Closed

The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Contracts Department, Patuxent River, MD in support of NAVAIR AB4, Air Systems Group - Air Vehicle Engineering, intends to negotiate and award, on a sole source basis, Cost Plus-Fixed Free (CPFF) C-Type Contract to with National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) located at Wichita State University, 1845 Fairmount St. #38, Wichita, KS, 67260 in support of the Polymers & Composites testing program. Services required coupon testing for qualification of the AMS 3970 composite material system for Naval Aviation relevant conditions. These coupons will be conditioned, tested, analyzed, and the data will be compiled into reports that include test data, test data analysis, statistical analysis, and development and approval of test plan and test report. These meet our needs for qualifying this material for NAVAIR composite repairs. The data and methods established through this testing will serve as the basis for composite repair standards. The proposed action is for services which the Government intends to procure under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) located at Wichita State University is uniquely qualified to provide the complete range of program support required for this effort and is also the only known firm to possess the technical data and specifications necessary to fulfill the Government requirements. To competitively procure the same service the Government would incur substantial delays to the program and substantial costs that could not be recovered through competition. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS; however, responsible interested parties may submit a statement in which they can identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement. The Government will consider all information received within 15 calendar days of this notice. A determination by the Government not to compete this procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not pay for any information received. No telephone responses will be accepted.
