The Department of Defense, through the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support in Mechanicsburg, PA, has issued this notice of intent signaling an intent to negotiate a contract with a single source supplier rather than soliciting competitive quotes. However, the notice invites any interested parties to show interest or submit quotes, which will be evaluated prior to award, though the government reserves the sole discretion to proceed without competition. The reason for the sole-source procurement is that the government currently lacks sufficient, accurate, or legible data to source the parts from any supplier other than the incumbent. The solicitation number for this presolicitation is N0010412PLE92, and the notice was posted in September 2012. The contract is managed by the Department of Defense office responsible for weapon systems support, highlighting the critical nature and specificity of the circuit card assemblies involved. Interested suppliers are encouraged to respond, but the government projects moving forward with the current source to ensure delivery and quality based on existing technical information.
