About this file

This document is a Single Source Justification for the simplified acquisition of an Antenna Positioner for the 325th Contracting Squadron at Tyndall AFB. The requirement is for a FLIR systems D300E-UD-SS-000-SS PL01 positioner and associated accessories, as it must be compatible with the current equipment and technology. The Contracting Officer has determined this is a single source procurement, as Teledyne Flir, Inc. is the only manufacturer of this positioner compatible with the existing system. Market research indicates no other sources are available to meet the requirement. The estimated contract cost is not provided. The related federal contract opportunity is a pre-solicitation for the FLIR Systems Positioner at Tyndall AFB, with a solicitation number of FA481923QA088, to be awarded by the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command.

Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)

CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION

April 2021 CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION Page 1 of 2April 2021 CONTROLLED UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION Page 1 of 2

Section A: General Contract Information

Yes NoIs this a Bridge Action as defined in the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan?

Contracting Activity: 325th Contracting Squadron

Project/Program Name: Antenna Positioner

Purchase Request / Local ID Number: TBD

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options):

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

Item must be the FLIR systems D300E-UD-SS-000-SS PL01 to be compatible with current software/systems.

Required accessories:

1x D300-BKT-LSTD Top payload mounting bracket 1x PTU-APS-30V-NA Power Supply Unit 1x PTU-CAB-E-25BO Cable Harness

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

Provide a clear/concise statement of the facts justifying the award of a single source or brand name contract. For example:

(A) Teledyne Flir, Inc is currently the only company that produces an antenna positioner compatible with the current equipment and technology. Buying this commodity as a brand name is much cheaper than replacing all systems to have a wider range of positioners that would be compatible.

(B) The requesting units threat replication system as a whole, requires two positioners to operate. There is currently one D300E on-hand, and one borrowed D300E that was used for initial test/evaluation. This antenna positioner must be identical to what is already on-hand to function as an entire system. Else, a whole replacement of components to maintain compatibility, which would exceed $1M, would be required.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Market research indicates that this requirement is not sole source and this requirement may be aside for small businesses while maintaining a good amount of competition.

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

The product needs to be able to function in coordination with the current positioner being used so in the future, if a new type is acquired for both that would be compatible to the current equipment it may open competition up further. For now with the current technology and equipment available, no steps can be taken to preclude brand name acquisitions.
