P-8A TECHNICAL DATA DEVELOPMENT
The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst has a requirement U.S. Navy P-8A Technical Data development and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) establishment and transition operations. The scope of work will include the comprehensive development and support of the P-8A Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM); Fleet Integration Training (FIT) and engineering, logistical assistance, and technical support to FMS customer countries introducing the P-8A into service. The Government intends to issue a contract on a non-competitive basis for this requirement to ASEC Inc. The resultant contract action will be issued as a modification to an existing contract. ASEC is the only known source with the specific P-8A experience, engineering and technical data knowledge necessary to successfully accomplish the requirements. Currently, ASEC is performing phase one of the three phase IETM development effort, with follow-on phase two and three requirements dependent upon the data and deliverables being generated under the existing effort. Award to any other vendor would provide a delay in the issuance of IETM based Fleet Technical Publications, as well as the required FMS P-8A transition support by approximately 2 years. This would result in an undue delay in the receipt of Government requirements and an associated negative impact to Fleet combat readiness.
This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, the Government will consider all responses received within fifteen days after the date of publication of this synopsis. A determination by the Government not to open this requirement to full and open competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received as a result of this notice of intent will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a full and open competitive procurement.
