--W23BFK61927002 Intent to Sole Source

The United States Army Intelligence and Security Command plans to award a sole-source contract for the Camera Detector/Locator Unit DLU-02 to SEA Technology, Inc., the exclusive manufacturer capable of producing this item. The acquisition will be conducted under specific statutory and regulatory authorities allowing for an other than full and open competition process, namely 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), FAR 6.302-1, and FAR Part 12 related to commercial item acquisition. This notification serves as an intent to award and is not a solicitation for proposals, with responses used solely to determine whether a competitive procurement is necessary. The government has set an accelerated response window of three days, significantly shorter than the typical 45 days. This contract action is tied to the Department of Defense and will be managed out of Fort Belvoir, Virginia. The contract’s solicitation number is USA-SNOTE-060807-001, linked to the NAICS industry code 333315. The nature of the procurement and the limited timeframe reflect the government’s reliance on SEA Technology’s unique manufacturing capability, ensuring that the contract will be awarded directly without opening the requirement to other potential vendors. All procedures indicate a streamlined acquisition process adhering strictly to federal acquisition regulations pertinent to sole-source commercial item purchases.
