About this file
This Single Source Justification document is for a B-1 Rate of Flow Transmitter repair contract with the United States Air Force, issued by the AFSC/PZA at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. The contract is with Ametek (CAGE code 8ATJ5) and includes a basic year and six option years for repairing a specialized B-1 Rate of Flow Transmitter. The contract covers multiple line items including repair, no fault found (NFF), beyond economic repair (BER), over and above (O&A) fees, and surge expedite fees, with each option year spanning a one-year period from December 28th to December 27th.
The justification for a single source award is based on Ametek being the only qualified and approved repair source due to the complexity and criticality of the Rate of Flow Transmitter. The government determined that awarding to any other source would cause an unacceptable delay in mission accomplishment. The total contract value is redacted, and while the government attempted to enhance competition by requesting repair data from Ametek, no response was received. The contracting officer determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that only a single source is reasonably available for this requirement.
