This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a non-competitive contract awarded by the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division. The contract is a five-year, firm-fixed-price, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) supply and repair contract for Eyesafe Laser Range Finders (ESLRF) with L-3 Technologies, Inc. The contract supports repair components, spares, and testing for Multi-Spectral Targeting System (MTS) Electro-Optic/Infrared (EO/IR) Systems used on various Navy aircraft platforms.

The J&A justifies sole-source procurement based on L-3 Technologies being the only qualified contractor capable of providing the required supplies and services. The total estimated cost of duplicating the development efforts is $2,159,080, with a potential development and integration timeline of 16-24 months. The government conducted market research via a Request for Information on SAM.gov, receiving two responses, but determined that L-3 Technologies remains the most suitable vendor due to their unique system design, test, and component interface knowledge.
