About this file
This memorandum documents a sole source justification for a federal contract award. Mercury Systems is the only certified supplier of 2-channel down converters that meet all functional, performance, and environmental requirements for use in the Navy's Photonics Imaging Mast systems. Developing and certifying a second source would require at least 18 months and cost an estimated $2.5 million. Awarding to Mercury Systems on a sole source basis would prevent unacceptable delays and duplication of costs associated with establishing a new supplier. The related solicitation was issued by the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command for downconverters to support repair of Photonics Imaging Mast units until they reach end of life.
