The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed price contract to Cobham Mission Systems for the production and delivery of 250 Low Foreign Object Debris (FOD) Drogue Assemblies, part number 401289-9. With an estimated total value of 6.5 million dollars funded by FY15 and FY16 APN-7 funds, the acquisition is conducted under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1. Cobham is identified as the sole developer and manufacturer of these non-developmental items, which are already utilized by NATO and Allied Nation Air Forces and have been approved for integration on U.S. Navy and Marine Corps aircraft. These Low FOD Drogues attach to the Aerial Refueling Store to provide carrier-based mission and recovery tanking for probe-equipped receivers, specifically supporting the F/A-18E/F fleet. The procurement is managed by the Naval Air Systems Command office in Patuxent River, Maryland, under solicitation number N00019-15-R-0093 and NAICS code 336413. The government determined that no other supplies or services could satisfy the agency requirement, justifying the decision to negotiate exclusively with Cobham Mission Systems.
