Upgrade to Special Operations Aircraft

U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) anticipates contracting on a sole source basis with The Boeing Company, 5000 East McDowell Road, Mesa, AZ 85215 for upgrades to the 160th Special Operations Airborne Regiment (SOAR(A)) aircraft. The proposed action will be processed as a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract for items and services which the Government does not own specifications and drawings to permit full and open competition. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 6.302.1. Firms that recognize and can provide the supplies are encouraged to identify themselves. This notice of intent is not a request for a competitive proposal; however, the Government will consider all proposals received by the specified due date IAW FAR 5.203 (a). A determination by the Government not to compete this acquisition is solely within the discretion of the Government. The North American Industrial Classification Code is 336413; the business size is 1000 employees. The estimated date of the solicitation is on or about July 2013.
