This is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) document from the Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Weapon Systems Support (WSS) at Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. The document justifies a single-source contract award for Circuit Card Assembly spares (NSN 5998-01-627-3909, P/N 77A126680P1/12-0376/CC1072) with an expected final delivery date of June 1, 2026. The contracting action is categorized as Type A1 and is based on the statutory authority of 10 USC 3204(A)(1), which permits procurement from limited sources when only one or a limited number of responsible sources can satisfy agency requirements under FAR 6.302-1.

The J&A identifies LOCKHEED MARTIN CORP (CAGE 03538) and MERCURY SYSTEMS INC (CAGE 3X893) as the only known sources capable of satisfying the requirement, as they possess proprietary data and rights necessary to manufacture or repair the item. The document notes that BAKER & ASSOCIATES INC (CAGE 55670) and PIONEER INDUSTRIES INC (CAGE 66200) are also known distributors of Mercury Systems products. NAVSUP WSS must procure from either LOCKHEED MARTIN CORP or MERCURY SYSTEMS INC and their authorized distributors. The justification includes market research conducted in accordance with FAR Part 10, with results redacted in the document. The contracting officer has determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable. Actions to remove barriers to future competition include encouraging vendors to develop manufacturing or repair expertise and advertising future requirements on the government-wide point of entry, though no plans currently exist for competing future contracts for this specific item.
