The Department of Defense, through the NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support office, is planning to solicit a sole source contract with SIMMONDS PRECISION PRODUCTS for a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) concerning aircraft electronic components specifically for the V22 aircraft. The procurement focuses on an interface unit and a processor, which are critical components for the aircraft, and the government lacks the necessary data or drawings to source these parts from alternative suppliers. This contract, which will span five years, is governed by the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302, indicating that only one responsible source can fulfill the requirements, and interested parties must submit their capabilities within 15 days, with proposals accepted up to 45 days. For further inquiries, interested parties can contact Amanda Sweeney at 215-697-2198 or via email at AMANDA.SWEENEY@NAVY.MIL.
