Launcher Hard Drives PANRSA25P0000025935
Summary
AI-generated · Aug 24, 2025Mountain Secure Systems is the sole source for renewal of maintenance on specific hard drives used by the Element TEC HWIL Lab. The drives must meet rugged specifications (SLCND), include Parylene coating and CSA/SP1 certification, and carry the leaded Lockheed Martin LMCO part number, ensuring compatibility with existing equipment. Only Mountain Secure Systems has been identified as capable of providing drives that meet all of these requirements; using another brand could negate compatibility and jeopardize data integrity.
The required arrangement is an annual renewable maintenance contract. When faults occur, the lab will contact Mountain Secure Systems for assistance and the maintenance will be carried out per contract terms once a solution is agreed. No solicitation documents exist at this time, and this is a sole-source action, though other responsible sources may submit capability statements or proposals for consideration. If the designated drives are not provided, the lab cannot save critical data from real-world and test events, which could impact BMDS capability; phone calls will not be accepted.
THIS IS A SOLE SOURCE SYNOPSIS. ACC-RSA has a sole source requirement for Mountain Secure Systems. This is a Sole Source with Mountain Secure Systems IAW FAR 13.501(a)(2)(i). IAW FAR 5.207(c)(15) Mountain Secure Systems is the only source capable of fulfilling the Government's requirement for the renewal. The maintenance is an annual renewable contract. When needed, the Element(TEC) HWIL Lab will contact Mountain Secure Systems for assistance with faults in the equipment. Once a solution is agreed upon, Mountain Secure Systems will execute the maintenance in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract. No Solicitation documents exist at this time. This item utilizes North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code of 334111. IAW FAR 5.207(c)(16_(ii) all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The combination of SLCND, ruggedization requirements (Parylene coating and CSA/SP1 certification), the leaded designation, and the specific Lockheed Martin Company (LMCO) part number significantly limited the availability of comparable products. Only Mountain Secure Systems was identified as capable of providing a drive meeting all specified requirements. Using another brand other than Mountain Secure Systems could negate compatibility. If the Element (TEC) HWIL lab does not receive these hard drives, the lab will not be able to save critical data from real-world and test events, which could be detrimental to the United States Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) capability due to lack of critical data. ACC-RSA will not be responsible for any costs incurred by the interested parties in responding to this notice. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. Phone calls will not be accepted.
