Synopsis:

Army Contracting Command - Warren (ACC-WRN) intends to solicit a sole source, firm-fixed price, long-term contract under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements) for the Husky 2nd Generation (2G) Vehicle Mounted Mine Detection (VMMD), new production sub-systems, spare parts, storage, and tools and diagnostic equipment.

The proposed contract action is for the following items and quantities:
Husky 2G 60 ea, 360 Degree Cam 60 ea, Q-Net RPG Net 60 ea, Initial Service Pack (ISP) 60 ea, Bluepack 15 ea, Redpack 30 ea, 360 Degree Cam Spares 12 ea, Q-Net Spares 12 ea, Vehile Tools & Diagnostic Equip 12 ea, Self Defense Remotely Operated Weapon Station (SDROW) 15 ea, SDROW Spare Parts 3 pg, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) 18 ea, Spare Parts GPR 6 pg, 2 year of Containerized Storage 24 months.

The Government does not currently have a competitive Technical Data Package (TDP), which is required to manufacture the Husky 2G. The primary mission of the Husky is to provide protected payload in route clearance operations in urban or combined areas that include mounted patrols, reconnaissance, security, convoy protection, communications, command and control, explosive ordinance disposal (EOD) operations, and combat service support for FMS customers.

The NAICS code for this acquisition is 336999. The inspection/acceptance and FOB points are all "Destination".

Although it is the Government's intent to solicit and negotiate with only one source. Critical Solutions International (Cage Code 1N5S7), all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency.
