J--Repair and Upgrade of the Heavy Vehicle Simulator for Aircraft (HVS-A)

The US Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) plans to award a sole source contract to Dynatest Inc. for the repair and upgrade of the Heavy Vehicle Simulator for Aircraft (HVS-A), originally purchased from Dynatest in 1998. The HVS-A currently contains outdated equipment that requires modernization and maintenance to meet operational needs. As Dynatest Inc. is the exclusive manufacturer and supplier of the HVS-A, the government will utilize the authority under FAR 13.106-1(b) to proceed with a non-competitive acquisition, employing simplified acquisition procedures as specified in FAR 13. This procurement is not open for competitive solicitation, but interested parties can submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations by the designated deadline of September 9, 2011. The contract falls under NAICS code 811310 and reflects a commercial acquisition aimed at maintaining and enhancing specialized government equipment. Contact for submissions is directed to the ERDC Contract Specialist Anna Crawford via email, ensuring that all responsible sources can provide information for government consideration despite the sole source procurement.
