FY 15/16 Tomahawk Cruise Missile Depot

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to award a sole source Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Raytheon Missile Systems for the FY 2015-FY 2016 Tomahawk Cruise Missile Depot Operations. This contract includes both Firm Fixed Price and Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee items and covers lifecycle management and technical support for maintaining a Tomahawk Cruise Missile Depot Facility located in Tucson, Arizona. Activities performed under this contract will include depot maintenance, system testing, Foreign Military Sales maintenance, spares and repairs, and the preparation of expired or defective Block II and Block III missiles for demilitarization. The contract period is 12 months with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. Raytheon is the sole manufacturer and only known source capable of fulfilling these requirements within the necessary timeframe. The contract solicitation was posted in August 2014 under solicitation number N00019-14-R-1028, with NAVAIR’s Patuxent River office overseeing the acquisition. Due to the export-controlled nature of the Tomahawk missile data, participation is restricted to U.S. sources only. While this is an intent notice rather than a competitive solicitation, all responsible sources can submit capability statements or proposals for consideration. Key contacts include Marianne Wild as the Contract Specialist and Connie Gayle as the Procuring Contracting Officer at NAVAIR, with Raytheon’s point of contact for subcontracting being Christine Keilers. The acquisition supports critical missile maintenance operations essential to national defense and foreign military sales programs.
