Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) intends to award a modification to a Firm Fixed Price Order under BOA N00019-08-G-0002 to Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation (HS), Windsor Locks, CT, to add a second option period for the modification of three NP2000 Line Replaceable Units (LRU): the Electronic Valve Housing (EVH), the Actuator Valve Module (AVM), and the Variable Pitch Actuator (VPA) to correct a deficiency in the propeller feathering system. This action will also incorporate the modification of existing HS manufactured aircraft level support equipment required for installation of the LRUs. The proposed contract action will extend the contract performance by 12 months. These modifications will be implemented on a forced-retrofit basis to address a safety concern related to a failure in the propeller feathering system and will affect the E-2C, C-2A, and E-2D type model series aircraft. This contract is applicable to US Navy (USN) aircraft only. This effort includes: production management, retrofit parts and instructions, material procurement, machining, build-up, acceptance testing, configuration audits, packaging and delivery. HS is the manufacturer of the E-2 and C-2 NP2000 Propeller System for the US Navy and the only source with the requisite technical data rights and design performance data necessary to address and resolve safety, reliability, and readiness problems in a timely manner. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.
