Naval Air Systems Command intends to negotiate and award a sole source contract modification to Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) for a Field Service Representative (FSR). The FSR will provide 24/7 world-wide telephonic technical assistance in the resolution of fielded system problems related to the troubleshooting, maintenance, or operation of installed Harvest Hercules Airborne Weapons Kit (HAWK) Plus (HH+) weapons, sensor, network, processing, and communications equipment. The Government intends to award a sole source acquisition under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements." SNC is the sole system designer for the KC-130J HH+ Mission Operator Pallet (MOP) including design of the system mission software called Burma. Intimate familiarity with the SNC Burma software and MOP hardware architecture is critical to HH+ MOP restoration to full functionality after a system failure. The FSR will require internal access via the Burma software to isolate the problems associated with system faults. Access to this software is proprietary in nature and only available to SNC. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties, however, may identify their interest and capability by responding to this requirement. The Government will consider all capability information received prior to the closing date of this synopsis. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract modification based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. No phone inquiries will be entertained. Reponses shall be made in writing, by email or US mail, to the attention of Karamie Platt using the contact information provided in this synopsis. Unless otherwise stated herein, no additional written information is available.
