About this file

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for other than full and open competition for a sole-source contract award.

The Defense Logistics Agency Weapons Support (DLAWS) in Warren is awarding a new firm-fixed-price contract to Salvo Technologies, Inc. (8060 Bryan Dairy Road, Largo, Florida 33777) for the NSN 1240-01-545-5147, Government Part Number 4-1250BRE Kit, Boresight. The boresight kit is a weapon system component used on the DVHA1 Stryker platform for sighting and is unique to the Remote Weapon System (RWS) due to its caliber, capability, and ammunition specifications. The contract includes a base quantity of 178 units with a 100% option quantity of 178 units, for a total of 356 units. The total estimated contract value is redacted in the document. The procurement method is acquisition directly from the actual manufacturer under Acquisition Method Code 3, with Acquisition Method Suffix Code D indicating data from additional sources is not physically available.

The justification for sole-source award under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) is based on the government's lack of technical data and specifications for the boresight kit. The government did not contribute to development or testing and does not hold rights to the Technical Data Package (TDP). Reverse engineering to create a competitive TDP would cost approximately $4.4 million and take over an extended period to offset through competitive savings. Market research conducted on August 5, 2025 through a 30-day Sources Sought Notice posted to SAM.gov yielded no responses. No subcontracting set-asides for small businesses are anticipated unless the contract is awarded to a small business entity. The contract was signed by Contracting Officer Jacob A. Silcox on December 1, 2025, and approved by DLA Competition Advocate William Melendez on December 3, 2025.
