Egyptian Navy Autonomous INTelligence System (AINTS) Platform Integration
Solicitation # N0003926RE014
The Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) is soliciting proposals under RFP N0003926RE014 for the Egyptian Navy Autonomous Intelligence Systems (AINTS) Platform Integration. This Foreign Military Sales effort supports the Egyptian Navy by procuring the design, engineering, procurement, integration, testing, installation, training, and field service representative (FSR) services for AINTS platforms. The scope of work includes the delivery of specific hardware, including six V-BAT UAVs, six ESM (2-40 GHz) units, and six COMINT (2 MHz) units, along with unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) and spare parts. The contract is estimated for a three-year period of performance with an award window between June 2027 and June 2030. The acquisition utilizes a hybrid pricing structure consisting of Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) for labor, cost-reimbursement for travel and other direct costs, and Firm-Fixed-Price for materials and equipment. Award will be based on best value, where non-cost factors, specifically technical and management approaches, are significantly more important than cost. Due to the sensitive nature of the requirements, the Statement of Work is designated as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), requiring interested Department of Defense contractors to submit a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement to gain access. Proposals must be submitted via the PIEE SOL module and include detailed volumes covering contractual information, cost narratives, and technical capabilities.

Full Description

Based on current available information from market research and technical/programmatic/mission requirement assessments, the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to award a sole source Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract modification for enhanced Acoustic Augmentation Support Program (AASP) Very Low Frequency (VLF) Transducer capability. This procurement would be conducted under the authority of DFARS 206.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.


The basis for the only one responsible source determination is that only Sparton DeLeon Springs, LLC (Sparton) has the ability to meet the Government’s technical requirements as outlined in the Critical Item Performance Specification (CIPS)(see document request process below) and Fleet operational and schedule requirements.  The Government estimates the monetary rough order of magnitude of this change to be 150%.  This is based on the fact that Sparton is currently under first article development under contract N6660423DB300 with critical and time-consuming risk mitigating efforts already complete. Contract N6660423DB300 is being modified to have enhanced capability to support Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) mission sets. These enhancements are reflected in the CIPS referenced above and below.  The Government has determined that any company other than Sparton would take an additional twenty (20) months to get to first production unit delivery, and this delay represents an unacceptable schedule impact to the Government resulting in a mission capability gap that represents a significant risk to Fleet operations.  Concurrently with this sole source effort the Government will be soliciting, evaluating, and awarding a fully competitive effort.


The purpose of this notice is to invite industry to challenge the Government’s assessment that only Sparton DeLeon Springs, LLC is capable of meeting the Government's requirements for AASP VLF Transducers. Interested parties, including Sparton, are invited to submit capability statements that demonstrate their ability to fulfill the requirement as defined in the CIPS to provide the Government with maximum information in finalizing its determination as to the appropriate means to meet this critical Navy need.
