A/RMC 3

Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the actual manufacturer.

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

HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION (73030) HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION (73030) is the OEM for the part(s) mentioned above and is the only source that possesses the unique expertise and knowledge required for its continued support and maintenance. The Government does not own the necessary data or data rights required to purchase this part from additional sources. HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION (73030) retains exclusive rights to the technical data, manufacturing/repair processes, and design information (e.g., proprietary drawings, software code, manufacturing/repair specifications) for these parts. A comprehensive analysis has determined that it is uneconomical to purchase the required data and/or data rights from HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION (73030). The cost of acquiring these rights would significantly exceed the cost of the Procurement from the approved source. Based on the factors outlined above, it is concluded that HAMILTON SUNDSTRAND CORPORATION (73030) is the only responsible source capable of providing the required part, given the Government's lack of data rights and the uneconomical nature of data acquisition or reverse engineering. An Other Than Full & Open procurement is necessary to maintain operational readiness and avoid unacceptable cost, schedule, and performance risks.
