FBO: Federal Business Opportunities

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The purpose of this synopsis/solicitation is to inform the vendor community of Defense Information Systems Agency?s proposed contract actions. This is acquisition is unrestricted for business participation purposes. This proposed contract action in pursuant to the authority FAR 6.302-1, 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(1). Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Any deviation from the specified brand name will result in compatibility challenges and operations and maintenance logistics support issues. The solicitation/reference number is MPHA369 and is issued as a request for proposal (RFP). The associated North American Industrial Classification Systems (NAICS) code for this procurement is 335911. The small business size standard is 500 employees. Offeror must be registered on the Contractor Central Registration (CCR). This acquisition is firm-fixed-price for GNB/Exide batteries and chargers. The GNB/Exide brand is the standard at the Pacific Missile Range Facility(PMRF) and these batteries and battery charges are already in standard use at PMRF. The unique characteristics of this battery is that the PMRF Missile range already use these batteries as back-up power and they require the same battery to interchange with the current batteries already in place. For instance if at one site the battery dies they can pull out another battery from another site and interchange them without damaging the equipment. Without these specific types of battery and battery charges a loss of power will be detrimental to the telemetry data stream during a mission operation or a missile launch. Any deviation from the specified brand name will result in compatibility challenges and operations and maintenance logistics support issues. This in return will be detrimental to the National Security of the United States. A power outage without redundant battery back-up power will cost PMRF a significant amount of funds to disengage the missile and reschedule the mission operation. Without this equipment, this could result in the compromise or loss of National Security and cause grave damage to the United States. This is an all-or-none requirement. Partial proposals will be deemed unresponsive and will not be evaluated. This acquisition is firm-fixed-price and solicited on a limited Brand Name, original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or authorized/qualified reseller basis in accordance with FAR 6.302-1.
