Pre-solicitation Notice The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), Special Operation Forces (SOF), Acquisition Technology and Logistics (AT&L), Technology Applications Program Office (TAPO) intends to solicit and negotiate with one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 for the procurement of A/MH-6 Aircraft Engineering and Technical Support Services. Per FAR 6.302-1(b)(2)(ii), Supplies may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of a follow-on contract for the continued development or production of a major system or highly specialized equipment, including major components thereof, when it is likely that award to any other source would result in (1) substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, or (2) unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. (See 10 U.S.C. 3304(b)(2) or 41 U.S.C. 253 (d)(1)(B). The intended source for this procurement is The Boeing Company, 5000 East McDowell Road, Mesa Arizona 85215-9707 CAGE: 8V613, as the only available source who can support the A/MH-6 rotorcraft platform to provide technical support services and continuing advancement. The intended award will result in a Cost Reimbursable Plus Fixed Fee, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract. The IDIQ will consist of one (1) five-year ordering period. The agency has tentatively assigned North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 541330 – Engineering Services, to the requirement, but interested sources can recommend other NAICS Codes for agency consideration. Small Business Size Standard: $25.5M. The Contractor shall furnish the personnel, facilities, equipment, and materials necessary to perform the engineering and technical services involving efforts related to the A/MH-6 Aircraft. The Contractor shall provide engineering and technical services associated with rotorcraft programs that encompass the following tasks: (1) Engineering and Analysis (2) Test and Evaluation Support and (3) other Technical Services. The specific effort to be performed by the Contractor shall be defined by individual Task Orders. A sources sought notice was publicized as required by DFARS 206.302-1(d) on 17 May 2024. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all capabilities statements or proposals received within the closing date set in this synopsis will be considered by the Government. The interested source bears the burden of substantiating its proposed system and engineering services meet the Government’s requirements without substantially duplicating the cost and schedule already incurred for development and qualification of the A/MH-6 aviation platform. The Government does not have a complete set of technical data to support a competitive procurement of these required services. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. All interested, capable, and responsible sources that would like to respond to this pre-solicitation synopsis are encouraged to provide a statement of interest along with supporting documentation to Mr. Jared A. Mitchell, jared.a.mitchell.civ@socom.mil and Mr. Ryan S. Edmonds, ryan.s.edmonds.civ@socom.mil, no later than 11:30 AM, EST 27 December 2024.
