Issue Date: 19 December 2022 - Closing Date: 6 January 2023 -12:00PM Eastern

ITEM DESCRIPTION- Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a requirement for on-site field service representatives (FSRs) and off-site Engineering Support of the AN/ALQ-249 NGJ-MB. These services shall be provided at Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River, Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, NAS Whidbey Island, the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) base in Amberley, Queensland, Australia, on-board United States Navy Aircraft Carriers, as well as at Expeditionary Sites located in any Combatant Command and other areas of responsibility, including Theater of Operations. The Contractor shall provide on-site FSRs with the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to support the operation, installation, modification, maintenance, fault location, and maintainer training of the AN/ALQ-249 weapons system and subsystems. The FSR shall serve as an integral part of the Fleet Support Team in-service infrastructure at Government & RAAF sites. 

SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT - The proposed contract action is for the services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source, Raytheon Company, 2000 East El Segundo, CA 90245-3507 under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(l), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii), only one responsible source. The requirement is being solicited on a sole source basis because no other source than Raytheon Company has the proprietary data required to provide system support of the end items satisfying the agency's requirements. Utilizing another source would result in significant duplication of costs and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements.

All responsible sources may submit a capability statement or proposal which shall be considered by the agency. However, a determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of re-evaluating the justification for sole source or limitation of sources and making a determination to change the acquisition strategy to a competitive procurement. A formal solicitation will not be posted to the SAM.gov website and is only available from the POC identified below.

Contractors must be properly registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). Offerors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation requirements by calling 1-866-606-8220 or via the internet at https://www.sam.gov.
