ISSUE DATE 12-JUL-2023 – CLOSING DATE 21-JUL-2023 – 5:00 PM Eastern Time
ITEM DESCRIPTION- Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a requirement for a quantity of two (2) Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), Part Number WS3XBP-54 and with a lead time of 36 weeks from award date.
SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT- The proposed contract action is for the supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source only, Annapolis Micro Systems, Inc., of Annapolis Maryland, Cage 5A626, , under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). This is being solicited on a sole source basis because acquisition of the gate array from other than the Original Equipment Manufacturer is impractical due to lack of technical documentation such as drawings and assembly instructions and the tooling required. Additional, acquisition from an alternate vendor would require extensive qualification testing where costs could not be recovered due to low quantity of items being acquired. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, which shall be considered by the agency. However, a determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
