Attachment 6 Sole Source Justification_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification form for specialized technical engineering services supporting the Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Division Newport, Code 25. The document justifies a sole source contract with Lockheed Martin (LMC) for specialized engineering services related to the OHIO Class (SSGN) Submarine Command and Control System's Data Processing Subsystem (DPS), specifically for the Mission Critical Workstation (MCW) that will remain active until platform decommissioning.

The justification emphasizes LMC's unique expertise, noting they are the Subject Matter Expert (SME) with a complete understanding of existing DPS software and hardware components. The document highlights that LMC developed the Multi-Function Server (MFS) in a MIL SPEC shock-qualified interface, and that their specialized software is timing-dependent and handles legacy information translation. The contract is for continuing engineering support of shipboard and non-shipboard electronic systems, with the Contracting Officer certifying that LMC is the only source reasonably available for these critical technical services.
