The U.S. Army Contracting Command, Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), Fort Belvoir Division, on behalf of the Product Manager, Countermine and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (PM CM&EOD), intends to negotiate a Firm-Fixed-Price, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract, with a twelve month base ordering period and two twelve month option periods, with Lockheed Martin Gyrocam Systems, LLC (LMGS) 7345 16th Street East, Sarasota, FL 34243, on a sole source basis for spare and repair parts and logistics data to support 797 currently fielded Vehicle Optics Sensor Systems (VOSS). The VOSS is a gyro-stabilized, triple-sensor camera attached to a twenty-five foot telescoping-mast mounted onto blast protected vehicles. The VOSS is a commercial item that allows for standoff detection and interrogation of suspected Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) during route clearance and Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) missions. The VOSS eliminates the need for Soldiers to dismount from the vehicles, thereby decreasing the risk of serious injury or loss of life. It has been determined that LMGS is the only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency's requirements. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C 2304 (c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2); Only One Responsible Source and no Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements. However, all responsible sources that can provide supporting data to demonstrate they can successfully provide the required non-developmental VOSS spare and repair parts may submit a parts list with a corresponding quote that will considered by the agency.
