SPECIAL NOTICE - INTENT TO AWARD ON A SOLE SOURCE BASIS

This is a notice of intent to award a sole source contract under the authority of 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(5) and 15 U.S.C. 657(f) (See FAR 6.302-5(b)(6), Sole source awards under the SDVOSB Program and FAR 19.1406, Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business Program sole source awards). The Army Contracting Command (ACC), Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG), Research Triangle Park (RTP) Division intends to award a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) contract directly to Trailblazer Innovations, Inc. (CAGE Code 4TW39) a service disabled veteran-owned small business, for Computer Systems Design and Technical Support services.

The Government has a requirement to support the fielding support, training, and sustainment of Friendly Forces Tracking (FFT) equipment to generate, collect, and disseminate or share friendly force (United States, Allies, and Coalition) identification, location, and tracking information.

Specifically, the Contractor shall provide architecture design, integration, fabrication and life cycle support of FFT device and systems for Department of Defense (DOD) service components, agencies, and combatant commanders (COCOM). FFT/Blue Force Tracking (BFT) equipment as defined by the CJCSI 3910.01 will generate, collect, and disseminate friendly force identification, location, and tracking information. The required services range from training, to user unique device configuration, architecture integration and data dissemination that is unique to each COCOM. Support is primarily for normal operations but also includes surge support for unforeseen national crises in any theater of operations and Continental United States (CONUS) special security event support that requires coordination in the NORTHCOM Area of Responsibility (AOR). Specialized subject matter expertise is required for the multiple Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) hardware types encountered, the multitude of common operating picture data dissemination architectures available, the complexity of each end user group's concept of operations and is critical to providing the necessary rapid response in support of deploying forces.

This notice of intent is not a Request for Proposals nor does it represent a commitment by Government to pay for any costs incurred by the preparation and submission of data or any other costs incurred in response to this notification. This is a written notice to inform the public of the Government's intent to award on a sole source basis for the requirement. The associated North American Industry Classification System code for this procurement is 541512, (Computer Systems Design Services).

Questions regarding this notice should be addressed to Lisa Gregory-Robinson with subject 'CERTA' via email at [email protected] by COB (4:30PM Eastern Time) January 13, 2017.
