The use of the authority cited is based on:

[X] AMSC D.

[ X] The acquisition will be synopsized for 15 days on SAM.gov prior to the solicitation opening.

[ ] Manufacturers of similar products identified in the market research will be solicited.

[ ] Dealers of the manufacturers will be solicited.

[ ] A synopsis exception cited in FAR 5.202 applies. (explain) [ ] Other. (Explain)

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 offeror’s proposal 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.

Techniques used to conduct survey: E-mail correspondence.

Types of information requested:

Minimum order quantity.

Estimated delivery.

Summary of information received: On November 5th ASRC Federal Facilities Logistics (79343) responded to the market survey. They provided the information below.

Business size: Small Manufacturer or dealer: Dealer Commerciality: No

Information received regarding the commerciality of the item(s): The market survey received back from ASRC states NSN 7005988614 is not a commercial item.

No results were returned on GSA or CID database. Market research did not yield any readily available published catalog price lists, schedules, or other form of commercial pricing that are regularly maintained and updated by a manufacturer or vendor, and that are available to the general public for inspection. There is no evidence of sale prices at which sales were made to a significant number of buyers constituting the general public. Therefore, the Contracting Officer determines this item to be non-commercial, thus FAR 15 procedures will be utilized.

9. Additional facts supporting other than full and open competition are:

[ X] Based upon the attached technical certification, technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Government.

10. A listing of sources, if any, indicating an interest in the acquisition is: ASRC Federal Facilities Logistics responded to the market survey stating they would be interested in providing a quote.
