About this file

This document is a justification and approval for other than full and open competition on a federal contract. The Navy is seeking to acquire five synthesizers with a national stock number of 5895-01-662-7975 from Cobham Long Island Inc. for a total estimated value of $2,614,437.30. The justification cites 10 USC 3204(A)(1) as the authority, stating that only one responsible source is available as the government does not own the data rights to procure or repair the item from other sources, and it has been deemed uneconomical to pursue acquiring the data or performing reverse engineering. Market research identified Cobham Long Island as the original equipment manufacturer and only known source. The contracting officer will determine pricing to be fair and reasonable prior to awarding the contract to Cobham Long Island on or before December 22, 2023.

A/RMSC R

The Government does not own the data or the rights to the data needed to purchase / contract repair of this part from additional sources. It has been determined to be uneconomical to buy the data or rights to the data. It is uneconomical to reverse engineer the part. This code is used when the Government did not initially purchase the data and/or rights. If only one source has the rights or data to manufacture/repair this item, A/RMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If two or more sources have the rights or data to manufacture/repair this item, A/RMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

This acquisition will be solicited to

COBHAM LONG ISLAND INC - (88379). Based on the market research performed by the technical advocate, it is concluded that the only source of procurement is COBHAM LONG ISLAND INC - (88379). It has been deemed uneconomical to pursue the acquisition of the data because the data and it's content are not available. The Government does not own the data, or the rights to the data needed to openly compete this procurement requirement. Only the source listed above, who is the OEM, maintains the design and manufacturing standards via design drawings, manufacture procedures, and quality assurance procedures. There are no authorized substitutes of this item as this is the only item known to meet performance and compatibility requirements within the higher assembly. Furthermore, there is no data to support an open and full competition. The item has to be tested within the upper assembly and qualify within approved testing specifications procedures, embedded coding procedures, design protocols, and internal QA requirements. The Government does not have the data/or is not authorized to use the data, to approve alternate sources. There are no known authorized distributors/dealers for this NIIN.

15 MAR 2019 Class Waiver of the Requirement to Post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement

The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on 03/18/2023 and as a result NO OTHER SOURCES HAVE EXPRESSED AN INTEREST IN PROPOSING ON THIS ACQUISITION.

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, FLIS 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 sourced of supply, historical sources of supply and past contracts. Based on this market research the contracting officer has determined that the only known procurement source is COBHAM LONG ISLAND INC - (88379). 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. ITIMP- Reviewed award history and other potential sources of supply, AMC/AMSC code, part number, CAGE code. ERP- Search criteria included part number, design control activity, Cage code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, Criticality Coding which all matched with ITIMP.CRITICALITY CODE: X THE ITEM DOES NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR HARDENED FEATURE OR ANY OTHER CRITICAL FEATURE SUCH AS TOLERANCE, FIT RESTRICTION OR APPLICATION. A review of the databases listed in the market research did not reveal, nor identify, any known distributors.

The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable. The Contracting Officer will perform cost/pricing analysis to determine that pricing is fair and reasonable prior to awarding.
