PTO Shaft Adaptor Equipment

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for non-commercial items. It is the Government's intention to award this contract on a sole source basis to Goodrich/UTC Aerospace Systems under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i). The items to be procured (see attached Purchase Specification Document) are required when performing overhauls on B-1B PTO Shafts in the Secondary Power Systems PTO Shop. These are highly specialized and accurate adapters used to attach the PTO Shafts into the Test Equipment. The use of these Shaft Adapters in the overhaul process is specified in Technical Order 2JA5-18-2 and per UTC Aerospace Systems (UTCAS) (formerly Goodrich Corp.) Overhaul Instructions. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; a proposal from the sole source contractor is being requested and a written solicitation is attached. If other sources are capable of meeting this requirement, please notify the Government POC prior to the closing of this notice. Evaluation factors will be technical capability and price. Offers from firms not identified as the sole source for this requirement will only be considered when it can be determined prior to award that the equipment being offered will meet the government's requirements. In the event a second offeror is deemed to have the technical capabilities required to meet the requirement, basis of award will be lowest-price technically acceptable (LPTA). LPTA is the most appropriate as best value is expected to result from selection of a technically-acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price.

The applicable NAICS code is 333515 and small business size standard is 500 Employees. Offeror shall comply with all aspects of the Purchase Specification Document.
