The Government does not own the data, or the rights to the data needed to openly compete this procurement requirement. Only the source listed above, who is the OEM, maintains the design and manufacturing standards via design drawings, manufacture procedures, and quality assurance procedures.

There are no authorized substitutes of this item as this is the only item known to meet performance and compatibility requirements within the higher assembly.

Furthermore, there is no data to support an open and full competition. The item has to be tested within the upper assembly and qualify within approved testing specifications procedures, embedded coding procedures, design protocols, and internal QA requirements. The Government does not have the data/or is not authorized to use the data, to approve alternate sources. There are no known authorized distributors/dealers for this NIIN.

The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on 03/18/2023 and as a result NO OTHER SOURCES HAVE EXPRESSED AN INTEREST IN PROPOSING ON THIS ACQUISITION.

Market research was conducted in accordance with far part 10. The results of the market research conducted (or the reason(s) market research was not conducted) are as follows

A technical review, which consisted of searching several Government databases including ITIMP, FLIS and ERP, has been completed on this item. Search criteria included Part Number, Design Control Activity, Cage Code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, Criticality Coding, recorded approved sourced of supply, historical sources of supply and past contracts. Based on this market research the contracting officer has determined that the only known procurement source is . If a company other than the one listed believes they have a compatible product, they can submit the item to the Engineering Program Office, to include research and development, drawings and test specifications. The program office may test and evaluate the item at the company’s expense, when appropriate. Upon qualification, the approved company will be able to participate in current or future solicitations. ITIMP- Reviewed award history and other potential sources of supply, AMC/AMSC code, part number, CAGE code. ERP- Search criteria included part number, design control activity, Cage code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, Criticality Coding which all matched with ITIMP. CRITICALITY CODE X: THE ITEM DOES NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR HARDENED FEATURE OR ANY OTHER CRITICAL FEATURE SUCH AS TOLERANCE, FIT RESTRICTION OR APPLICATION.
