4. Statutory Authority_fermitting Other Than Full and Open Competition

10 U.S.C. 2304(c) (1) — Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

5. Rationale Justifying Use of Cited Statuto~ Authority

The planning and preparation for accomplishment of a refueling complex overhaul of a nuclear aircraft carrier is extremely complicated and of a highly technical and specialized nature.

The work requires planning for alterations to ship systems and inspection, test and repair of systems and components as well as design of infrastructure improvements to enable the ship to be maintained, upgraded and operated with only normal maintenance under the Incremental Maintenance Program. The work is further complicated by planning the simultaneous refueling and overhaul of two nuclear reactor plants.

NIINC is (a) the original building yard contractor for all ships of the CVN 68 class, (b) the reactor planning yard, (c) the lead design refueling yard, and Cd) the only shipyard capable of refueling and overhauling a nuclear powered aircraft carrier. Therefoize, it is the only source with the -knowledge, experience, and facilities required to plan and prepare for the CVN 73 RCOI-1 without an unacceptable disruption of Navy—wide overhaul and repair schedules.

HIINC is the only responsible source able to satisfy the agency’ s requirements.
