Stand By Flight Display Implementation

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) is issuing a delivery order under Basic Ordering Agreement N00019-12-G-0006 to the Bell-Boeing Joint Program Office for the implementation of a new Standby Flight Display (SFD) for the V-22 Osprey. This action is necessary to address Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) affecting the current SFD, requiring a production line update to ensure continued aircraft viability. The contract is being awarded on an other than full and open competitive basis, as Bell-Boeing is the sole developer, designer, and manufacturer of the V-22 aircraft and the only source with the requisite technical data, database management capabilities, and expertise to meet the required schedule. Managed by the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Division, the effort involves critical engineering, software development, testing, and obsolescence management. The award is justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, with the overarching Class Justification and Approval valid through December 31, 2017. While the agency is based in Patuxent River, Maryland, the place of performance for this effort is located in Amarillo, Texas.
