This is a sources sought announcement performed by the United States Army Contracting Command on behalf of the Project Director, Joint Products in order to identify interested and capable sources for the potential U.S. Government (USG) Fiscal Year (FY) 2016-2020 procurement of the MK84 Fin Assembly. The current estimated quantity is 700-1, 000 MK84 Fin Assemblies per year for 5 years. The end users of these items are The United States Navy and The United States Air Force.
The USG will consider whether consolidating this procurement of the MK84 Fin Assembly with a planned procurement of the BSU-33 Fin Assembly is necessary and justified in accordance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 207.170-3 (BSU-33 sources sought notice was dated 3 July 2014, Solicitation Number W52P1J-14-R-00161). If the USG consolidates the procurement of these fin assemblies, a single consolidated Request for Proposal would be issued for both items and a resultant contract would be issued for USG FY 16 requirements of both items. The current estimated quantity for BSU-33 Fin Assemblies is 10, 000-20, 000 per year for 5 years beginning in FY 16.

Responses:
Interested companies are invited to indicate their interest by providing the USG the following information: a brief summary of the company s capabilities (a description of the facilities, personnel experience, quality system, and past manufacturing experience) and their availability.

Any potential key subcontractors should also be addressed, by indicating which key components or processes would be subcontracted and providing a brief summary of potential key component and/or process subcontractors.
Respondents are encouraged to address the feasibility of or alternatives to the USG s preferred lead-time of 300 days after award for First Article Test (FAT) completion and report submission, and 420 days after award for production deliveries to commence (within 90 days after FAT approval). Interested companies should provide any minimum production requirements and any production limitations; to include whether the USG s planned quantities as stated within this announcement meet or exceed minimum production requirements. Respondents should also note any significant lead times with equipment or materials associated with production of the MK84 Fin Assembly and any impact those lead-times may have upon the ability to meet USG preferred lead-times. If respondents are also interested in the BSU-33 Fin Assembly procurement, they are requested to identify whether these two items can be tested, produced, and delivered concurrently, or whether consecutive schedules are requested based upon current capabilities.
In addition, please provide responses to the questions contained in the additional questionnaire linked with this sources sought notice to provide the USG a comprehensive understanding of your capabilities and past experience.
