About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) issued by the Department of the Navy, NAVSUP WSS in Philadelphia.
The acquisition involves the repair and overhaul of a Powersupply unit (NSN 6120016946305, P/N PS2201X-SS-GRADE A-6MO-6Pl-R3) with an expected final delivery date of August 15, 2026. The contracting activity is NAVSUP WSS - Philadelphia (Folder #25211-0004, PD #N0038325U3204). The sole source award will be made to Powerstar Inc (CAGE Code 0ZAP8) under the authority of 10 USC 3204(A)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, as only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. Powerstar Inc is the only approved source with the technical data required to repair, test, and certify this item prior to delivery. The Government lacks engineering or technical data necessary to solicit repairs competitively from other sources. Market research was conducted in accordance with FAR Part 10, and no Source Approval Requests have been received from other interested parties. A class waiver from March 15, 2019, exempting this requirement from posting a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this acquisition. The contracting officer has determined that the anticipated cost will be fair and reasonable. NAVSUP WSS has no plans to compete future contracts for this item but will reassess if another manufacturing source emerges and will advertise future requirements on the government-wide point of entry. The document was created on August 15, 2025, and received final approval on May 20, 2026.

This J&A is based upon the authority of 10 USC 3204(A) (1), only one or a limited number of responsible sources will satisfy agency requirements, as implemented by FAR 6.302-1
A/RMC 5
Acquire directly from a sole source contractor which is not the actual manufacturer.
A/RMSC D
The data needed to acquire/repair this part competitively is not physically available, it cannot be obtained economically, nor is it possible to draft adequate specifications or any other adequate, economical description of the material for a competitive solicitation. A/RMCS 3, 4, or 5 are valid.
This acquisition will be solicited to
Powerstar Inc (0ZAP8) This repair will be solicited to the Powerstar Inc (0ZAP8) because they’re the only source with the technical data required to repair, test and certify this item prior to unit delivery. In the absence of any technical data, it is imperative that the Government deal strictly with Powerstar Inc (0ZAP8) for repair of this item. The Government does not physically have in its possession any engineering or technical data to contract for repairs with other than Powerstar Inc (0ZAP8) at this time.
15 MAR 2019 Class Waiver of the Requirement to Post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement
The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on 10/21/2025 and as a result
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 latest configuration has been checked and all records (ITIMP, JDRS) have been properly aligned, identified, and documented. This item has been deemed Non-Critical. However, the data necessary to solicit this item from sources other than Powerstar Inc (0ZAP8) is not physically available and is uneconomical to obtain. The available technical data is insufficient for the development of new sources. Source Development Department files indicate no Source Approval Request (SAR) has been received from any party interested in becoming an approved source. Powerstar (0ZAP8) is the only approved source at this time.
Source Validation Review
The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable.
For reasons set forth in Paragraph (5 & 6), NAVSUP WSS has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the subject item covered by this document. If another potential manufacturing source emerges, NAVSUP WSS will assess whether competition for future requirements is feasible. Also, future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry.
