifications to an existing parachute system, with the contract falling under the NAICS category of All Other Miscellaneous Textile Product Mills (314999). The procurement is strictly for military equipment enhancement, focusing on specialized parachute system components. The notice was published on January 23, 2025, with a response deadline of February 7, 2025.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to procure a Complete Modified PS-2 and PS-2 Drogue Release Modification directly from Airborne Systems North America without a competitive bidding process. Contractors interested in understanding or challenging the sole source determination must submit any questions or concerns to Contract Specialist Anthony Plath, with a copy to Eric Daniels, within 15 days of the announcement. The contract is explicitly not a request for competitive proposals, and no solicitation will be issued beyond this notice. Eligibility is effectively limited to Airborne Systems North America, given the sole source designation. The procurement is scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2025 and is categorized under Product Service Code 1670 for parachutes and aerial systems. The size standard for potential contractors in this NAICS category is set at 550 employees, though in this instance, the contract is directed to a specific vendor.
