About this opportunity
The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), Lakehurst, New Jersey intends to award a sole-source contract for P-8 peculiar support equipment, with a proposal or quotation deadline of October 23. The procurement invokes FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source) based on Boeing's refusal to license technical data to the Government and Industrial Automation's exclusive authorization as Boeing's support equipment vendor; this is not a competitive solicitation, and this is not a request for proposal.
Industrial Automation (CAGE 053H3) is the intended sole-source awardee. The procurement spans eight line items of ground support equipment, test equipment, handling equipment, protective covers, and cable assemblies for P-8 operations, identified by part numbers including GSE809-242A6010-3-STE, MC280005-1, MC280006-185, MC520002-45, C10004-2, 52561906, GSE809-8090, and C54009-27. Place of performance is Lakehurst, New Jersey. The NAICS code is 334515, Instrument Manufacturing for Measuring and Testing Electricity and Electrical Signals; the PSC is 4920, Aircraft Maintenance and Repair Shop Specialized Equipment. The Government will consider capability statements, proposals, or quotations from all responsible sources, though the sole-source rationale assumes Industrial Automation is the only vendor meeting the requirement.
