AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Navy’s Commander Fleet Readiness Centers intends to award a sole-source purchase order to FXC Corporation for the repair and calibration of the Auto Tester, Ripcord Release, part number 711-07153 and NSN 1670-01-508-8838. This requirement is necessary because the work cannot be performed at existing Navy maintenance facilities, and FXC Corporation is the only known qualified source capable of meeting the government’s exact technical and operational needs. All repairs must use original manufacturer parts and return the units to a fully functional Ready for Issue condition. The procurement is justified under FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b)(i) due to the unavailability of any other source that can satisfy the agency’s requirements. Although this is a sole-source action, responsible vendors may submit capability statements within five calendar days of the notice’s publication, though the government retains sole discretion to determine whether to open the requirement to competition. The point of contact for inquiries is Jeffrey Smith at jeffrey.t.smith6.civ@us.navy.mil.
