This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for commercial products and services at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). It details the rationale for restricting competition for a specific procurement.

• Supplies/Services Required: Repair of 4 (ea) EGI (Engine Guidance Indicator), Part Number: 3358481-5, with an optional quantity of 4 (ea). The material is installed on the HC-130J Aircraft.
• Suggested Source: Honeywell International, located at 13350 US Highway 19 North, Clearwater, FL 33764-7226. Their UEI is LXR8CJQ8J9J7 and Cage Code is 0BFA5.
• Rationale for Restriction: Honeywell or a Honeywell-approved repair facility is the sole entity with the necessary engineering data, equipment, tooling, and drawings to repair the EGI. Honeywell is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and has not sold repair data to other vendors.
• Price Determination Method: Market research was conducted, and the primary method used was a comparison of the proposed price with prices found reasonable on previous purchases. Other methods considered include current price list, comparison with similar items, Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE), and contracting officer's personal knowledge.

This document indicates that the procurement for the repair of EGIs for the HC-130J aircraft is being restricted to Honeywell International or its approved repair facilities due to unique capabilities and proprietary data. Bidders should note that this is a sole-source justification, limiting competitive opportunities for this specific repair service.
