About this file

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for an Other Than Full and Open Competition contract award. The J&A cites 10 USC 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority, indicating that only one or a limited number of responsible sources can satisfy the agency's requirements. The rationale is that the government does not own the data or rights needed to purchase the repair services from additional sources, and it would be uneconomical to obtain the data or reverse engineer the part.

The proposed contract will be awarded to L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES INC 91417, the only approved repair source that has met the qualifications to repair this highly specialized part. Market research did not identify any other known distributors or repair sources. The anticipated cost to the government is deemed fair and reasonable. To promote future competition, the agency will encourage other vendors with the expertise to manufacture/repair the item to submit technical data packages for review and source approval.
