Added: Aug 10, 2012 8:22 am This solicitation is being posted to both the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) page located at http://www.fbo.gov/ and the Navy Electronic Commerce on Line (NECO) site located at https://www.neco.navy.mil/. While it is understood that FBO is the single point of entry for posting of synopsis and solicitations to the internet, NECO is the alternative in case FBO is unavailable. Please feel free to use either site to access information posted by NSWC Crane.



This solicitation is being issued pursuant to the procedures at FAR 13. Synopsis exception FAR 5.202(a)(13) applies and Solicitation Number N00164-12-T-0229 is hereby issued as an attachment hereto.



Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a sole sourced requirement to Advanced Metrology Solutions 3493 Solutions Center Chicago, IL 60677-3004 for a Sheffield Endeavor 3 Plus 9.12.8 Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) that includes PC-DMIS CAD with DCC Scanning and auto path bundle, installation and training.

They own all proprietary design of the CMM and its design. The items required must meet existing form, fit, and function for existing fleet deployed systems. The Government does not have the level III drawing packages. The time, delay, cost to retool, reverse engineering, generating acceptance test procedures, and perform first article testing precludes the acceptance of an alternate source.
