Bombardier Sole Source Justification CO Signed Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification form for a simplified acquisition from the U.S. Air Force. The contracting activity is 319 CONS/PKB, and the contract action concerns the FY 27 Bombardier Subscription with a purchase request/local ID number of FA465926QZ022. The estimated contract cost is redacted in the document.

The supplies/services required include a subscription to Bombardier Flight Deck 3, a flight application designed to provide pilots with centralized access to flight documentation, technical orders, and aircraft manuals. The application enables automatic Temporary Revision (TR) updates, user content control, and aircraft serial number-specific information input. The justification for single-source procurement emphasizes that Bombardier Flight Deck 3 is the currently utilized application across remaining E-11 fleets domestically and downrange, and continuity is imperative for mission success. The application provides pilots with license code entry capability, automatic document synchronization and cataloging, FAA/EASA/TC compliant audit trails for paperless operations, and is the only application with proper authorization and clearance for E-11 operation groups. The Contracting Officer, TSgt Trenton Cott, determined on August 12, 2026, in accordance with RFO 12.102(a), that circumstances of this contract action justify single-source procurement as only one source is reasonably available. The document notes that market research was conducted via Internet searches and subject matter expert consultation, and there are no actions the Government can take to remove barriers to competitive award.
