69--Sole Source Intent Notification - F/A-18C/D Tactical Operational Flight Trainers (TOFTs) Upgrade and Relocation

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. The Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) Orlando intends to award a modification to a delivery order under Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N61340-12-G-0001 to L-3 Communications Corporation, Link Simulation and Training Division (L-3) Company for the procurement of F/A-18C/D Storage Area Network (SAN) Configuration Upgrade and Relocation for Tactical Operational Flight Trainers (TOFTs), Device 2F193 (Serial Numbers 25/26/27) from NAS Lemoore, CA to the following three

1. separate locations; Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Iwakuni, Japan, Technical Product Office (TPO) Naval Air Station (NAS) China Lake, CA; and L-3 Facility Arlington, TX.

Additionally, this procurement will also include removal and delivery of existing Brief/Debrief Station (BDS) currently at NAS Lemoore to MCAS Iwakuni. Award to any other contractor would result in substantial duplication of costs to the Government that would not be recovered through competition and would create unacceptable delays in fulfilling F/A-18 mission training requirements. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis under statutory authority of 10 U.S.C.

(c)(1) as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 (Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements). No solicitation documents are available. This notice of intent is neither a request for competitive proposals nor a solicitation of offers.
