Purchase of Rolls Royce Tools for C130J Transition

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for a brand name procurement. It outlines the rationale for restricting competition to CUDA II Inc, the sole authorized tooling distributor for Rolls Royce.

• Authority: FAR 12.102(a), FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1 for FAR Part 12.
• Justification Type: Brand Name - Items peculiar to one manufacturer.
• Supplies/Services: Specialized aerospace maintenance tools and fixtures for engine assembly, handling, maintenance, and brake release operations.
• Intended Use: To support the stand-up of Air Station Sacramento and Air Station Clearwater for C-130J aircraft.
• CLINs:
  • CLIN 1: ENGINE SLING ASSEMBLY (4 each)
  • CLIN 2: C130J ENGINE ADAPTER (4 each)
  • CLIN 3: FIXTURE WIND GUST BRAKE RELEASE (2 each)
  • CLIN 4: STAND (2 each)
• Suggested Source: CUDA II INC (CAGE ISWTO), 1910 S GIRL SCHOOL RD INDIANAPOLIS, IN 46241.
• Rationale: Rolls Royce exclusively owns the rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings for these highly specialized items. It is deemed uneconomical for the Government to acquire these rights or develop the necessary technical data to reverse engineer the items. The items require specific safety, durability, and reliability standards that can only be met by the OEM or an OEM-approved source.

This document indicates that the upcoming procurement is restricted to a single source, CUDA II Inc, due to the proprietary nature of the specialized tools and fixtures required for C-130J aircraft maintenance. Bidders should note that this is not an open competition opportunity for these specific items.
