About this file
This is a Justification for Sole Source Acquisition document supporting a competitive restriction for a specialized calibration instrument. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (DLA) is procuring a Block Level with 15-arcsecond inclination accuracy with respect to gravity from Warren-Knight Instrument Company (manufacturer located at 2045 Bennett Road, Philadelphia, PA 19116; POC: Edward Markowski, 215-464-9300). The estimated contract value ranges from $15,000 to $350,000, with delivery required to Bremerton, WA 98314.
The justification restricts competition to Warren-Knight as the sole source because it is the only item of its kind approved by the Calibration Lab and fully supported by the Metcal Program. The equipment must be compatible with existing systems presently installed and represents the minimum requirements of the government. The procurement is being issued as a 100% Total Small Business Set Aside using commercial and simplified acquisition procedures under FAR Parts 12 and 13.5, resulting in a firm fixed-price supply contract with FOB Destination terms. The related solicitation (SPMYM2-26-Q-7157) requires offerors to submit completed pricing, all representations and certifications, manufacturer information, fully executed solicitation packages, and current SAM.gov registration, with questions to be submitted via email and all pages of the completed solicitation package required for consideration.
