JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

SOLICITATION SPE7MX23R0064

DLA Land and Maritime J&A Other Than Full and Open Competition 2

6105005578760, MOTOR, DIRECT CURRENT. This motor is used in conjunction with several gate valves. Gate valves are most commonly used where pressure remains relatively low, but temperature may be very high. While commercially available or aftermarket direct current motors may be similar to the item being procured, any aftermarket or alternate source parts would have to be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and evaluated by the Engineering Support Activity (ESA). The Government does not have the data or rights to the data, and it is not economical for the Government to obtain or otherwise develop the data. ITT Aerospace Controls, LLC (73760) is the only known source to possess the complete technical data and rights for this item. They are the only vendor listed as an approved source by the design control activity. Therefore, they are the only source uniquely qualified to manufacture this item and the only approved source listed for this item.

For the reasons above, the approved parts must be procured.

Further, the Product Specialist (PS) certified that the technical information, including the approved source and AMC/AMSC codes, is complete and accurate on 12/16/2022. The PS also certified that DLA does not possess adequate data, lacks rights to data, and has no record of an alternate approved source. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Government.

The procurement item descriptions (PIDs) are included as Attachment 1.

The use of the authority cited is based on:

AMC 3. Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the manufacturer.

AMSC C. This part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the part. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having jurisdiction over the part in the intended application. If one source is approved, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources are approved or if data is adequate for an alternate source to qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid. (6105005578760)

AMSC R. The Government does not own the data or the rights to the data needed to purchase this part from additional sources. It has been determined to be uneconomical to buy the data or rights to the data. It is uneconomical to reverse engineer the part. This code is used when the Government did not initially purchase the data and/or rights. If only one source has the rights or data to manufacture this item, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If two or more sources have the rights or data to manufacture this item, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid. (4810012520503)
