This effort includes the acquisition of ATE, ancillary equipment, and the development and delivery of one set of TPS hardware for each of the 15 required SRAs identified in the table above.
The proposed contract action is for the procurement of supplies which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source, Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation 1580 W Nursery Road, Linthicum Heights, MD 21090 under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2) (statutory authority 10 U.S.C 3204(a)(1)), only one responsible source. The requirement is being solicited on a sole source basis because Northrop Grumman Systems Corp is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and they are unwilling to sell the complete data package to the Government to allow for full and open competition. In addition, parts from any other vendor would result in extensive duplication of costs to include re-engineering, re-certification, environmental qualifications to the government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, and unacceptable delays in fulfilling agency requirements through any other source.
All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. However, a determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of re-evaluating the justification for sole source or limitation of sources and making a determination to change the acquisition strategy to a competitive procurement. Solicitations and amendments for this sole source action will not be posted to sam.gov and are available only from the POC identified below.
Contractors must be properly registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and the Joint Certification Program (JCP) in order to receive the controlled attachments. Offerors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation requirements by calling 1-866-606-8220 or via the internet at https://www.sam.gov Information about the JCP is located at https://public.logisticsinformationservice.dla.mil/PublicHome/jcp/default.aspx.
Questions or inquiries should be directed to Elizabeth Hacker, Code 0233, telephone 812-381-5170, e-mail [email protected]. Please reference the above solicitation number when responding to this notice.
The Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a requirement for the procurement of Test Program Sets (TPS) and Automated Test Equipment (ATE) to support depot repair testing of AN/ZPY-3 Multi-Function Active Sonar (MFAS) Shop Replaceable Assemblies (SRAs). This effort involves non-recurring engineering for the development and manufacture of TPS software and hardware, as well as the delivery of hosting ATE and ancillary equipment for 15 specific SRAs, including auxiliary synchronizers, power converters, array drivers, and receivers. The new solutions are intended to streamline multiple configurations and mitigate Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) while supporting organic depot-level repairs at Fleet Readiness Center Southeast (FRCSE).
The Department of the Navy intends to solicit and negotiate this requirement on a sole-source basis with Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2). As the Original Equipment Manufacturer, Northrop Grumman possesses the proprietary data required for the project; the government has determined that utilizing any other source would result in unacceptable delays and the extensive duplication of costs related to re-engineering and environmental qualifications. The primary place of performance is Linthicum Heights, Maryland, with a response deadline of April 2, 2026.
This pre-solicitation is identified under solicitation number N0016425GJW77_JobOrder0002. The acquisition is classified under NAICS code 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing and PSC 5826 for Airborne Radio Navigation Equipment. While the agency will consider capability statements or proposals from all responsible sources to evaluate the acquisition strategy, solicitations and amendments will not be posted to SAM.gov and must be requested directly from the point of contact, Elizabeth Hacker. Contractors are required to maintain active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) and the Joint Certification Program (JCP) to access controlled information.
