AI Contract Overview

The contract authorizes the U.S. Army Contracting Command at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, to negotiate a noncompetitive acquisition with Concurrent Computer Corporation for the procurement of an iHawk Rackmount System and associated hardware, software, and maintenance services. This acquisition supports the Software Engineering Directorate of the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center, also located at Redstone Arsenal, with an estimated cost and an expected delivery or performance completion date of April 30, 2013. The iHawk system includes a high-performance rackmount computer equipped with dual 3.60 GHz Xeon processors, extensive memory, multiple input/output cards, and real-time RedHawk Linux operating system drivers, designed for integration within Lockheed Martin's System Integration Lab and the Integrated Test Set Master Computer for real-time data operations critical to the HH-60A/L Helicopter and related support systems. The justification for this sole-source procurement is grounded in the fact that Concurrent Computer Corporation is the unique and exclusive producer of the iHawk Rackmount System, which is specifically required to meet mission-critical real-time data processing capabilities that cannot be met by other systems. The contract invokes FAR 6.302-1 authority, citing that only one responsible source exists and no alternative supplies or services can fulfill these technical and schedule requirements. Deliverables include specialized PCI and PCIe expansion cards, cables, and software drivers compatible with RedHawk Linux, along with yearly maintenance services under Concurrent’s standard warranty. The contract highlights the hazardous impact on military operations and test capabilities that would occur if acquisition was delayed or awarded to other suppliers, emphasizing the necessity of compliance with the stipulated delivery timeline of late April 2013.

Authority Cited: This recommendation is being made pursuant to the statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition. Identify the appropriate FAR citation: _X__ FAR 6.302-1 - Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Also provide the following information: Required delivery schedule: 30 April 2013 Required lead-time: One Week. ___ FAR 8.405-6 - Limited sources justification and approval (used for GSA purchases) ___ FAR 6.302-2 - Unusual and compelling urgency. Also provide the following information: Date requirement was first known: __________; Required delivery schedule and basis for required delivery schedule: __________________________________ (Address the basis for why only the proposed contractor(s) SED Control# 0472-3A 4 can meet the required delivery schedule); Required lead-time: ___________________; Explain how the Government will be harmed by a delay in award: _____________________ (if delivery schedule is not met, define in terms of significant monetary or mission performance degradation and the basis. Ensure that this section tracks to the Statement of Urgency/Statement of Impact.) Describe why the authority cited above is appropriate for this acquisition: Concurrent Computer Corporation is the sole producer of the iHawk Rackmount System. iHawk is the real-time operating system chosen by Lockheed Martin for use in their System Integration Lab (SIL) for use in the new Integrated Test Set (ITS) Master Computer. The SIL's requirement to integrate the iHawk Rackmount is required in order to meet customer requirements for real-time data. Failure of purchasing would disrupt operation of the HH-60A/L Helicopter and supporting SIL. Contractor's unique qualifications (i.e., unique skills, data, equipment, processes) and evidence that such are essential to meet the government's requirement: the basis for attributing qualifications to the contractor, why no other contractor has or can be made to have the essential qualifications to meet the government's requirement or specified delivery date, and provide a statement why no other type of hardware or service can satisfy the government's need.) ___________________________ ___________ Brian D.
