North Atlantic I/O Boards Sole Source

Solicitation / RFP / RFQ

This document is a Single Source Justification for the acquisition of 12 North Atlantic Industries 64G5 6U VME Multifunction I/O (Input/Output) Boards. These boards are required for the 519th F-16 Pre- and Post- Block operational Flight program (OFP). The parts are manufactured by North Atlantic Industries and sold exclusively by Kampi Components Co.

• 12 units of North Atlantic Industries 64G5 VME Multifunction I/O Board (P/N: 64G5-2-RY1RY1RY1RY1RY1RY10BC10).

• Delivery within 180 Days After Receipt of Order (ARO).

• The vendor is Kampi Components Co Inc, located at 88 Canal RD, Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, 19030-4302.

• The estimated contract cost is not explicitly stated but includes options.

• The vendor is a small business with Cage Code 7Z016.

This document is a justification for a sole-source acquisition, not a solicitation for proposals. Efforts to obtain competition included searches on 2GIT and NASA SEWP, and RFIs posted to 2GIT, GSA, and NASA SEWP, which yielded zero quotes.

This acquisition is being justified as a sole-source purchase from Kampi Components Co. because North Atlantic Industries exclusively distributes its government sales through this vendor and will not sell directly to the government.

• The justification cites unique and technically superior features of the North Atlantic I/O boards, essential for seamless integration with existing systems and avoiding costly modifications.
• Choosing a different supplier would introduce severe operational delays, including estimated code modification and a 6-7 month work stoppage for integration and testing.
• The Contracting Officer determined that a single source is reasonably available in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
• Future single-source justifications are anticipated, but the government will continue to search for alternatives.
