6. Description of Efforts Made to Solicit Offers from as Many Offerors as Practicable.
A waiver of DFARS PGI 206.302-1, Sources Sought requirement was approved on 4 December 2023. In accordance with FAR Subpart 5.201, the proposed contract was synopsized on the SAM website on December 1, 2023. No responses were received. Any future responses will be evaluated by the Procuring Contracting Officer prior to award.
No additional market research was conducted because it is not practicable, for the reasons discussed in paragraph 5 above, for any company other than Collins to provide the required supplies and services.
7. Determination of Fair and Reasonable Cost.
The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies/services covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable.
8. Actions to Remove Barriers to Future Competition.
For reasons set forth in paragraph 5, NAVAIR has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the types of supplies/services covered by this document. If another potential source emerges, NAVAIR will assess whether competition for future requirements is feasible.
