This is a COMBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION for commercial items, prepared in accordance with the format in FAR subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information. This solicitation is pursuant to FAR subpart 13.5-Test Program for Certain Commercial Items. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation.

Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM), located at 2200 Lester Street, Quantico, VA 22134, has a requirement to procure a Scout Sniper Day Scope Improved Mount (SSDS-IM). The SSDS-IM is a one-piece mounting solution that does not require the use of tools for rail attachment for the following weapon platforms: M110 and M107. The SSDS-IM is a commercial item under FAR 2.101 because several offerors offer similar improved mount systems for sale to the general public that can potentially meet the performance specifications for this effort. Per FAR 2.101, a commercial item is any item, other than real property, that is of a type customarily used by the general public or by non-governmental entities for purposes other than governmental purposes, and has been sold, leased, or licensed to the general public; or has been offered for sale, lease, or license to the general public. By conducting market research, the Marine Corps learned that the general public uses a one-piece mounting solution on commercially purchased rifles that have the same rail mechanism for mounting as the Marine Corps M110 & M107 rifles. To offer the one-piece mounting solution to the general public, several vendors who manufacture the one-piece mounting solution list the item for sale via internet websites for mail delivery and offer items in retail sportsman stores. Based on responses of the RFI released in March 2011, along with follow up market research conducted in 2013 and 2014 which validated previous findings, at least two responsible small businesses, competing independently are capable of fulfilling this requirement at reasonable prices and can meet the delivery schedule. Therefore, this requirement is 100% set aside for small businesses. The Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) and the Associate Director for Small Business Programs concur this requirement is 100% set aside for small business. The solicitation is a request for quotation (RFQ) M67854-15-T-1017. This RFQ and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular FAC 2005-77.
