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.

Product Specialist, , certified the following on 9/21/2023:

Derbyshire Machine & Tool Co (71905), Globe Composite Solutions, LLC (82094) and Electric Boat Corporation (96169) are the only sources capable of making this item. The Government does not own or possess the data or drawings for full and open competition. The approved sources are the only source known to possess the required drawings. There are not currently any 339’s out to the Engineering Support Activity (ESA) and current information indicates that the item is not a commercial item. Technical Data Certification is attached. (See Attachment #1)

The use of the authority cited above is supported by the following Acquisition Method Code (AMC) and Acquisition Method Suffix Code (AMSC) of the NSN; which were confirmed as accurate by the Land Product Specialist on 10/10/2023. (See Attachment #2)

6. Efforts to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable are:

A Sources Sought Notice was posted to www.SAM.gov on 9/21/2023 for 9 days.

The acquisition will be synopsized in SAM.gov at least 15 days prior to issuance of solicitation.

The solicitation will be posted DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) for 30 days.

7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

A price analysis will be conducted using historical pricing, the Producer Price Index (PPI), and learning curve analysis. Cost or pricing data in accordance with FAR 15.403-4 will be requested if the offer exceeds the $2M threshold for obtaining cost data, however, it is anticipated that this procurement will not exceed that threshold.

Offerors may be requested to submit information other than cost or pricing data for determining price reasonableness. Based on the above techniques, the Contracting Officer anticipates that the cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

8. Market Research/Efforts to Obtain Competition:
