Title: W900KK20R0020 Army Ground Aerial Target Control System (AGATCS) Support, Development, and Production (SDP) Single Award IDIQ The purpose of this posting is to provide an update on the Request for Information (RFI) issued for Notice ID/Solicitation W900KK-20-R-0020 for Target & Threat Operation - Production & Development Support (T2 OPS), Multiple Award Contract (MAC). The Government has reviewed industry’s responses to the RFI posting W900KK-20-R-0020. Market research for the T2 OPS MAC does not support adequate competition as established by Competition in Contracting Act and outlined in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 6 – Competition Requirements. The MAC is not a viable contracting solution for PM CT2. The Government will individually procure the items that were going to be solicited within the MAC. The Government intends to proceed with a Single Award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract for the Army Ground Aerial Target Control System (AGATCS) Support, Development, and Production (SDP).
