The Contractor shall provide Energetics industrial operations services support the GOCO facilities at NIROP ABL located at Rocket Center, WV, and NWIRP Bedford, MA. This effort is aligned with the Industrial Operations mission to improve infrastructure management practices of the ashore industrial base under NAVSEA cognizance. Services under this effort will support business management initiatives, workforce planning, and industrial operation requirements. Industrial operations specifically include services supporting Government-Owned/Contractor-Operated (GOCO) facilities at the Naval Industrial Reserve Ordnance Plant (NIROP) Allegany Ballistics Laboratory (ABL) located at Rocket Center, WV, and Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant (NWIRP) Bedford, MA. These services will assist NAVSEA Program Managers with technical and administrative services in support of the Industrial Operations mission. NAVSEA intends to award a sole-source contract to the incumbent contractor, Dextera Corporation, in order to allow the Government time to adequately compete the requirement for a follow-on contract. NAVSEA intends to compete a follow-on requirement via SEAPORT. Dextera Corporation was previously awarded the current contract as an 8(a) set aside as part of the 8(a) BD Program. Dextera Corporation graduated from 8(a) status thereby making them ineligible to receive a follow-on contract. NAVSEA conducted a sources sought under public announcement N00024-20-R-4001 for potential 8(a) contractors to continue this effort. NAVSEA received numerous responses from designated 8(a) contractors. NAVSEA determined no 8(a) contractors were deemed able to execute the requirement. NAVSEA issued another sources sought via SEAPORT to again seek potential 8(a) contractors to continue this effort. NAVSEA again determined no 8(a) contractors were deemed able to execute this requirement. NAVSEA then requested, and received approval to remove this requirement from the 8(a) DB program. A sole source contract will be made due to unacceptable delays that have occurred and the NAVSEA need for continuation of contractor performance of this requirement which resulted from the time required to make a determination that no 8(a) contractor is capable of executing this follow-on requirement and the time required to release this requirement from the 8(a) DB Program and competitively award a follow-on contract. THIS SYNOPSIS IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY.
