49 -- Repair, Modify, Calibrate

The United States Air Force plans to award a sole source fixed price purchase order to Honeywell for the repair, modification (converting air to nitrogen), and calibration of two pressure controllers. This requirement is identified as a one-time need, and market research indicates that Honeywell is the only provider capable of meeting the government's specifications. The contract falls under the NAICS code 541830, with a size standard of $6 million. Although this notice serves primarily as an informational announcement rather than a solicitation, any interested and capable firms are invited to submit technical data—limited to two pages—to demonstrate their ability to fulfill the requirements. The government makes clear it will not compensate for such submissions. The contract details include the solicitation number Reference-Number-F3QCCL5356A100JK and were posted on January 19, 2006. While specifics about the office or place of performance are not provided, inquiries can be directed to the point of contact, Julie Kocinski, via email or phone. The notice emphasizes that timely responses from responsible sources will be considered, maintaining an open opportunity despite the sole source intent for Honeywell. This ensures transparency and allows other potential providers to present their qualifications if they believe they can satisfy the contract requirements.
