Place of Performance: Warren, MI, United States

Justification

The procurement is justified as a sole-source action because the Government lacks the necessary Technical Data Package (TDP) or specifications for competitive re-procurement. Oshkosh Defense LLC (CAGE: 75065, Part#: D009U867) is identified as the sole manufacturer and owner of the technical data for this specific axle assembly. Market research confirmed no other identical sources, and reverse engineering was deemed too costly and risky to develop a competitive TDP.
