About this opportunity
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center published a Special Notice announcing a sole source contract for a TLD TMX-50-4 Aircraft Tractor. The Notice indicates NASA's intent to award a contract to TLD America Corporation under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) as the sole provider of the specified tractor model.
The Special Notice provides interested contractors until January 31, 2024 to submit capabilities and qualifications to NASA to be considered for conducting the procurement through full and open competition instead of sole source award. However, the Notice emphasizes NASA's discretion to determine whether competition is warranted based on responses. The tractor must meet specifications for towing the X-59 aircraft at NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center with delivery within 32 weeks, as outlined in the attached Statement of Work. Eligible contractors may submit written statements of their ability to fulfill the requirement by the stated deadline for consideration, though sole source award to TLD America Corporation appears to be the intended approach.
