C

C. This part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the part. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition/repair of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing/repair knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having jurisdiction over the part in the intended application. If one source is approved, A/RMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources are approved or if data is adequate for an alternate source to qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, A/RMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

Multiple Method Codes

This acquisition will be negotiated with

ALKAN (F0554)

The subject item is a critical item, part, assembly, installation or production system with one or more critical or critical safety characteristics that if missing or not conforming to the design data, quality requirements or overhaul and maintenance documentation would result in an unsafe condition that could cause loss or serious damage to the end item or major components, loss of control, or death to personnel. Only NAVAIR can approve critical sources. The approval process involves inspection and review of manufacturing techniques, special skills, qualifications, and knowledge required to complete the complex procedures. NAVAIR engineering is responsible for this process. For these reasons NAVSUP WSS is presently unable to fully compete this item. At this time no other commercial facilities have the expertise, facilities or the test equipment necessary to produce this item other than ALKAN (F0554). See accompanying email for source approval.

6. DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO SOLICIT OFFERS FROM AS MANY OFFERORS AS PRACTICABLE: A Request for Information / Sources Sought Notice was entered on the FedBizOpps website for government-wide point of entry on

09/06/2018 and as a result no additional sources expressed an interest in the requirement.

The proposed contract action was synopsized on the FedBizOpps website for government-wide point of entry on

9/20/2018 and as a result no additional sources expressed an interest in the requirement.

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:

The NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (WSS) Source Development Department (SDD) has conducted a market research per the market research document. A criticality determination for this subject item has not yet been entered into JDRS. Data review discloses that all the repair data including repair manuals, publications, associated drawings and specifications required to repair and maintain the quality of this subject item is not in the Government's possession and cannot be economically obtained to support full and open competition.

Currently, the only responsible repair source for this subject item is ALKAN (F0554) per email dated September 10, 2018 from Cody Porter, Mechanical Engineer Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division (NSWC Crane). Source Development Department files indicate no SAR has been received from any company interested in becoming a source of supply for the subject item.

7. DETERMINATION OF FAIR AND REASONABLE COST:

The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the repairs 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) & (6), NAVSUP WSS has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the types of supplies/ services covered by this document. To promote competition NAVSUP WSS will continue to encourage manufacturers with the expertise to repair the subject item to submit a complete technical data package for review and source approval by the appropriate engineering source approval authority per the (WSS) guidelines. Also, future requirements will be advertised in the FedBizOps website (www.fedbizops.gov) in order to encourage potential suppliers to submit Source Approval Requests.
