This document is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) from the Department of the Navy's NAVSUP WSS in Philadelphia. The document seeks to negotiate and award a contract for a Cable Assembly Set Interface Device, Electrical (NSN 4920-01-725-5433, P/N 282523-01) through non-competitive means. The acquisition is justified because the necessary technical data is not physically available, and the government cannot obtain adequate specifications through competitive solicitation.

The expected final delivery date is 09/01/2025, and the contract is being awarded directly to a single manufacturer due to unique technical requirements. Market research indicates no other sources are currently available, and the item has an undetermined criticality. NAVSUP WSS plans to continue encouraging vendors to submit technical data packages to promote future competition. The document includes signatures from various personnel including a Planner, Equipment Specialist, Competition Advocate, Supervisor, and an Attorney, who have certified the accuracy and completeness of the justification.
