About this file

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) from the Department of the Navy, NAVSUP WSS in Philadelphia. The document covers the acquisition of a COMPUTER, DIGITAL DA (NSN 5895014584314, P/N 13225798-01) through a non-competitive procurement process. The acquisition is justified under 10 USC 3204(A)(1) because only a limited number of sources can satisfy agency requirements, specifically due to the item being a Critical Application Item (CAI).

The procurement is for repair/overhaul of the digital computer, with an expected final delivery date of 12/31/2029. The Navy indicates that the current source is the only approved vendor with the technical data required to repair, test, and certify the item. Market research confirmed no alternate sources are currently available, and the Navy does not possess sufficient technical data rights to support a full and open competitive solicitation. NAVSUP WSS will continue to encourage vendors with expertise to submit technical data packages for future source approvals, and future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
