TITLE: Multiple NSNs for a Strategic Long Term Contract to Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc. (CAGE:  45934)

This agency proposes to issue a letter solicitation to add NIINs to an existing long-term strategic, sole source contract which will include multiple NSNs / FSCs.  A total of 38 NSNs are targeted for this contract effort. The proposed action is intended to be awarded on a sole source basis as supported by a J&A IAW FAR 6.302-1 . The proposed sole source contract will be issued to Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc. (CAGE:  45934).

The proposed contract will be for a total 10 year period of performance.  Letters expressing interest in subcontracting provided to the contracting officer will be forwarded to the identified OEM.  This is proposed to be a FAR part 15 effort.  The proposed contract will be an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity, firm fixed price contract IAW FAR 16.504(a)(1) with a Prospective Price Redetermination.

The attached list of NSNs are the items that have been identified for this current action.  If other NSNs are subsequently added, as defined by the terms of the contract, they will be synopsized separately.

“It is the Government’s intent to use a letter solicitation format to the sole source Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM); therefore, if any non-OEM source is interested in any of the NSNs, please notify the Contracting Officer prior to the synopsis closing date.  Surplus dealers are also invited to respond to this synopsis.  The response should include a completed surplus certificate, DLAD 52.211-9000, Government Surplus Material or adequate traceability documentation to show that the product is acceptable. (Note:  Other Aviation sites will provide their equivalent surplus clause, as applicable).  Responses to this announcement from other than the OEM should identify items of interest and include evidence of ability to supply the items for the contract period as identified.  In addition, respondents should identify the quantity available and price.  A copy of the letter of interest should be forwarded to the contracting officer identified herein and SBA PCR (tammy.birdsong@sba.gov).  The Government may alter the acquisition strategy if purchase of existing surplus or newly-manufactured inventory is in the best interest of the Government.”
