About this file

This is a Justification and Authorization (J&A) document for other than full and open competition issued by the Department of the Navy, NAVSUP WSS in Philadelphia.

The Navy seeks to procure a Blade, Rotary Rudder (NSN 1615-017082535, P/N 70101-31000-054) through a sole-source contract award. The item has been designated a Critical Safety Item (CSI), limiting qualified sources to a single approved manufacturer identified in the JDRS CIM record. The acquisition is authorized under 10 USC 3204(A)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, based on the rationale that only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The Navy determined that the item requires engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain part quality, and the sole approved source possesses exclusive data rights, manufacturing knowledge, and technical data not economically available to the Government. Market research was conducted in accordance with FAR Part 10, and a class waiver of the requirement to post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost will be fair and reasonable. The document notes no previous J&A award history exists. Multiple Navy personnel provided certifications including the Logistics Management Specialist (Grigor Lakuriqi), Technician (Mark Venango), Contract Specialist/Buyer (Dana Scott), Competition Advocate (Johnny Brown), Attorney (Keith Lipiec), and Head of Contracting Activity (Lynn Kohl), with final approval signed by the Contracting Officer (Christie Gummel) on May 9, 2024.

4. Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full & Open Competition

This J&A is based upon the authority of 10 USC 3204(A) (1), only one or a limited number of responsible sources will satisfy agency requirements, as implemented by FAR 6.302-1

5. Rationale Justifying Use of Cited Authority

A/RMC

Acquire, for the first time, directly from the actual manufacturer.

A/RMSC

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/repair knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition/repair of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing/repair 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, A/RMCs 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, A/RMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

This acquisition will be solicited to

(Redacted) Per JDRS, this item has been deemed a Critical Safety Item (CSI), thus limiting qualified sources. The acquisition of the item listed above will be solicited to (Redacted) because they are currently the only capable source with the technical data required to manufacture, test, and certify this item prior to unit delivery and is the sole approved manufacturing source identified in the JDRS CIM record. All alternate sources must qualify IAW the DCA's procedures, as approved by NAVAIR prior to contract award. Since the Navy does not possess sufficient rights to information such as drawings, specifications, and/or test equipmenVprocedures, a full and open competitive solicitation cannot be supported. NAVSUP-WSS must procure the item from (Redacted)

6. Description of Efforts Made To Solicit Offers From as Many Offerors as Practicable

15 MAR 2019 Class Waiver of the Requirement to Post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement

The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on and as a result

Market research was conducted in accordance with far part 10. The results of the market research conducted (or the reason(s) market research was not conducted) are as follows

(Redacted)

(Redacted) The latest configuration has been checked and all records (ITIMP, JDRS, etc.) have been properly aligned, identified, and documented. This item has been deemed a Critical Safety Item, thus limiting qualified sources. Per JDRS, (Redacted) is the only approved source at this time. The data necessary to solicit this item from sources other than (Redacted) is not physically available and is uneconomical to obtain. The available technical data is insufficient for the development of new sources. Source Development Department files indicate no Source Approval Request (SAR) has been received from any party interested in becoming an approved source. (Redacted) is the only approved source at this time.

7. Determination of Fair And Reasonable Cost

The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable.

8. Actions to Remove Barriers to Future Competition

For reasons set forth in Paragraph (5 & 6), NAVSUP WSS has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the subject item covered by this document. If another potential manufacturing source emerges, NAVSUP WSS will assess whether competition for future requirements is feasible. Also, future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
