presolicitation

Prospective

Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Patuxent, River, MD requires FortiNet FortiGate software license renewals to support the communications security for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft. These license subscription renewals are for continued support and services for these devices to meet security communication requirements. NAVAIR, Patuxent River, MD intends to issue a contract on a limited competition basis with FortiNet's authorized Federal resellers. Under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), FAR 6.302-1, Fortinet is the developer of the FortiGate appliance, software, anti-virus and intrusion protection files, and technical support. The Government does not possess the technical data package required for the FortiGate firewall. FortiNet's authorized Federal resellers are the only responsible sources capable to provide the required licenses and support for the FortiGate Firewall currently installed and tested on the P-8A aircraft; therefore, they are the only vendors capable of meeting the Government requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, the Government will consider all responses received within 15 days after the date of publication of this synopsis. Information received as a result of this notice of intent will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a full and open competitive requirement. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to full and open competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Responses should reference N00019-26-RFPREQ-APM290-0806, and shall be submitted electronically to Contract Specialist, Frank Schibler, at frank.e.schibler.civ@us.navy.mil with the subject line "P-8A FortiNet FortiGate License Subscriptions Renewal". All responses should be received no later than 4:00 PM Eastern, 10 June 2026.
