J--DIRECTION FINDER SE, IN REPAIR/MODIFICATION OF

The contract involves the procurement of 20 units of a specific part identified by NSN 7R-5826-014782375-QF, under TDP version 002, with delivery terms FOB origin. The intended recipient of the contract is Rockwell Collins Inc., located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. This action is a notice of intent rather than a request for competitive quotes, as the government plans to negotiate exclusively with one source due to the lack of sufficient, accurate, or legible data to procure the part from alternative suppliers. Interested parties may express their interest or submit quotes before the award date, but the decision to open competition remains at the government's discretion. Responses will mostly be used to assess whether a competitive procurement should be pursued. The solicitation, designated N0038312PG032, relates to the repair or modification of direction finders, under the auspices of the Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support office, a Department of Defense entity based in Philadelphia, PA. The presolicitation notice was posted in December 2011 and is classified as a pre-solicitation without any specific small business set-aside identified. The place of performance is not specified, and no point of contact details are provided. This streamlined procurement approach underscores the government’s reliance on the current supplier to fulfill the requirement while maintaining the option to evaluate other suppliers based on the information received.
