About this file
This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document (NSWC-PHD-JA-25-084) for a non-competitive procurement by Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD).
NSWC PHD seeks to award a firm-fixed-price contract on a brand-name basis for Nemix or Kingston branded 32GB RAM to support ship operations. The specific part numbers are ML19200-324K1-G and/or ML19200-324K01-G (Nemix) and KSM24RD4/32HDI and/or KSM24RD4/32MEI (Kingston). These RAM modules function as temporary storage locations within configurations, enabling faster file retrieval and improved application performance. The procurement is justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), citing only one responsible source or limited responsible sources available. The estimated dollar value table is present but redacted in the document.
The justification details extensive technical qualification efforts supporting the single-source determination, including supply chain risk management and counterfeit avoidance analysis conducted per SAE AS5553, SAE AS6171, SAE ARP6328, and NAVSO P-7000 standards. Both Nemix and Kingston brands passed Functional Qualification Testing (FQT) and Environmental Qualification Testing (EQT) in approved configurations. The document notes that qualifying an alternative brand would require substantial duplication of testing costs (approximately a redacted amount) with no recovery through competition. A sources-sought notice posted to NASA SEWP and SAM.gov from April 29 to May 8, 2025, yielded four responses on SAM.gov and none on NASA SEWP. The Contracting Officer, Brian Carpenter (0271), approved the justification on June 5, 2025.
