The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source for 140 units of a specific part, citing proprietary data rights and economic impracticality. The delivery location is Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine. While this is a notice of intent and not a formal competitive request, the Government will consider any capability statements or proposals received within 45 days of the synopsis publication. Interested parties may also identify their capability to meet the requirement with a commercial item within 15 days. Some items under this acquisition may be subject to Free Trade Agreement clauses.
