The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst, NJ intends to solicit and award a fixed price award, on a sole source basis to VMI Nondestructive Testing Solutions (VMI), (CAGE 8BBQ3) in Pensacola, Florida. This effort will be for a Computed Radiography (CR) System Engineering Change Proposal (ECP), to resolve parts obsolescence while maintaining current capability. The ECP will resolve obsolescence issues with the system and is capable of being drop-in functional replacements for the legacy systems. This effort requires (5) Pilot Production Units, and a total quantity of 100 production units (inclusive of Foreign Military Sales and other Department of Defense agency quantities). The CR is a portable, ruggedized system that processes imaging plates for radiographic image viewing, interpretation and storage capability for Navy and Marine Corps Intermediate level Nondestructive Inspection (NDI) labs. In addition to what was previously synopsized, requirements omitted from original synopsis but required include, when necessary: CR System Scanner Repair-Estimated 100 QTY CR System Scanner Replacement-Estimated 100 QTY CR System Monitor Replacement-Estimated 100 QTY The Government intends to procure the above items under the statutory authority of Title 10, U.S.C. Section 2304(c)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements."
