About this file

This is a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity or to Use Brand-Name Restriction, issued by the United States Air Force (AFSC/PZIEB) at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma on January 18, 2024. The contracting activity is AFMC AFSC OL:T/PZIMB, with Purchase Request/Local ID Number Alexsys 15046 under the AFSC 72 ABW/555 SWES program.

The procurement is a brand-name justification for VIAVI Solutions test equipment, which will be a delivery order to an approved Department of Defense vendor through Sam.gov. The Air Force asserts that VIAVI Solutions is the only manufacturer capable of providing the required supplies. The supplies required include five line items: (1) AVX-1OK-MIL Military Flight Line Test Set Kit (P/N: AVX-1OK-MIL, Qty: 1); (2) AVX-1OK-FAMILY Flight Line Test Set Configurator (P/N: AVX-1OK-FAMILY, Qty: 1); (2a) AC10K-UC-584S Coupler Kit (P/N: AC10K-UC-584S, Qty: 1); (3) PSD90-3 AC/DC Fuel Quantity Test Set (P/N: PSD90-3, Qty: 1); (4) PSDAF-KC135 Interface Unit FQIS (P/N: 57993, Qty: 1); and (5) ALT-8000 Radio Altimeter Test Set (P/N: 87340, Qty: 1). Delivery is required four weeks after receipt of order (ARO) to 555 SWES at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. The justification states that VIAVI Solutions produces military-grade, rugged hardware required for a Software Integration Lab (SIL) being created from a retired KC135 aircraft for Air National Guard training on Line-Replaceable Units, and that the quality and consistency of VIAVI products are essential to ensure accurate test results across different software configurations.
