History

Market research was conducted in accordance with far part 10. The results of the market research conducted (or the reason(s) market research was not conducted) are as follows

A technical review, which consisted of searching several Government databases including ITIMP, WebFLIS and ERP, has been completed on this item. Search criteria included Part Number, Design Control Activity, CAGE Code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, Criticality Coding, recorded approved source of repair, historical sources of repair and past contracts. Based on this market research, the Contracting Officer has determined that the only known repair source for this item is BAE SYSTEMS LAND & ARMAMENTS LP (44114). If a company other than the one listed believes they have a compatible product, they can submit the item to the Engineering Program Office, to include research and development, drawings and test specifications. The program office may test and evaluate the item at the company’s expense, when appropriate. Upon qualification, the approved company will be able to participate in current or future solicitations. The review in ITIMP included reviewing award history and other potential sources of repair, AMC/AMSC code, part number, CAGE code. In ERP, the search criteria included part number, design control activity, CAGE code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, and Criticality Coding, which all matched with ITIMP.

The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable. Prior to contract award a final fair and reasonableness determination will also be made.

To promote competition, NAVSUP WSS will continue to encourage vendors with the expertise to manufacture/repair the subject item to submit a complete technical data package for review and source approval by the appropriate engineering source approval authority per the (WSS) guidelines.

Also, future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.

For reasons set forth in Paragraph (5 & 6), NAVSUP WSS has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the subject item covered by this document. If another potential manufacturing source emerges, NAVSUP WSS will assess whether competition for future requirements is feasible. Also, future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
