The use of the authority cited is based on:

[ x ] AMSC C. This part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the part. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having

DLA Land & Maritime Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (November 2021) jurisdiction over the part in the intended application. If one source is approved, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources are approved or if data is adequate for an alternate source to qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

Product specialist, Brian McNamara, certified the technical data on 09/25/2024:

This item is an AMC/AMSC is 1/C. DLA does not possess adequate data, lacks rights to data, and/or has no record of an alternate Design Control Activity approved source. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Government. There is no outstanding DLA Form 339 request for additional sources.

6. Efforts to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable are:

[ X ] The acquisition will be synopsized for 15 days prior to solicitations opening on DIBBS for 30 days.

7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

a. A price analysis will be conducted using historical pricing, the Producer Price Index (PPI), and learning curve analysis. Cost or pricing data in accordance with FAR 15.403-4 will be requested if the offeror’s proposal exceeds the $2M threshold for obtaining cost data, however, it is anticipated that this procurement will not exceed that threshold. Offerors may be requested to submit information other than cost or pricing data for determining price reasonableness. Based on the above techniques, the Contracting Officer anticipates that the cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

8. Market Research/Efforts to Obtain Competition:

The PO history shows multiple past awards. The most recent award was to Brown Helicopter on 6/23/2023 for a price of $17,890.00.

A source sought was posted on 10/24/2024 and was posted for 5 business days. One response was received from BPHE (9SWS7) and the SARS package forwarded.

DLA Land & Maritime Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition

BROWN HELICOPTER, INC (5V361)

Techniques used to conduct survey: Email

Types of information requested: Business size, manufacturer or dealer, commerciality, price breaks, minimum order quantity, and estimated delivery

Summary of information received: BROWN HELICOPTER CORP (00198) stated that “We do not have the requested material in stock. .” PRATT & WHITNEY CANADA CORP (00198) is a subcontractor to CANADIAN COMMERCIAL CORP (98247) (a Government of Canada entity). CANADIAN COMMERCIAL CORP (98247) stated, “Unfortunately, P&WC will not fill out the market survey, this is against our policy. Our quote should suffice on this quote request.”

Information received regarding the commerciality of the item(s): No market surveys were returned. No results were returned on GSA or CID database. Market research did not yield any readily available published catalog price lists, schedules, or other forms of commercial pricing that are regularly maintained and updated by a manufacturer or vendor, and that are available to the general public for inspection. There is no evidence of sale prices at which sales were made to a significant number of buyers constituting the general public. Therefore, the Contracting Officer determines this item to be non-commercial, thus FAR 15 procedures will be utilized.

9. Additional facts supporting other than full and open competition are:

[ x ] Based upon the attached technical certification, technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Government.
