E-2D FY14 PSE

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst, NJ intends to negotiate on a non-competitive basis with Northrop Grumman Corporation (NGC), of Bethpage, NY for the procurement of one hundred forty-seven (147) pieces of Peculiar Support Equipment (PSE). This effort will include the design, development, first article units, and production of PSE in support of the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye. All items are proprietary to NGC and only they have the requisite proprietary knowledge and drawings to produce the PSE. The Government intends to procure the above items under the authority of 10 USC 3204 (c) (1), FAR 6.302-1. The Government does not anticipate procuring data rights and competitive drawing package for this effort as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) is unwilling to sell their data rights. A determination by the Government, not to open the requirement to competition based upon the response to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Responses must be received within fifteen (15) days of publication of this notice. The Point of Contact is Ms. Sarah Lowell, contact@example.gov, Code 2.5.2.2.3SL, +1 (555) 000-0000.
