Description
This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement is being issued as a request for quotation (RFQ) and constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular FAC 2005-99. This combined synopsis/solicitation is set-aside 100% for small business. North American Industrial Classification Standard 336413 applies to this solicitation; business size standard is 500 Employees. The Minnesota Air National Guard has a requirement for installation of a Type H Single Runway Radio Control System, Part # PAACS-HDC-1 (ACE3600), NSN #5895-01-597-5758 for control of a Type H Aircraft Arresting System (AAS). Previous similar "sources sought" and "sole source solicitations" include: W901UZCETSCBAK and W912J218P6008. The 148FW anticipates that this is a sole source requirement due to previously uncontested sole source solicitations and proprietary specifications (the Control System must interface with the Type H Aircraft Arresting System). We are publicizing this requirement in compliance with FAR 5.102 (a) (6) and FAR 13.106-1(b). If you believe this is in error, please contact the Contracting Officer promptly with specific objections.
