Section A: General Contract Information

Contracting Activity: AFTC/PZIOAB

Project/Program Name: 96 SK/SKA, Air Force SEEK EAGLE Office (AFSEO)

Purchase Request/Identification Number: F1T4AD8159A101

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options):

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

CLIN 0001 [Brand Name]: Leica ScanStation P30 Standard Package, P/N 6009376, Manufactured by Leica Geosystems, Inc., Long Range up to 885 ft/270m at 34% Reflectivity, Speed up to 1 million points per second, and 3d Positional Accuracy of 3mm at 50m, 6mm at 100m, with configuration requirements/options. This is a brand name requirement and direct replacement for a meteorology class laser scanner to collect 3d geometric data required to develop high fidelity Computer Aided Design (CAD) models. This action will result in a firm fixed price purchase order.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

The current AFSEO Leica HDS7000 meteorology class scanner has suffered a catastrophic hardware failure and requires replacement. The replacement is critical to continue CAD modeling support to AFSEO's aircraft-store certification mission.

Leica ScanStation P30 3D Laser Scanner is a direct replacement with 10 years of technology advancements over AFSEO's current Leica HDS7000 scanner that is currently unserviceable. It is capable of scanning full aircraft down to store size targets with +/- 0.03 inch accuracy.

The Leica P30 ScanStation utilizes the same software as the Leica HDS7000. This software is already approved with a Certificate of Networthiness (CoN). The CoN is required for software and authorizes the software for use on the AFSEO's SEEK EAGLE Engineering Analysis Research Development Enclave (SEARDE). This software is on the SEARDE Authority to Operate (ATO) approved software listing baseline. All software is required to go through a SEARDE Configuration Control Board process for approval to run on the network. The approval process can take approximately 12-18 months and the first check is whether the software is already approved for operation on the SEARDE. Currently, there is no other hardware or software approved for use on the SEARDE to replace the Leica scanner software and utilizing already approved software minimizes mission impact in regards to time, cost, and training.

Access to the AFSEO's CAD models play a critical role in the aircraft-store development, integration, and aircraft-store certification processes. The AFSEO's Leica HDS7000 Terrestrial 3D Laser Scanner is an indispensable tool in efficiently and accurately collecting data required to develop CAD models. Failure to replace will result in a continued loss of the AFSEO's laser scanning capability and ultimately restrict access to unrestricted government owned CAD models. The CAD models are used throughout the AFMC, USAF, and DoD and result in significant cost savings over purchasing unlimited data rights CAD Models from the original equipment manufacturers (OEM). Procuring the Leica P30 ScanStation with already approved software presents the best value to the Government. Not having the Leica ScanStation P30 with already approved software would lead to significant delay to the mission.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)

20 Apr 2017 Page 2 of 2

Although other meteorology class scanners exist in the marketplace, the Leica ScanStation P30 scanner is a direct replacement that utilizes software already approved via a required CoN and ATO. There is no other hardware or software approved for use on the SEARDE and utilizing already approved software minimizes mission impact. The Leica ScanStation P30 system will not require training on operation and data processing or present potential mission stoppage due to extensive approval processes required for new software.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards

We will continue to evaluate other equipment to determine if future efficiencies/economies can be gained. At that time, we will strive for competition among manufacturers.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
