BNO JA - Warrior Pak._Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification document for a simplified acquisition by the 355th Contracting Squadron for the RQS Warrior Pak project. The 48th Rescue Squadron is procuring six Warrior Pak Rec²i Deck units (brand name only) to equip Pararescuemen with a ruggedized, reliable man-portable power source for advanced life-saving medical equipment. The units will power critical devices such as ventilators and fluid warmers during personnel recovery missions in austere environments where conventional power access is unavailable.

The justification for single-source procurement is based on mission criticality and interoperability requirements. The Rec²i Deck is identified as the only known system capable of meeting the power demands of advanced life-saving equipment required for prolonged field care in austere conditions. The contracting officer conducted efforts to obtain competition, including reviews of the Air Force Strategic Vehicles list, UNICOR/FPI, GSA Advantage, and identification of potential Women-Owned Small Business vendors, but determined no other vendors could fulfill the requirement under schedule pricing. The contracting officer determined on April 9, 2026, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that only a single source is reasonably available. Future requirements will seek equivalent technology alternatives from other manufacturers or distributors through the General Services Administration to preclude future single-source awards.
