About this file
This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole source contract with Resources Analysis Corporation (RAC) for the Supportability Management Assessment Report Tool (SMART) Software at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD). The SMART software license will provide comprehensive Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) solutions, including Bill of Material loading, data monitoring, software implementation, solution analysis, executive reporting, and data integration services. The contract is for a base period and four option periods through September 30, 2030, with the estimated dollar value redacted in the document.
The J&A demonstrates that RAC is the sole developer of SMART and the only source capable of meeting the Navy's specific requirements. Market research was conducted, including screening mandatory sources like GSA and posting a sources sought notice on SAM.gov from 08/07/2025 through 08/15/2025, which yielded no alternative vendors. The contract is being awarded under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) for a unique software solution that is critical for tracking, investigating, and providing obsolescence solutions across multiple Navy programs. The Requirement Generator and Contacting Officer have verified the minimum needs and determined the cost to be Fair and Reasonable.
