AI Contract Overview

The Directorate of Contracting at Fort Bliss, Texas, plans to sole source the procurement of 10 SIT-AA8 Pop-Up Infantry Target Mechanisms along with 34 AH batteries and power cables from Meggitt Defense Systems, Caswell. These target mechanisms are battery-powered and radio-controlled and are intended for use with previously acquired Meggitt programmable controllers from 2006, which operate via proprietary software. The sole source justification cites 10 U.S.C. 2304(c) and FAR 6.302-1, indicating that only this supplier can meet the agency's requirements due to compatibility with existing equipment and software, and to avoid significant government costs associated with pursuing full and open competition. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 811310 with a size standard of $6.5 million. Although this is a follow-on procurement, all responsible sources are invited to submit their capabilities and qualifications by 2:00 PM MST on December 26, 2007, to be considered for potential competition. However, the government reserves the right to proceed without full and open competition based on its sole discretion. Responses must be submitted in writing and not by oral communication or facsimile. Interested parties may submit their information to the provided government contact email, though no requests for quotes or proposals will be issued from this notice of intent.
