This is an intended sole source announcement. Space and Naval Warfare Center (SPAWAR) Atlantic, Code 22130, intends to award this requirement on a sole
source
basis to L3 Aviation Products, 100 Cattlemen road, Sarasota, FL 34232 on a
Frim-Fixed
Purchase Order for a new SAP repair request for the repair of 26 items,
transponder, PN:
AISA1000-094 that will also include a line to refurbish all transponders. Work
will be
completed from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) L3 Aviation Products,
CAGE:
06141. Early and or partial shipments are authorized. These units are for the
SSEE INC E
program. This will allow the performance based logistics- organic program at
SPAWAR
Charleston to have the required stock levels needed and ready to support the
fleet and
fulfill future requisition requirements.
These Transponders are necessary for proper operation of the AN/SSQ-137 SSEE
INC E
system. To deviate from the approved configuration, or item description would
adversely
affect the standard configuration and require extensive software and / or
hardware
installation changes not feasible with existing Navy Working Capital Funding
provided for
system sustainment. In order to ensure that the Transponders are returned in to
their
factory operation, only the OEM, can repair the units to their original
condition. If any
other company was to complete the repairs, it would create the risk that they
would not
restore them to the correct condition in order to be compatible with The Ship
System
Exploitation Equipment, (SSEE) An/SSQ-137 system since they do not have the
propriety
rights that L3 Aviation Products possess. If the government was not to use the
OEM, it
would cause the government lost time and additional costs when other companies
are
unable to repair the Transponders. This synopsis is posted for informational
purposes
only and is not a request for competitive offers.
A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action is based
on
response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. No
electronic or

Standard Time (EST) on 20 February 2019. This action is conducted under FAR
