Procurement to provide Extended Support - Software Support Plan, and Hardware Support Plan to the commercial ADACEL Systems, Inc. ATNAVICS Trainer software to allow for support for 10 delivered ATNAVICS Trainers. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. The Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) Orlando, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, a contract with Adacel Systems, Inc to provide Extended Support - Software Support Plan, and Hardware Support Plan to the commercial ADACEL Systems, Inc. ATNAVICS Trainer software to allow for support for 10 delivered ATNAVICS Trainers for 3 additional option years. Sole source contracting with Adacel is permitted under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.” Adacel’s established Training System Support Center (TSSC) at the Orlando, FL facility will continue to maintain a simulation system with the ATNAVICS Trainer simulator baseline to support the fielded trainers during the contracted period of performance. The TSSC will continue to act as the center of support for the ATNAVICS Trainer program for this follow-on support. System hardware and software configuration management for each system will be maintained at the TSSC, ensuring an available backup of deployed system software. The TSSC will operate in the fully staffed mode eight hours per day, five days per week. For the remainder of the time, the TSSC will operate on call/standby mode, using an automated telephone transfer process for incoming helps desk calls ultimately providing 24/7/365 support. The SimCare provisions providing hardware and software maintenance listed below will continue throughout the ATNAVICS support period. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis under statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304 ( c )(1) as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 (only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements).
