About this file
This document is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) from the Department of the Navy's NAVSUP WSS (Naval Supply Systems Command) in Mechanicsburg, PA. The document seeks to acquire an AIR COMPRESSOR (NSN 4310-01-187-5041, Part Number MLG7666AG1) through sole-source procurement from Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp, citing that they are the only known source capable of manufacturing and repairing this specialized item. The procurement is justified under 10 USC 3204(A)(1), which allows for limited competition when only one or a limited number of sources can satisfy agency requirements.
The technical market research conducted included searching government databases like ITIMP, FLIS, and ERP, which confirmed Curtiss-Wright as the sole historical and current repair source. The government does not own the technical data rights to solicit repairs from alternative vendors, and reverse engineering the part is deemed uneconomical. The document indicates the proposed contract action was synopsized on 03/15/2025, with NAVSUP WSS committing to encourage potential vendors to submit technical data packages for future source approval, though they currently have no plans to compete this specific contract.

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 source of supply, historical sources of supply and past contracts. Based on this market research the contracting officer has determined that the only known repair source is CURTISS-WRIGHT ELECTRO-MECHANICAL CORP . If a company other than the one listed believes they have a compatible product or repair process, 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, when applicable, the item at the company’s expense. Upon qualification, the approved company will be able to participate in current or future solicitations. ITIMP- Reviewed award history and other potential sources of repair, AMC/AMSC code, part number, CAGE code reflects CURTISS-WRIGHT ELECTRO-MECHANICAL CORP as the only source of repair in the past. ERP - Search criteria included part number, design control activity, Cage code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, and Criticality Coding which all matched with ITIMP.
The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable.
