About this file

This document contains a single source justification and federal contract opportunity solicitation for Deutz diesel engine assembly kits. The single source justification identifies the Deutz Model D2011L04i diesel engine as the only approved engine that can be used on BAK-12 energy absorbers and MAAS due to EPA and National Security exemptions. Efforts to obtain competition included posting the brand name justification and a combined synopsis on SAM. The related federal contract opportunity solicitation seeks 30 Deutz Diesel Engine Assembly Kits, P/N D2011L041 to support BAK-12 energy absorbers and MAAS for the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command. Failure to procure these approved items would prevent compliance with technical order criteria and MAJCOM customer requirements.

Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition)

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

November 2018 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY Page 2 of 2

Deutz diesel engine assembly kit is an integral part of a BAK-12 energy absorber and the MAAS. The diesel powered rewind (retracting) engine installed on BAK-12 energy absorbers and MAAS is required to meet multi-fuel requirements for worldwide deployments and contingency operations. Failure to continue with standardization of these systems will have significant long term impacts to strategic goals for reductions of operational parts, spare provisioning costs and increased integration costs for non-standardized diesel engine assembly kits. Procurement of Deutz brand name equipment is essential to the Government's requirements, thereby precluding consideration of a product manufactured by another company.

The Deutz diesel engine is the only engine that has been approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and has received a National Security Exemption under 40 CFR 1068.225(b).

The AAS Engineer, Robins AFB has published a letter identifying the Deutz diesel engine Model # D2011L04i as the only approved engine that can used on the BAK-12 and MAAS

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

The Deutz Diesel engine assembly kits are available from numerous vendors. A combined synopsis/solicitation, along with this brand name justification, will be posted on beta.SAM prior to awarding the purchase order in an attempt to reach as many companies as possible who may be able to fulfill this requirement

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

The user and contracting agency will continue to survey the market place to locate any new prospective contractors that are responsible sources and are able to compete on future acquisitions.

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.
