NASA/LARC has a requirement for a compact intensified camera.
NASA/LARC intends to purchase the items from Syntronics. Syntronics is the original manufacturer of the intensified CCD Camera currently in use at NASA LaRC. The new camera will be easily interfaced with existing equipment and no new training will be needed to operate the camera and its software. It would take substantial duplication of resources and time for another source to provide the required service and this additional expense is not expected to be recovered through competition.

The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12.
Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 12:00 p.m. local time on 09/08/2016. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government.

Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.

All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency.

NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable.
