Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy (NAVSUP WEAPON SYSTEMS SUPPORT MECH) has published a Justification and Approval (J&A) for an exception to fair opportunity for the acquisition of Cartridge And Propellant Actuated Devices And Components (PSC 1377). This action, based on 10 USC 3204(A)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, cites that only one or a limited number of responsible sources can meet agency requirements. The place of performance is Hollister, CA. This notice was published on May 5, 2026.
Scope of Work
This J&A covers the acquisition of VARIOUS spares, repair/overhaul, modification, management, piece parts, and data reports. These items are detailed in Attachment A and are on a Source Controlled Drawing owned by the Government. The Government lacks sufficient rights in the technical data to distribute to potential new suppliers.
Rationale for Limited Competition
- The items must be acquired from or repaired by sources specified on a source control or selected item drawing.
- Suitable technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing/repair knowledge are not available to permit acquisition from other sources.
- These parts are identified as Critical Safety Items and are highly specialized.
- There are no known distributors for these items.
Efforts to Promote Competition
NAVSUP WSS will continue to encourage vendors with the expertise to manufacture/repair the subject item to submit a complete technical data package for review and source approval. Future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
