About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground has issued a Special Notice of Intent to award a sole source purchase order to Airborne Systems North America (ASNA) for 100 T-11 CCI Test Assets. This notice is not a solicitation or request for competitive proposals, but rather an announcement that the Product Manager Soldier Clothing and Individual Equipment (PdM-SCIE) intends to procure these specialized parachute components without competition. The procurement involves T-11 main canopy assemblies with harness that will be used as live jump testing assets to address an infrequent safety issue with irregular parachute deployment. The contracting opportunity falls under NAICS code 314999 (All Other Miscellaneous Textile Product Mills) with a size standard of 500 employees and Product Service Code 1670 for parachute-related equipment.
The sole source justification stems from ASNA being the original equipment manufacturer of the T-11 parachute system and the only entity capable of providing the necessary design enhancements to address identified safety concerns. While the government holds Government Purpose rights to the basic T-11 Technical Data, it does not possess rights to the specific design modifications proposed by ASNA, making the company the only responsible source for this requirement. Interested parties have fifteen calendar days from the August 19, 2025 publication date to submit responses demonstrating their capability and providing clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. Any responses received will be evaluated solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted, though the final decision to maintain sole source procurement remains at the government's discretion.
