Justification for Sole Source

The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with Other Than Full and Open procedures in accordance with FAR Part 6.302 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). This is due to the Government not owning production-level technical data, making Honeywell International the only known source with adequate knowledge and capabilities to repair the F-15E's Air Data Processor and ensure equipment compatibility.
