Justification & Evaluation
This acquisition was justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing that the item is available from only one or limited sources. Market research, including a Sources Sought notice posted on SAM.gov on October 2, 2024, yielded no responses. The justification is based on the item being acquired from a manufacturing source specified on a source control drawing (16VM003005-1, CAGE 81755), where technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge are not available from other sources. Reverse engineering was determined to be uneconomical.
