Issue Date: 19 SEP 2019 - Closing Date: 23 SEP 2019 02:00 PM Eastern Standard Time
ITEM DESCRIPTION- Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a requirement for Infrared Imager equipment.
FOR SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT- The proposed contract action is for the supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source, FLIR Commercial Systems, Inc. at 9 Townsend West, Nashua, NH 03063 Cage Code 6GY45 under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Service Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This is being sole sourced because to make a change would cost the Government an additional (estimated) $50K in revisions, coding and validations. This would also delay the project by at least six months. This cost in terms of funding and time delay would not be recouped via competition. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement which shall be considered by the agency. However, a determination by the Government not to compete with 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 determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
