ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (SAP)(UNDER $150K)

PMD ID Number:

Department:

Type of Justification:

Company Name/Brand Name:

Company Address (if sole source):

Company POC and Phone Number (if sole source):

Description of Product, Supplies or Services required to meet the Agencies needs:

Statutory Authority Permitting Other than Full and Open Competition: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)

Identification of the Justification Rationale: The material or service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit, and function) with existing systems presently installed.

A patent, copyright, proprietary data, or licensing agreement limits competition.

These are "direct replacements" parts/ components for existing equipment.

Urgency (rare)

Identification of the Justification Rationale Explained:

**If using form, fit, and function, describe the current equipment and how the new item/service must coordinate or interface.

**If using patent, copyright, proprietary data, describe the proprietary data.

**If using direct replacement, describe this below.

**If using urgency, describe when you became aware of the requirement and the impact of not having this complete by this time frame.

Specific Characteristics of the Item or Service Required that Limit the Availability to a Sole Source or Brand Name:

**This is the most important section. Explain in detail why this company or brand are the only ones that can meet the requirement.

Market Research Conducted:

Statement of Actions, if any to Remove Barriers to Competition in the Future:

VP, Business Development Tel: (510) 656-2325, E-mail: swalley@dbcontrol.com Description of Product, Suppli_BbeZdP3HGemNY5bHd2NvWg: AN/SPQ-9B radar is a multi-mission radar that performs detection and tracking of Anti-Ship Cruise Missiles (ASCMs), surface craft, UAV’s, helo’s and periscopes. Each AN/SPQ-9B radar Transmitter contains four High Voltage Power Supplies (HVPS), P/N: 6869024-1, that are used to provide power to the four Traveling Wave Tubes (TWTs) within the Transmitter cabinet. dB Control specifically designed the HVPS to operate with the TWT utilized in the AN/SPQ-9B radar in order to meet the power phase stability & voltage level requirements of the TWT, which it is used to amplify the transmit Radio Frequencies (RF) to a level that allows the radar to detect hostile air and surface targets.

The HVPS Test Load, P/N DB-5009, is specifically designed by dB Control to mimic the impedance load of the TWT and it is used by Radar Technicians to determine whether a TWT or HVPS has failed. dB Control is the only manufacturer of the HVPS and HVPS test load and the only vendor able to repair them. The government does not own the drawings and test procedures for the HVPS and HVPS Test Load thus preventing other vendors from able to repair these devices. NSWC PHD is responsible for replacing HVPS and HVPS Test Loads that fail onboard ships when the radar is initially installed and going through installation and checkout testing. Currently, NSWC PHD has no operational HVPS and HVPS Test Loads available to support shipboard installation and checkouts for Australian Air Warfare Destroyer. It is critical that these assets (2 HVPS and 1 HVPS Test load) be repaired to support AN/SPQ-9B installation checkout onboard Australian Air Warfare Destroyer.

dB Control is the only manufacturer of the HVPS and HVPS test load and as such the only vendor able to repair them. The government does not own the drawings and test procedures for the HVPS and HVPS Test Load thus preventing other vendors from possibly repairing these devices.
