The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City intends to solicit Powerstar, Inc., 9073 Shady Grove Court, Gaithersburg, MD 20877-1301 on a sole source basis for fifteen (15) each Part Number PS6000MISO-GRADE-A-W uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). These UPS are required for installation of the Amphibious Assault Direction System (AADS) workstation on ships deploying in FY 07. These UPS are identical to the equipment that is currently installed in the fleet. This specific component has gone through the shock and vibration testing required for certification of its safety for shipboard installation. Purchase of any other manufacturer's component would require duplication of the shock and vibration testing performed on these UPS at a cost estimated to exceed the cost of the computers being procured. Therefore, it is in the Government's best interest to purchase these Powerstar UPS. These items will be delivered to the Naval Support Activity - Panama City, Receiving !
