This is a one-year contract to supply a minimum of 50 Printed Wiring Boards (Part# 13508610) with an estimated annual demand of 150, in support of the Patriot Weapon System. The estimated production lead time is 720 days after contract award, or 1500 days if First Article Testing is required, with deliveries to Chambersburg, PA. The government is procuring this under an exception for a limited number of responsible sources, as it must acquire the part directly from the actual manufacturer. All offerors must meet prequalification requirements and are responsible for all engineering and manufacturing costs to become a qualified source. The government encourages responses from all business types, including small and disadvantaged businesses.

This is a market research notice from the Defense Logistics Agency to identify potential manufacturers for a spare missile part (Printed Wiring) to support the Patriot Weapon System. The performance period is for one year, and the work is to add the part to an existing contract held by Lockheed Martin. The government does not own the data rights for this part, making reverse engineering uneconomical, so it is seeking the actual manufacturer. The notice encourages all business types, including small businesses, to identify themselves and seek source approval to compete for a future solicitation. Respondents are responsible for all engineering and manufacturing costs associated with becoming a qualified source.
