Solicitation N00421-16-T-0221 is issued as intent to sole source. The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed-price basis, and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase order on a sole source basis with Delta Gear, Inc., under the authority implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) by FAR Part 13.106-1(b). The requirement is to manufacture Ryder Drive Shaft and Ryder Test Gears. The drive shaft must be manufactured IAW Navy drawings D-G56374 & d-G56375. While each pair of Ryder gears will consists of a "narrow" gear conforming to Navy specification drawing number NAPC 930416, and a "wide" gear conforming to Navy specification drawing number NAPC 930417 with the stipulation that gear involute profiles equal "zero". All gears must also conform to the Material and Heat Treat Specification Numbers 584362 & 65321 for Ryder Test Gears. Utilizing a source other Delta Gear would require conducting new research, testing, interface, certifications, etc. at a significant cost to the government, which is unrecoverable in this small procurement. It is imperative that the original source be used to maintain certification, interoperability, and commonality among fielded gears.
This is a total set-aside for small business under the authority of FAR Part 52.219-6.
