AI summary Beta
NAVAIR (Order 4) plans to award a limited-source delivery order for contractor-owned, contractor-operated unmanned aircraft ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) maritime services using Maritime B-kits #10 and #11. It will be competed only among four companies that already hold Basic Ordering Agreements. It is for information only and is not a request for competitive proposals.
Watch out for
- Limited to four BOA holders. Only the four named companies can be considered, so a small business without one of these agreements cannot compete.
This order will be competed under one of four existing Basic Ordering Agreements (BOAs) to the below vendors
- Information-only notice. The Government says this is not a request for competitive proposals and is not obligated to award.
THIS NOTICE IS PUBLISHED FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS.
