JA25-103 Hammonds - Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for the 354th LRS (Logistics Readiness Squadron) requiring Hammonds Technical Services to provide a Fuel Powered Additive Injector Cart (PFAICS) for converting commercial Jet-A fuel to JP-8 for aircraft operations. The document justifies a single-source procurement, noting that Hammonds Technical Services is the only vendor identified with a TO-compliant FSII (Fuel Systems Icing Inhibitor) injector system that meets Air Force technical and operational standards.

Market research was conducted from August 5-11, 2025, including internet searches, GSA Advantage, SAM.gov reviews, and a Notice of Intent to Sole Source, which yielded no alternative vendors meeting the technical requirements. The contracting officer determined that a single source is reasonably available. To mitigate future single-source dependencies, the government plans to conduct comprehensive market research, engage industry stakeholders, explore emerging technologies, and perform targeted outreach to small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB firms.
