AN/USC-60A Terminals and AN/USC-60A Hub Terminals

The contract involves an extension of contract N65236-04-D-3119 for the supply of QDHT Terminals, Hub Terminals, and AN/USC-60A Tri-band Satellite Terminals from June 1, 2006, to January 31, 2007. This extension is planned to be awarded on a sole source basis to L3 Communications Corporation Satellite Network Division located in Hauppauge, NY, as they are the only known source capable of meeting the agency’s requirements during this interim period until a competitive contract can be established. The extension follows the provisions of FAR 6.302-1, which allows non-competitive procurement due to the unique capability of the current contractor. This notice serves as an intent rather than a solicitation for competitive proposals and invites written comments to be submitted to SPAWAR Systems Center Charleston. The contract is administered by the Department of Defense’s NIWC Atlantic office located in North Charleston, SC. The notice does not specify set-aside types or detailed performance locations, and it references Note #22, which may contain additional relevant instructions or conditions. The overall objective is to ensure continuity of supply for these specialized satellite terminal products during the extension period.
