About this opportunity

The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Lakehurst, NJ intends to negotiate a sole source Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with Textron Systems Corporation for calibration, testing, and repair of Boresight Support Equipment. The specific equipment includes AH-1Z Special Purpose Boresight Adapter Set, Advanced Boresight Equipment (ABE) Model 310, Cockpit Tracking Module (CTM) Adapter Set, and H-1 Cockpit Mapping Boresight Adapter Set. The procurement is critical for validating AH-1Z aircraft before delivery to the government. The contract will be awarded under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which allows for sole source procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. Responses to the pre-solicitation notice must be submitted via email to Trevor Greig by March 25, 2025 at 2:00 PM EDT, with the government considering all responses received within 15 days of publication.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designation for this contract opportunity. Textron Systems Corporation is positioned as the sole manufacturer and developer of the required equipment, holding proprietary rights to the technical data necessary for calibration, alignment, and repair. The contract falls under NAICS Category 811210 for Electronic and Precision Equipment Repair and Maintenance, with a Product Service Code (PSC) of J049 for maintenance and repair shop equipment. While specific award values are not disclosed, the BOA will enable NAWCAD to procure essential boresight support equipment calibration services. The procurement process allows the government to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses received, though the current indication is for a direct award to Textron Systems Corporation.
