Sole Source to Teledyne Instruments Inc. for MK11 Cable Assembly per attachments

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) is seeking to acquire five SDV MK11 W36 Cable Assemblies from Teledyne Instruments Inc. The requirement is not suitable for full and open competition due to the custom-manufactured nature of the cable assemblies and the lack of other approved manufacturers. The contract will be awarded using simplified acquisition procedures with a total dollar value above micro-purchase levels but not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. Key points to consider: • The contract is for a firm fixed price order • The cable assemblies are custom-manufactured for the SDV • Teledyne D.G. O’Brien is the only source capable of meeting this requirement • The Government’s minimum needs have been verified by certifying technical and requirements personnel
