Quick Summary
This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) notice from the Department of the Navy, NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support, authorizing an exception to fair opportunity for the acquisition of PROCESSOR SOLID - AND OTHER REPLACEMENT PARTS. The J&A explains the rationale for awarding this contract without full and open competition, citing that the required items can only be acquired from a sole manufacturer due to proprietary technical data.
Purpose of Justification
This document serves as a "Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition" (J&A), outlining the basis for not soliciting offers from all responsible sources. It is authorized under 10 USC 3204(A)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which permit exceptions when only one or a limited number of responsible sources can satisfy agency requirements.
Acquisition Details
The acquisition is for specific supplies/services, including a "PROCESSOR SOLID" and other replacement parts. Detailed information regarding nomenclature, National Stock Number (NSN), Part Number (P/N), quantity, CAGE code, and unit price is available in the attachments to the original contract action. The estimated value of the acquisition is redacted. The place of performance is Des Plaines, IL.
Rationale for Sole Source
The primary reason for this sole source acquisition is that the required part can only be obtained directly from the actual manufacturer. The government does not possess the necessary technical data to enable competition from other sources, and obtaining such data is not physically available or economically feasible. The identified source is the sole owner of the technical drawings and the only entity with the required technical data to manufacture, test, and certify the item.
Market Research & Future Considerations
Market research was conducted, and the latest configuration has been verified. The government confirms it does not have sufficient rights in the technical data to distribute it to potential new suppliers. No Source Approval Requests have been received from other interested parties. NAVSUP WSS currently has no plans to compete future contracts for this specific item but will assess feasibility if another potential manufacturing source emerges. Future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
