JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

SOLICITATION [SPE7L125Q0280]

DLA Land & Maritime Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (November 2021)

Product Specialist, , certified the technical data certifications on 10/25/2024 (attachment 1).

o DLA does not possess adequate data, lacks rights to data, and/or has no record of an alternate

Design Control Activity approved source. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Government.

o There is no outstanding DLA Form 339 request for additional sources.

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

[ X ] The acquisition was synopsized on SAM.gov on 11/21/2024 to 11/24/2024. The purchase request (PR) will be solicited on the internet for a minimum of 10 days via the DLA Internet Bid Board System

(DIBBS).

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

This is a definite quantity contract, for a quantity of 1 unit. A price analysis will be conducted using historical pricing, the Producer Price Index (PPI), and learning curve analysis. Cost or Pricing data is exempt from the requirement for certified cost or pricing data per FAR 15.403-1(c)(3). If the Contracting Officer determines that the product claimed to be commercial is not, and no other exception or waiver applies for it, a request for certified cost or pricing data will be submitted. 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:

Market research consisted of review of past procurements, past market surveys received, and internet sources (Google, Bing, Vendor Websites).

No results returned through GSA Advantage when searched.

Haystack has no significant technical characteristics listed to utilize.

EBS Procurement History:

A sources sought notice was posted to SAM.gov on 10/16/2024 to 10/21/2024 and an inactive date of 11/05/2024. A market survey copy was provided in the notice post for any interested parties to complete and return. No responses received.

[ X ] A market survey was not conducted due to:

o Recent acquisition procurement conducted under solicitation SPE7L124Q0793 by same buyer and same item already conducted a market survey with a near 6-month timeframe. No significant changes have been included on this NSN requirement since the last procurement, and thus, no new information is expected to be received that hasn’t been already. The information from the market survey received months ago from TIMKEN GEARS & SERVICES INC. (17454) is provided below.
