About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime solicitation (SPE7MX24R0029) for electronic components. The procurement involves three contract line items (CLINs) for electronics modules, electronic components, and nonrechargeable batteries, specifically used on weapon systems including MH60R Helicopter, Seahawk, H-60 Aircraft, and Hawkeye E-2C.
Stratus System Inc. (CAGE 3AX04) is the sole source for these items, justified by unique engineering requirements and technical data rights. The solicitation is for a three-year base contract with two option years, with a total estimated value over $2 million. A sources sought notice was posted on SAM.gov from 12/19/23 to 12/27/23, and a market survey in December 2023 confirmed Stratus System Inc. as the only vendor capable of providing these specialized electronic components. The procurement will be conducted under FAR Part 15 for non-commercial items, with technical certification from DLA Land and Maritime verifying the unique nature of the components.

The use of the authority cited in other than 10. U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) above:
AMC 3. Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the actual manufacturer.
The use of the authority cited is based on:
The following AMSC descriptions are-available in DFARS PGI 217.7506 Part 2.
AMSC C. This part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the part. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering 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. (CLIN 0001 and 0003)
