CJA TACTOM Recert FY24-28-Redacted.pdf

This is a Class Justification and Approval (CJ&A) document authorizing sole source contract actions with Raytheon in Tucson, Arizona for Tactical Tomahawk (TACTOM) Block IV missile recertification and modernization. The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) seeks to procure recertification and modernization of TACTOM Block IV missiles for Fiscal Years 24-28, including an estimated quantity of missiles (specific number redacted) for the U.S. Navy and Foreign Military Sales customers. The contract also covers induction, overhaul, testing, fielding of recertified missiles, refurbishment and modernization of TACTOM platforms, tooling, test equipment, and lab assets necessary for program execution from cradle to grave. The authority to act under this class justification expires on September 30, 2030, with efforts anticipated to be completed by December 31, 2030.

The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as statutory authority for sole source procurement and identifies Raytheon as the only known source possessing required technical knowledge, expertise, data, and facilities to recertify the TACTOM AUR Block IV missile. Key factors supporting sole source award include Raytheon's control of the Level III Technical Data Package and government special tooling and test equipment developed under prior performance-based contracts, Raytheon's unwillingness to sell the Level III TDP required for competitive procurement, and the absence of other suppliers capable of meeting USN Fleet and FMS customer requirements. A sources sought synopsis was issued on SAM.gov on April 17, 2023 with no responses received. The Contracting Officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable, and NAVAIR has no current plans to compete future requirements but will assess feasibility if alternative sources emerge.
