Description

General Announcement

THIS NOTICE OF INTENT/SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE IS FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY.

Program Manager, Intelligence and Cyberspace Operations (PM ICO) within Portfolio Acquisition Executive – Marine Corps (PAE-MC) provides this sources sought and notice of intent to award on a sole-source basis in accordance with 10 United States Code (U.S.C.) §3204 (a)(1), as implemented by the Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Overhaul (RFO) 6.103-1(b) to Anduril Industries Inc., 1400 Anduril, Costa Mesa CA 92626-1548, CAGE: 85LD7, Unique Entity Identifier: KC3CH2MSK7Q3.  The PMICO has a requirement for the procurement of fifteen (15) Maritime Targeting Cell (MTC) Shelter Systems, comprising (8) eight Operator Shelters and seven (7) Processing Shelters.  These highly specialized, expeditionary, road-transportable, dual-shelter systems are required to support the urgent operational imperatives and timelines of the MTC program.  These systems will provide a secure, self-contained, and ruggedized operating environment for conducting sensitive intelligence operations in contested and austere forward-deployed environments.

         2. Basis for Sole-Source Justification

Comprehensive market research was conducted across industry, including the evaluation of various vendor capability statements submitted in response to a previously posted Request for Information.  Based on the responses received and technical analysis of market capabilities, the following was determined:

Intended Source & Lack of Competition: Anduril Industries Inc. (1400 Anduril, Costa Mesa CA 92626-1548) is the only known source capable of satisfying the Government’s urgent operational requirements without unacceptable technical risk, cost duplication, and schedule delay. Competition is lacking because no other vendor possesses a mature, field-tested production configuration that provides turnkey integration with the Government-specified MEP-1070 generator set while concurrently meeting all expeditionary physical footprint, modularity, road-transportability, and operational security parameters. Technical & Integrated Architecture: The proprietary baseline developed by Anduril Industries provides pre-engineered structural, environmental, and tactical power integration with the required MEP-1070 generator set. This turnkey architecture is critical to minimizing the logistical footprint, ensuring rapid deployment, and significantly reducing setup time in austere, forward-operating environments. Programmatic & Schedule Impact: Alternative vendor concepts reviewed during market research would require extensive re-engineering, power integration/distribution redesign, and developmental qualification, to include environmental and flight/road-transport certifications. Pursuing an alternative development effort would introduce programmatic delays, creating an unacceptable operational gap in meeting mission-critical fleet deployment timelines for the MTC program.

The Government anticipates award of a Firm-Fixed-Price delivery order, with a period of performance of approximately two (2) years. In tandem with executing this sole-source action and for all future opportunities, PM ICO will continue to conduct market research, monitor emerging industry capabilities, and actively pursue competitive acquisition strategies to the greatest extent practicable for future MTC program lifecycle and follow-on requirements.

           3. Capability Statement Submission Instructions
