NSWCCD SAP Non-Competitive Procurement Justification Memo Effective April 2025

MEMORANDUM FOR FILE

FROM:

CODE: 623

TO: Code 02

DATE:

SUBJECT: Non-Competitive Procurement Justification Memo for Actions Under SAT

I. BACKGROUND

1. FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) states for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, Contracting Officers may solicit from one source if the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available.

2. FAR 8.405-6 allows for limiting sources for orders or BPAs under Federal Supply Schedules under certain circumstances or for items peculiar to one manufacturer

3. As required by FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i), FAR 8.405-6(a)(1), or FAR 8.405-6(b)(2), this memorandum explains the absence of competition for this acquisition, as only one source will be solicited for this requirement (or for a portion of the requirement) and the requirement is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.

II. DESCRIPTION OF ITEM OR SERVICE (Include manufacture/sole source name and address.)

The RDT&E software that is a component of this metrology platform package is needed by code 623 personnel in support of the Ohio Replacement Program Model Fabrication, SSW, SSN(X), LSV and NGT.

This software is essential to the support of the ORP model currently being constructed.

The PCDMIS software will be used by engineering technicians responsible for measuring complex manufactured parts that are designed by engineers. The application imports a model file (such as one created in AutoCAD, Rhino, or SolidWorks) in the form of a IGES file (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification). The data points acquired by measuring techniques are compared to CAD models to ensure that all manufactured parts are within the allowed tolerance. This is a critical need because without this application projects could use parts that are out of tolerance. If parts are not verified using metrology techniques, the chance of having an unsuccessful test greatly increases. The quantity is 1 and the required delivery date

Manufacturer: Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, Inc Address: 250 Circuit Drive, North Kingstown, RI 02852 USA
