The Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Division, Lakehurst, New Jersey intends to issue a Sole Source, Fixed Price contract to Empire Crane Company (CAGE: 3MKU3) for the procurement of one used (1) Heavy Maintenance Crane (HMC) Part Number CD 225 HMC, NSN 3810-01-549-0465 in support of the Bahrain Defense Force H1 Program. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements" for this action. This particular HMC is the only piece of Support Equipment to meet the maintenance requirements of the Bahrain Defense Force (BDF) H-1 Program. No other crane has been identified that can perform the same functions, is certified by the U.S. Navy to conduct maintenance on military outfitted H-1 helicopters and that also meets the size constraints of the facility in which the crane will be utilized overseas. (THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS). Responsible, interested parties, however, may identify their interest by submitting a capabilities statement. The Government will consider all information received prior to the closing date of this notice. A determination by the Government not to compete this procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not pay for any responses received. There are no commitments by the Government to issue any solicitations, make an award or awards, or to be responsible for any monies expended by any interested parties before award of a contract for the efforts mentioned above. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit for or award a contract. No telephone responses will be accepted.
