The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to negotiate and award a sole source Delivery Order (DO) under Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N0001926G1008 with General Atomics (GA), San Diego, CA, for a procurement to incorporate the MQ-25 into the baseline software for Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) and Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) in support of Ford-Class Aircraft Carriers. The tasks cover modeling and simulation, control system settings development, software development and release, correction of deficiencies, test support, data analysis, meetings, schedules, and logistics updates. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.103-1, “only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.” As the sole designer, developer and manufacturer of the EMALS and AAG system, GA is the only responsible source with the unique knowledge, experience, special skills, facilities, manufacturing techniques, and technical data required to fulfill this requirement. Award to any other source would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. Further, NAVAIR does not have an adequate technical data package suitable for a competitive procurement of the anticipated efforts required. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities should directly contact Zach Baur, Small Business Liaison for General Atomics via e-mail: SB4GA@ga.com or Phone: (858) 455-2603. Capability statements received by the close of the synopsis may be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. There is no commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation, make an award, or be responsible for any money expended by interested parties before award of a contract for the effort described above. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit for or award a contract.
