60--Intent to Award HERO Sensors Supply Requirement to Opsens Inc.

The Mission Installation Contracting Command at White Sands Missile Range intends to award a sole source contract to Opsens, Inc., located in Quebec, Canada, for the supply of HERO sensors, specifically part number OTG-R-10-100ST-1.37PVC-XN-3A-R. This action is being taken under the statutory authority that allows for awarding contracts without competition when there is only one responsible source capable of meeting the agency’s requirements. The announcement serves as notice of the intent to award rather than a solicitation, and no solicitation document is available. While the government invites any responsible sources to submit proposals within five business days following the publication date, it emphasizes that no telephone inquiries will be entertained and that it will not cover any costs associated with proposal preparation. The procurement falls under the NAICS code 335921 and is managed by the Department of Defense office at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The government’s decision is based on the unique capability of Opsens, Inc. to fulfill the specific supply requirements for the HERO sensors, which are critical to the agency's mission needs. The government maintains openness to receiving proposals during the limited period but does not anticipate any competitors, highlighting the non-competitive nature of this award.
