Justification and Approval (J&A)

This document justifies the use of other than full and open competition for a five-year, firm-fixed-price, indefinite delivery indefinite quantity contract. The contract is for test support requirements for the Spectrum 9100 test stations, including electronic modules and factory acceptance testing for the D5LE Program. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division is the contracting activity.

The procurement includes spare equipment, subassemblies, cables, consumable parts, maintenance and repair services, instrument calibration, training, engineering, configuration, instrument obsolescence reporting, and program management support for the Spectrum 9100 test stations. This support will cover current configurations and future engineering changes, upgrades, and technology refreshes.

• Contract Type: Firm-fixed-price, indefinite delivery indefinite quantity

• Period of Performance: Five years

• Estimated Total Value: Not explicitly stated, but funding is allocated across FY26-FY30.

• Teradyne, Inc. is the original source, having designed, developed, and manufactured the Spectrum 9100.

• Teradyne holds unique technical data and corporate knowledge for the system.

• The Spectrum 9100 has specific hybrid synchronous digital pin capabilities (512 pins, +/- 30V range, up to 50MHz speeds) that no other manufacturer meets in a single, compatible test system.

• Using common test equipment has resulted in cost avoidance, decreased downtime, and increased test/development capacity.

• Establishing an alternate source would result in substantial duplication of costs and unacceptable delays.

• Teradyne will not sell or license the technical data package.

• Reversing engineering the test stations is estimated to be costly and time-consuming, with funds not currently available.

Extensive market research was conducted, including contacting potential vendors and online searches. Only Teradyne was found to meet all requirements. No other vendors offer comprehensive support for Teradyne equipment, hardware/software configuration, or preventative maintenance for the system as a whole.

The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable.

At this time, there are no plans to compete future contracts for these services. NSWC Crane will assess feasibility if another potential source emerges.
