JA Spirent Renewal 2025 SIGNED Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for the Spirent Renewal 2025 project managed by AFTC/PZI (Holloman). The purpose is to obtain software and firmware updates/upgrades, remote technical support, and maintenance support for the 746 Test Squadron's Spirent simulator systems, with coverage for the current year plus options for two additional years.

The justification explains that Spirent Federal Systems Inc. is the sole source as they developed the GPS simulators owned by the government. The 746 Test Squadron currently owns 18 different simulators requiring continuous software updates and support. Market research confirmed no other sources could provide the required updates and support due to proprietary rights. The estimated cost for comparable alternatives would exceed $11M, and switching vendors would delay mission schedules by 1-2 years. The contracting officer determined this single-source procurement is reasonably justified under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
