1.3.5 20260002526 One Source Justification 26Mar2026 Redacted.pdf

This is a Commercial Only One Source Justification (NTE SAT) document filed under IAW RFO 12.102(a) for Naval Supply Fleet Logistics Centers (FLC).

The purchase request number is 20260002526 and covers the inspection, reconditioning, and spare parts provision for a Hubtex brand Missile Side Loader (MSL) drive unit. Competition is restricted solely to Hubtex North America, Inc., the original equipment manufacturer. The government justifies this single-source award based on technical requirements necessitating seamless integration of two HUBTEX brand Multidirectional Side Loader drive units into an existing HUBTEX MSL system without modification. The OEM holds proprietary technical data, internal specifications, and specialized tooling required to ensure the item meets exact form, fit, and function standards for safe and effective operation. The document notes that acquiring items from non-OEM sources would introduce significant technical risk due to tolerance and material composition deviations potentially causing system failure. The government does not possess the technical data package required to compete this effort, and the cost and time required to reverse-engineer or qualify alternative sources would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the mission requirement. The work must be performed at the OEM-authorized repair facility in accordance with the Performance Work Statement (PWS).
