The use of the authority cited above is supported by the following Acquisition Method Code (AMC) and Acquisition Method Suffix Code (AMSC) of each NSN, which was confirmed as complete and accurate by the Strategic Acquisitions Program Directorate (SAPD) Product Specialist on 5/20/2022 during the technical review of the NSNs for placement on this long-term contract initiative and was confirmed again on 10/26/2022. See the Technical Certification attached to this memorandum.

AMC 3: Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the manufacturer.

AMSC D: The data needed to acquire this part competitively is not physically available, it cannot be obtained economically, nor is it possible to draft adequate specifications or any other adequate, economical description of the material for a competitive solicitation. AMCS 3, 4, or 5 are valid.

AMSC R: The Government does not own the data or the rights to the data needed to purchase this part from additional sources. It has been determined to be uneconomical to buy the data or rights to the data. It is uneconomical to reverse engineer the part. This code is used when the Government did not initially purchase the data and/or rights. If only one source has the rights or data to manufacture this item, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If two or more sources have the rights or data to manufacture this item, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

5. The approved source listed in the table above in paragraph 4, confirmed by the SAPD Product Specialist during the technical review of the NSNs for placement on this long-term contract initiative on 5/20/2022 and 10/26/2022, is currently the only known source to maintain the data for

SOLICITATION SPE7MX23R0014

CUI - Source Selection Information – see FAR 2.101 and 3.104 the products with AMSC D and is the only source that possesses the complete technical data and rights to the data for the products with AMSC R.

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

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

The solicitation will be posted to DIBBS.

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’s Price Index (PPI), and a learning curve analysis. Offerors may also be required to submit information other than certified cost or pricing data if deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer in order to determine prices fair and reasonable. Based on the above techniques, the Contracting Officer anticipates the costs to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

8. Market Research/Efforts to Obtain Competition:

A Sources Sought Notice was posted 6/2/2022 for seven days to SAM.gov. Vendors were requested to provide the name, location, and points of contact for any sources able to manufacture the items to the acquisition specialist listed in the announcement. In addition, a market survey was attached to the Sources Sought Notice for interested vendors to complete and return. Potential sources would be added to the solicitation mailing list. No responses were received.

Market Surveys were sent to the manufacturing source Aviation Devices and Electronics Components, LLC (Av-DEC) and seven dealers appearing in the procurement history:

CUI - Source Selection Information – see FAR 2.101 and 3.104

Additional research was also conducted by the acquisition specialist as indicated in the bullets below.

Researched items on-line via the internet for commercial availability. All items were either found for sale or available for sale on the internet. NSN items #1, #3, #4, #5, and #6 have contracts on the GSA Advantage website.

Reviewed Technical Guidance Information (TGI) in the Material Master (MM). NSN item #11 was identified as a commercial item with a Y in its COTS field, the field for the remaining NSNs was blank. NSNs except #15 were transferred to DLA Land and Maritime as part of the 2020 Industrial Hardware NSN realignment.

Reviewed previous procurements of the items for acquisition method. All 15 NSN items are currently on long-term contracts. NSN items #1-#13 are currently on contract SPE5EY18-D-0533 that expires 5/22/2023, NSN item #14 is on contract SPE7L3-22-D- 62NZ that expires 03/02/23, and NSN item #15 is on contract SPE7MX-21-D-0029 that expires 02/25/24. Contract SPE5EY-18-D-0533 is a commercial contract on Standard Form 1449 and the NSN items contained on the contract were procured under FAR part 12 commercial procedures. The current contracts for NSN items #14 and #15 were not procured under commercial procedures.

Based on the market research, the Contracting Officer has determined the items to be commercial and they will be procured under FAR part 12 procedures.

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

Based upon the technical certification on file in DLA Land and Maritime-VEP, 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.

During the project development stage, the NSNs included on this solicitation were provided to the DLA Land & Maritime Value Management (VM) Unit and the Strategic Acquisition Programs Directorate (SAPD) Product Specialist for review; no additional sources were identified during those reviews, and all means to obtain a technical data package adequate for manufacture of the items has been exhausted.

10. A listing of sources, if any, indicating an interest in the acquisition: Av-DEC, CAGE 1NPE1.

11. The items are subject to the following methods of locating additional sources in an effort to overcome barriers to competition:

The solicitation will contain DLAD Procurement Notes: L04-Offers for Part Numbered Items and M06-Evaluation of Offers for Part Numbered Items. Offers for alternate products may be submitted in response to the solicitation and may be considered for the current or future procurements.

SOLICITATION SPE7MX23R0014

CUI - Source Selection Information – see FAR 2.101 and 3.104

Forecast information is available to all potential sources for both sole source and competitive items. The DLA Supplier Requirements Visibility Application (SRVA) is a database that is available via the DLA internet Bid Board System (DIBBS.) SRVA provides potential sources the opportunity to search for information on DLA’s anticipated requirements based on updated monthly forecasts. Essentially it provides 24 months of sole source and competitive projected purchase order quantities. Potential alternate sources for current sole source items can easily see DLA’s forecasted procurements and can contact the Value Management Unit to become approved sources for sole source and code and part number items. The DLA Land & Maritime Value Management Unit continually seeks out sole source, limited competition, over-priced, low reliability and hard to buy items to improve their value and support posture. The DLA Land & Maritime internet website contains information for all potential sources on how to challenge prices, how to submit a Value Engineering Change proposal, a link to DoD’s Value Engineering program and the necessary contact info for both the DLA Value Engineering program and the DoD Value Engineering program.

12. A J&A could not be located for SPE5EY-18-D-0533 and SPE7L3-22-D-62NZ was automated and did not require one. Prior J&A for SPE7MX-21-D-0029 is attached and the actions were accomplished: the solicitation was synopsized, issued in DIBBS, dealers were solicited, and solicitation contained DLA Procurement Notes M06 - Evaluation of Offers for Part Numbered Items and L04 - Offers for Part Numbered Items. No alternate offers were received.
