This is a Class Justification and Approval (J&A) document from the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) authorizing sole-source orders under a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with General Electric Aircraft Engines (GEAE) for the Propulsion and Power Component Improvement Program (CIP).

The J&A covers orders supporting F404, F414, T58, T64, T700, CT7, and T408 aircraft engines used in various military aircraft including F/A-18C/D, F/A-18E/F, and others. The total estimated value is $92.9 million, with FY19 funding of $45 million ($40M RDT&E, $5M FMS) and FY20 funding of $47.9 million ($42.5M RDT&E, $5.4M FMS). GEAE was selected as the sole source because they are the original designer and sole possessor of technical data for these engines. The scope includes redesign/prototype work, testing, specification maintenance, reliability improvements, and development of quality design changes. The BOA expires on December 31, 2020. The opportunity was synopsized on FEDBIZOPS on February 21, 2018, with no responses received except from GEAE.
