CLASS JUSTIFICATION AND APPROVAL (J&A)

JUSTIFICATION

1. Contracting Activity

The Naval Sea Systems Command, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane

Division (NSWC Crane), Expeditionary Integration Contracts Branch, 0233.

2. Description of the Action Being Approved

Alter the planned award contract type of N00164-17-R-JV13 from

Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract to a

Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA). The acquisition is to be awarded and order under the BOA issued on a sole source basis for the procurement of the USQ-149, spares, repairs and engineering services in support of and the

Weapon Replaceable Assemblies

(WRA) and Shop Replaceable Assemblies (SRA) to Harris Corporation

7821 Orion Avenue, Van Nuys (formerly Exelis, Inc), Van Nuys, California. The alteration in contract type is a result of acquisition planning discussions conducted with Harris. Based on the nature of the repairs being completed under this effort, the vendor is unable to reasonably estimate standard fixed costs for these efforts over the next five years. Additionally, due to the aging of the system and parts, the required repair efforts will increase as the system ages. Finally, the required repair quantities for each year cannot be reasonably estimated as many of the WRAs and SRAs identified as potential items for repair will begin to sunset over the next five (5) years. Based on the uncertainty of future requirements resulting from these constraints and IAW FAR 16.703(b), a BOA has been determined to be the most appropriate contract type. All other information provided in the original J&A, including estimated dollar values, remains the same.

J&A Number: 17-015.1
