About this file
This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for Other Than Full and Open Competition for repair services of the Commercial Fire Control Computer (CFCC) for F-16 aircraft. The contract will be awarded to BAE Systems Technology Solutions & Services Inc. for $19,588,060.80.
The contract is for a 5-year repair services IDIQ contract with BAE Systems as the sole source provider, with performance from September 2023 to September 2028. It covers repair of CFCC NSN 1270-01-569-015WF P/N 57737A1000000-01/02 installed on F-16 Block 25/30/32 aircraft. The estimated quantity is 670 repairs at $26,832.96 each, with additional provisions for No Fault Found, Beyond Economical Repair, Over & Above, and Test & Evaluation work. BAE Systems is identified as the only capable source due to their proprietary source code ownership, with the government's attempts to purchase data rights being refused by BAE between 2010-2022. A cost evaluation determined that reverse engineering would take 5 years and cost over $10.9M, making it economically unfeasible. The J&A was approved through multiple levels of authority between December 2022 and February 2023.

1. The government routinely engages in efforts to overcome barriers to competition on the CFCC by attempting to procure data rights and exploring reverse engineering opportunities. The sole source contractor (BAE) is unwilling to provide or license data, and the government is unable to justify a reverse engineer project based on the results from the BOE detailing a five year developmental timeline as well as duplication of costs.
