Sole Source Justification
This is an unrestricted sole source action to NARDA HOLDINGS, INC. (Narda/MITEQ) under FAR 13.106-1. The justification states that Narda/MITEQ holds all proprietary data and specifications for the equipment. Developing this item with another source would be cost-prohibitive due to significant engineering, testing, and legal efforts.
