AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground plans to award a sole-source contract to DVF Corporation for on-call periodic preventive maintenance, calibration, and emergency remedial services for the Tilt Table Test Facility and its associated subsystems at the Aberdeen Test Center. DVF is uniquely positioned to provide these services due to its ownership of design data, proprietary schematics, specialized test equipment, and trained technical personnel familiar with the facility. The maintenance will follow established technical manuals and procedures, with DVF supplying any necessary special purpose testing apparatus. This sole-source approach is justified to avoid substantial duplication of cost and delays that would occur if awarded to another contractor. The contract falls under NAICS code 811310 with a size standard of $7.5 million. Interested parties were invited to express interest by July 28, 2015; however, the notice does not constitute a solicitation for competitive proposals. The point of contact for this action is Christopher Neville, a Contract Specialist. Awarding to any contractor other than DVF is deemed inefficient due to DVF’s exclusive access to critical design and maintenance resources essential for timely and cost-effective service delivery.

Full Description

The U. S. Army Contracting Command, Tenant Division, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD intends to negotiate solely (as prescribed in FAR 6.302-1) with DVF Corporation, 9455 Early Drive, Hagerstown, MD 21740. The service will be provided for Aberdeen Test Center (ATC). The contractor shall provide labor and material to accomplish on-call periodic preventive maintenance and calibration and emergency remedial service of the Tilt Table Test Facility and associated subsystems/ancillary equipment and keep them in first class condition. Preventive maintenance shall be accomplished in accordance with the procedures as described in the technical manuals of the test facility or the appropriate subsystem/ancillary equipment. Special purpose test equipment and fixtures shall be provided by the contractor when required to accomplish the services. DVF owns design data and possesses test procedures, specialized maintenance/calibration apparatus, proprietary schematics, and drawings, all of which are essential to accomplish the requested maintenance, repair, and calibration requirements in a timely and cost efficient manner. DVF has available skilled, experienced technical personnel who have been trained to provide the technical knowledge necessary to evaluate, diagnose, and provide corrective actions for the facility to operate at its desired level of performance. Award to another contractor would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this requirement is 811310 and the size standard is $7.5 million. Interested persons may identify their interest, in writing, to the Government point of contact. Responses to this notice must be received no later than 2:45 PM, Eastern Standard Time, 28 July 2015. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals or a solicitation of offers. The point of contact for this action is Christopher Neville, Contract Specialist, contact@example.gov.
