AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Special Operations Command is increasing the maximum ordering quantity for production systems under two existing contracts related to the Special Operations Forces Equipment Advanced Requirements (SPEAR) Modular Integrated Communication Helmet (MICH). Originally, these contracts allowed for a maximum of 20,000 units to be ordered over a five-year period, but in response to a surge in operational needs following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the limit will be raised to 70,000 units. The contracts, awarded competitively to CGF Helmets in Newport, Vermont, will maintain their original ordering period without extension, and there will be no changes to the maximum quantities for spare parts. This adjustment is being made on a sole source basis under statutory authority from Title 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1. The announcement serves only as informational notice, with no formal solicitation forthcoming. Stakeholders with questions or comments are instructed to direct correspondence in writing to Mike Holland at the U.S. Special Operations Command. The increase aims to ensure that sufficient specialized communication helmets are available to support the heightened operational tempo of special operations forces.

Full Description

The U.S. Special Operations Command intends to increase, on a sole source basis, the maximum ordering quantity of production systems on two contracts which collectively comprise the Special Operations Forces Equipment Advanced Requirements (SPEAR) Modular Integrated Communication Helmet (MICH). This increase is necessary to ensure a sufficient quantity of this highly specialized equipment for the unanticipated increase in operations following the domestic terrorist attacks on the U.S. on 11 September 2001. The two contracts are as follows: USZA22-99-D-0008 and USZA22-00-D-0005, CGF Helmets; 30 Industrial Dr, Ste 10; Newport, VT 05855. Both contracts were awarded on a competitive basis. The maximum quantity of systems that can be ordered over the 5-year ordering period is currently 20,000 and will be increased to 70,000. The ordering period will not be extended, nor with the maximum quantity of spare parts be increased. Statutory authority for these sole source extensions is Title 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c) (1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. This notice is for informational purposes only; therefore no formal solicitation will result from this announcement. Questions or comments must be in writing and directed to Mike Holland via email at contact@example.gov. See numbered note 22.
