JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

SOLICITATION SPE7MX-21-R-0073

DLA Land & Maritime Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (May 2018) or data rights are not in Government possession and cannot be economically obtained. If one source is available, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources exist, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

Eaton Aerospace (02750) and Parker Hannafin (93835) are the only manufacturing sources specified on the source control drawing. All means to obtain a technical data package adequate for manufacture of the item have been exhausted. The Product Specialist, on 02/16/2021, confirmed technical data for NSN 5930-01-060-7268 was complete, accurate, and up to date. The AMC/AMSC code of 3B was confirmed by the Product Specialist, and that the approved sources are Eaton Aerospace (02750) and Parker Hannafin (93835).

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

[X] The acquisition will be synopsized on or about April 16, 2021 for 15 days. At the completion of the synopsis period, this PR will be solicited on the internet for a minimum of 30 days via the DLA Internet Bid Board System

(DIBBS).

[X] Dealers of the manufacturers will be solicited.

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

The buyer will utilize price analysis techniques such as comparison to past purchases of same item to determine price reasonableness. Informal cost/price data will be requested if determined to be necessary. Buyer will also utilize PPI Data. PPI Data provides timely, accurate price and cost analysis, and historical records for thousands of commodity prices and wages around the globe, allowing procurement professionals to understand supplier cost structure and better negotiate supplier quotes. The buyer anticipates receiving more than one offer, and adequate price competition between dealers is expected to exist at time of evaluation of offers. Based upon the above techniques, the Contracting Officer hereby determines that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.
