This opportunity is for the repair of a SWITCH MATRIX, COMMS item for the U.S. Navy, with the contractor responsible for full teardown, evaluation, and firm-fixed-price repair. The required repair turn-around time (RTAT) is 38 days, and the vendor must submit a teardown and evaluation quote within 90 days of receiving the carcass. A one-year warranty from date of delivery is required, and an option for increased quantity may be exercised within 365 days of award. Offerors must be authorized distributors of the original manufacturer and provide proof on company letterhead, with exceptions to packaging or inspection requirements stated at quote time. The contract will be DO-certified for national defense under the DPAS priority system.

The government intends to award a sole-source contract for one unit of a specific part, with delivery FOB origin. It does not own the data or rights needed to repair the part from other sources, and obtaining that data or reverse engineering has been deemed uneconomical. Interested responsible sources may submit capability statements or proposals within 45 days of publication (or 30 days if an existing Basic Ordering Agreement applies). This notice is not a request for competitive proposals, but the government will consider responses solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
