813 Irving-Wick Dr W Heath, OH 43056 Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition

17E-111 A-DC

II. Nature and/or description of the action being processed.

The action will be awarded as a new sole source FFP

Ill. Description of supplies/services required to meet agency needs.

Under the contemplated contract, the manufacturer of the awarded contract will provide the products and services outlined in the Statement of Work for Combined Calibration Group (CCG) project .

The end product is to develop and deliver a new calibration system for the ratio transformers (DT72A and 73) to the AFPSL, and deliver the technique/methodology to calibrate the ratio transformers (DT72A, 73, 101 OA, and 1011) in the PMELs. Two calibration systems shall be delivered to the AFPSL with the ability to calibrate the DT72A and 73 to the current specifications in AF calibration Technical Order 33K8-5-339-1 or better (indicated below). A calibration method shall be delivered for the DT72A, 73, 101 OA, and 1011 calibration in the PM Els to the specifications in AF Technical Order 33K8-4-1030-1 or better and indicated below. Both the AFPSL and PMEL ratio transformer calibration processes shall also determine and include new correction factors for each dial setting at each calibrated frequency and V/Hz setting. The end deliverable product shall be two complete turnkey systems that will be used by the AFPSL for the calibration of the AFPSL working standard DT72A and 73, and the calibration procedure and methodology to perform the calibration of the DT72A, 73, 101 OA and 1011 in the PMELs. The ratio transformer calibration systems shall include all hardware, software, and support equipment necessary to calibrate the ratio transformers.
