AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground intends to extend the period of performance for the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-II (ENVG-II) firm fixed price contracts awarded to Exelis, Inc. and L-3 Systems, Inc. This 13-month extension is authorized under FAR 6.302-1(2)(ii) due to the unique qualifications of these contractors, as they are the only currently capable sources with the necessary industrial skills, processes, and facilities to timely manufacture and deliver the ENVG systems. The extension aims to bridge the gap between the expiration of the existing ENVG-II contracts and the award of the upcoming FWS-I/ENVG-III contract, allowing procurement of 3,344 ENVG systems to ensure uninterrupted fielding. Other manufacturers interested in competing for this requirement must undergo a government qualification process, which is expected to take longer than the fielding gap being addressed by this extension. The government is not seeking competitive proposals at this time but invites interested parties to submit capability information within 15 days of the notice to potentially inform future competitive procurements. Respondents must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with valid DUNS, CAGE, and Tax Identification numbers. All communications, including questions and capability statements, are to be submitted electronically to the designated government point of contact.
