About this file
This document is a sole source justification memorandum for future HMMWV parts under solicitation N0016423Q0294 issued by the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command. The memorandum requests to initiate a direct purchase from a single source due to nuclear weapons surety posing risk to national security. Only one source will be solicited to supply the parts, which are required to support HMMWV vehicles. The justification memorandum cites the urgent need to maintain operational capability of nuclear weapons systems and avoid work stoppages as the basis for limiting competition under the simplified acquisition threshold.
