About this file
This document is a Sole Source Justification for Commercial Items (J&A) issued by the Department of the Navy's NAVSUP WSS (Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support) in Mechanicsburg, PA. The justification is for procuring a relief valve (NSN 1HM 4820 010742177 X5, Part Number 202030QM51M) through a non-competitive acquisition method. The procurement is based on statutory authority 41 U.S.C. 1901 and Federal Acquisition Regulation Subpart 13.5, with the primary rationale being that the government cannot obtain the technical data rights to manufacture or repair the part from alternative sources, and reverse engineering would be uneconomical. The required delivery date is 02/26/2027, and NAVSUP WSS indicates they will continue to encourage potential vendors to submit technical data packages to enable future competition, though they currently have no plans to compete this specific contract.
