The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Tactical Technology Office (TTO) intends to award a sole source contract to Mustang Technology Group for a follow-on effort in order to continue further development and testing of the CROSSHAIRS system. Mustang has previously received a DARPA-funded contract to perform research and development activities related to their proprietary CROSSHAIRS system. The intended new effort will require Mustang to further develop and demonstrate a complete, vehicle-based threat detection and protection system comprised of threat detection sensors; processing, fire control, and displays; and real-time response mechanisms. Mustang will support system integration and testing on two MRAP vehicles. Mustang is the only source known to the Government with the requisite capabilities, facilities, and experience to perform the follow-on CROSSHAIRS effort within the Government's cost and schedule constraints. 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 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), “Only One Responsible Source” (see FAR Part 6.302-1). It is likely that award to another source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation is currently available. However, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. Responses/proposals received within forty-five (45) days after date of publication of this notice will be considered by the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open basis is solely within the discretion of the Government. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to meet the requirements by submitting a white paper and past performance data by no later than 2 October 2009 to DARPA/CMO, Attn: Mr. Chris Glista, 3701 North Fairfax Drive, Arlington, VA 22203-1714 or via email to [email protected]. All questions shall be submitted to the above email address.
