Sole Manufacturer and hold proprietary right for the requirements listed under
the
authority of FAR 6.302-1 Only One Responsible source and no other supplies or
services will satisfy agency requirements. THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT AND NOT
A
REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES for items other than the brand name, Brandywine
Communications Inc. equipment listed. To deviate from the approved
configuration or
item description would adversely affect the standard Configuration & require
extensive
software and/or hardware installation changes not feasible provided for the
system
Sustainment. In order to ensure that the Brandywine Synchronizers, Amplifiers,
and
Generator Time Codes are returned to their factory operation, Only the OEM can
repair
the units to their original condition. If any other company was to complete the
the
repairs, it would create the risk that they would not restore them to the
correct condition
in order to be compatible with the Ship System Exploitation Equipment (SSEE)
AN/SSQ-
137 system since they do not have the proprietary rights that Brandywine
Communications possess. If the Government was to not use the OEM, it would
cause the
Government lost time and additional costs when the companies are unable to
repair as
specified on the attached SSJ.
