About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to award a sole source Job Order under a Basic Ordering Agreement to Raytheon Company for sustainment of Multi-Mission Optical Sensor (MMOS) and MTS Pedestal Enclosure System (MPES). The procurement focuses on program management, engineering support, operations, training, and supply chain risk management for deployed optical sensor and pedestal systems. NAVSEA is invoking FAR 6.302-1 to limit competition, citing Raytheon as the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer with unique technical qualifications and engineering expertise. The government will consider capability statements or proposals from other sources, but retains sole discretion to proceed with the sole source determination. Interested parties must submit responses by April 11, 2024, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time, with questions directed to Allyson Nicholson at the provided contact information.
The procurement is not set aside for any specific category of business, and the solicitation will not be posted on SAM.gov due to its sole source nature. Raytheon will receive the Request for Proposal directly via email, with the contract anticipated to be awarded under FAR Part 15 negotiation procedures. Contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible. While specific award value is not disclosed, the contract encompasses comprehensive support for existing optical sensor systems, including hardware and software maintenance, operations support, and future development. The proposed noncompetitive action is justified by Raytheon's unique technical data, engineering expertise, and aircraft integration knowledge that cannot be replicated by alternative sources without significant cost and potential operational delays.

N0016424RJQ19 – Job Order 0001 – SOLE SOURCE - Multi-Mission Optical Sensor (MMOS) and MTS Pedestal Enclosure System (MPES) Operations, Maintenance and future development, FSC – J016 – NAICS 334511
Issue Date: 11 MARCH 2024 – Closing Date: 11 APRIL 2024 – 3:00PM EASTERN TIME
A solicitation will NOT be posted to https://www.sam.gov due to the sole source nature of this requirement.
ITEM DESCRIPTION: Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane intends to award a Job Order (JO) under Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N0016424GJQ19 for sustainment to include Program Management (PMO) and engineering support for current equipment (hardware and software), support for operations, training, and supply chain risk management (SCRM) for deployed Multi-Mission Optical Sensor (MMOS) and MTS Pedestal Enclosure System (MPES) systems. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source, Raytheon Company, 1100 Wilson Blvd Ste 2000, Arlington, Virginia 22209, under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. (U.S.C. 3204(a)(1)). The basis for restricting competition is the lack of sufficient technical data, duplicative cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, and the unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency requirement through any other source.
Raytheon is the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer, and is the only source that currently possesses sufficient requisite knowledge, engineering expertise, aircraft integration information, and technical data required to perform these efforts. No other source has the technical qualification and necessary resources to neither supply the requirement described herein, nor will any other supplies or services satisfy the Government'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 announcement 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. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Raytheon Company directly.
Request for Proposal (RFP) will not be made available through https://www.sam.gov. The RFP will be provided to directly to Raytheon Company through electronic mail. The proposed noncompetitive contract action is anticipated to be awarded under FAR Part 15, contracting by negotiations.
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.
Questions or inquiries should be directed to Allyson Nicholson, Code 0231, telephone 812-381-4846, email: Allyson.d.nicholson.civ@us.navy.mil. Please reference the above solicitation number when responding to this notice.
