TelAztec Treated Windows

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE NOTICE CAREFULLY AS IT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY NOTICE THAT WILL BE ISSUED.

This is a combined synopsis and solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6-Streamlined Procedures for Evaluation and Solicitation for Commercial Items, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.

The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to award a purchase order on a sole source basis to TelAztec, LLC. CAGE Code: 3EDM6. TelAztec's patented etching process alters the glass surface to achieve anti-reflection (AR) properties. These unique properties are required to meet parameters for testing and analysis purposes. Substituting with a standard surface application AR coating would render these analyses largely irrelevant, resulting in unnecessary expenditure of funding and resources, as well as an unacceptable schedule slip.

This solicitation is not a request for competitive quotes. However, all quotes received by the closing date will be considered by the Government for future requirements. A determination not to compete this proposed requirement based on responses to this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the Government. Quotes received will normally be considered solely for the purposes of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future.
