About this file

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support. The acquisition is for 40 Hardware Ket Mechanic Equipment units for a Littoral Combat Ship, with a firm-fixed price contract and a 100% option. The primary manufacturer is Defense Maritime Solutions LLC, and the sole source justification is based on AMSC P code, indicating that the government does not own the rights to the manufacturing data and it would be uneconomical to reverse engineer the part.

The market research included a Sources Sought Notice on SAM.gov, a market survey contacting three vendors (Pioneer Industries, Hoosier Industrial, and Phoenix Industries), and internet searches, which yielded no additional potential sources. Pioneer Industries was the only vendor to respond, acting as a dealer for Defense Maritime Solutions. The acquisition will be synopsized on SAM.gov for one day and then posted on the DLA Internet Bid Board for 15 days. The contracting officer has determined the anticipated cost will be fair and reasonable, with a price analysis to be conducted based on proposed and historical pricing. The maximum contract value is redacted, and the solicitation contains provisions for submitting alternate offers.
