About this file
This is a Memorandum recommending other than full and open competition for a hardware procurement by the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD).
The procurement is for Pasternack-manufactured RF components required to support pre-launch tests for RF equipment integrated into ship builds. Two specific items are being acquired: 34 units of PE83IR1017 Dual Function Isolators with 40 dB isolation from 2GHz to 4 GHz, 50 Watts, SMA Female connectors, and 5 units of PE20DV1183 8 Way SMA Power Dividers from 2 GHz to 4 GHz rated at 30 Watts. Delivery is required no later than 24 July 2026. Market research has determined that Pasternack Inc. is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and the only source capable of providing components that meet the physical design and specification requirements needed for the current builds, as these are direct replacements for existing isolators. The memorandum notes that switching to alternative hardware would result in duplication of effort costing in excess of six months of personnel hours for research, procurement, installation, and familiarization, which cannot be recovered through full and open competition and would cause delays to the current testing schedule. The document includes certification statements indicating the facts are accurate to the best of the certifying official's knowledge and that the Contracting Officer has determined only one or limited sources are reasonably available.
