This document is a Sole Source Justification (NTE SAT) submitted in accordance with FAR 12.102(a) for a Naval Supply (NAVSUP) Fleet Logistics Centers (FLC) commercial procurement.

The procurement covers various adapter and connector components required for reinstalling antenna systems and preparing electronics on the USS HIGGINS DDG76. Purchase Request Numbers N62758-6166-7553 through 7574 are included in this justification. The estimated cost including options and required delivery/point of performance details are redacted in the document. The specified manufacturer is GLENAIR, INC., with manufacturer contact information also redacted. The justification restricts competition exclusively to GLENAIR, INC. based on the rationale that these parts are integral to existing GLENAIR systems already in use aboard USS HIGGINS DDG76 and must be compatible with current GLENAIR-manufactured items. GLENAIR controls the design, characteristics, and production through proprietary engineering drawings, specifications, and inspection requirements. The justification emphasizes that no authorized alternative suppliers exist and that GLENAIR fittings cannot be interchanged with items manufactured by competitors. The document includes certification statements affirming the accuracy and completeness of information provided and acknowledgment that sole source processing precludes competition to the maximum extent practicable. Signature blocks for the requiring activity representative and FLCPS contracting officer are included.
