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

The use of the authority cited is based on:

[X] AMSC D. The data needed to acquire this part competitively is not physically available, it cannot be obtained economically, nor is it possible to draft adequate specifications or any other adequate, economical description of the material for a competitive solicitation. AMCS 3, 4, or 5 are valid.

• Product Specialist, , certified the technical certification on 1-27-25.

This item is an AMC/AMSC of 3/D. This item supports the Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV), is not a critical application item and is not a Critical Safety Item (CSI). IVECO Defence Vehicles A PA, (A4249) and Brembo SPA, (A4435) are the only source capable of making this item. The Government does not own or possess the data or drawings for full and open competition. The approved source is the only source known to possess the required drawings. There are not currently any 339’s out to the Engineering Support Activity (ESA) and current information indicates that the item is not commercial or commercial-of-a-type. Technical Data Certification is attached.

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

[X] The acquisition will be synopsized on or about 15 days on SAM.gov prior to the solicitation opening. At the completion of the synopsis period, the Purchase Request (PR) will be solicited on the internet for 30 days via

SAM.

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

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:

• This is a first time buy and this acquisition was initially solicited under simplified acquisition procedures since it was estimated to be under $250,000. Since the quotes received exceeded $250,000, this requirement is being resolicited under FAR Part 15. The following vendors submitted quotes on the original SAT solicitation:

1. Hoosier Industrial Supply Inc. (0RCD8), Pioneer Industries LLC (66200) and OS 2 Corp

(4QBJ8) all stated that the item was not a commercial item.

Market research through GSA, CID and with general internet search 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 on 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.
