non-recurring effort of conducting a halon concentration test to record halon levels on an AH-64E Version 4 aircraft.

The United States Government (USG) Army Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal (ACC-RSA) intends to award on a sole source basis, IAW 10 U.S.C.2304(c)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(A) entitled "Only One Responsible Source, and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements" the procurement for the non-recurring effort of conducting a halon concentration test to record halon levels on an AH-64E Version 4 aircraft to The Boeing Company, 5000 E McDowell Road, Mesa, AZ 85215, Cage Code: 8V613, under Contract W58RGZ-15-G-0001. The requirement includes the following: A requirement to conduct a halon concentration test to record halon levels in the engine nacelles on an AH-64E Version 4 aircraft in order to compare the results to halon levels measured during a 2003 halon concentration test. Configuration changes to the halon fire extinguishing bottles, engines and engine nacelles implemented on the aircraft since 2003 may have altered the level of halon concentration inside the engine nacelles potentially affecting the ability of the Fire Detection and Suppression System (FDSS) to extinguish a fire. The testing is necessary to ensure those configuration changes have not created a vulnerability to aircrews operating the aircraft. The AH-64A/D/E technical data packages are held by The Boeing Company located at 5000 E McDowell Road, Mesa, AZ 85215. This notice closes at 4:00PM CST on 08 January 2019.
