The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to solicit a proposal from Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (SAC), a Lockheed Martin Company, of 6900 Main St. Stratford, CT 06615-9129, under Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-19-G-0029, on an other than full and open competitive basis to support the mission of PMA 261 CH-53K Heavy Lift Helicopters. The subsequent request for proposal will be issued as a Delivery Order under the BOA in support of the H-53K Aviation Logistics Environment (ALE), FY22 Sustainment effort, to continue maintenance of all processes and interfaces under the Aviation Logistics Environment (ALE) as currently contracted under LRIP Lot 2 A3. The H-53 ALE is comprised of the Sikorsky Ground Based Application (SGBA), Maintenance Data Interface (MDI), and Integrated Support System (ISS), collectively known as the Integrated Computing Platform (ICP). The effort shall be procured on a sole source basis under NAICS 336413 – Other Aircraft Parts and Auxillary Equipment Manufacturing and PSC 1680 (Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories and Components ) pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Type of Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements." SAC is the sole designer, developer and manufacturer of the H-53 airframe, as well as the sole integrator of the avionics and weapons systems, and therefore is the only contractor with the requisite knowledge, experience, and technical data that can meet the Government's requirements on a timely basis. Subcontracting opportunities shall be submitted directly to Jason Lockwood, Sikorsky Subcontracting Manager, at 203-225-3657.
