NAVSUP Fleet Logistic Center San Diego - Seal Beach Detachment intends to issue a sole source purchase order in accordance with FAR Part 16 to Patch Plus Consulting, 3 Raleigh Circle, Suite B, Medford, NJ, 08055.

The government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-2. Services currently provided by Patch Plus Consulting contract N00244-18-C-0007 we being performed by this contractor under a separate effort with the Air Force. As a resulting of funding and planning restrictions, the Air Force contract ceased with much of the work for the capstone exercise, Resolute Hunter, remaining incomplete. Services required necessitate specific, noncommercial expertise and knowledge of the ongoing Resolute Hunter exercise development in order to complete the course scheduled to commence 02 November 2020. Specifically, Patch Plus is the only contractor which holds a minimum of 15 years experience in intelligence, has current, working knowledge of Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) curricula, have unit-level ISR experience and is considered a Subject Matter Expert (SME) in targeting. Without these services, the newly established MISR Weapons School does not have the capacity to continue with exercise execution, which will have a domino effect of failures across the MISR Weapons School to include impeding service member deployment certifications.
