This is a Justification Review Document for a single source determination submitted by the National Guard Bureau for procurement of Wilcox Aeronox Night Vision Goggle (NVG) mounting configurations.

The National Guard Bureau is procuring 45 complete Wilcox Aeronox NVG mounting configurations for use with Ops-Core HGU-100 A/P helmets. Each configuration consists of one Wilcox Aeronox Mount (P/N 62100G12-B), one Wilcox Aeronox Battery Pack (P/N 62100G11-B), one Aeronox Interface Plate Adaptor (P/N 62108G23-B), and 45 interface plate adaptors, plus height. The procurement is authorized under Technical Order 14P3-4-204-1 WP 99 00 for Loadmasters conducting Specialized Fueling Operations (SFO). The contract is structured as a new firm fixed-price contract with a fund type of O&M, Air. The single source justification cites 41 U.S.C. 1901 as implemented in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), asserting that the specified Wilcox Aeronox components are the only items meeting government requirements due to technical authorization, form-fit-function compatibility, airworthiness and safety considerations, and lack of interchangeable alternatives. Market research confirmed no other vendors produce compatible TSO-aligned interface plate and mount systems, and Wilcox Industries Corp. is identified as the original equipment manufacturer with items available only through Wilcox or authorized distributors. The document indicates the requirement was not previously procured and requires inclusion of the MFR with solicitation per FAR 13.106-1(b)(3).
