About this file

This is a Brand Name/Sole Source Justification form for the procurement of one HP COLL,D50,F160,HLC-16 collimator (Part #P30-003356-0E3) under FAR 13.106-1(b)(ii) for a particular brand-name item. The justification is for NSWC Corona to procure a collimator designed specifically to work with their existing IPG 20 kW laser (P/N YLS-20000) in the High Energy Laser Metrology (HELMet) lab.

The document justifies the sole source procurement based on compatibility requirements with the existing system and potential cost implications of using alternative manufacturers. According to the justification, using a collimator from another manufacturer would be incompatible with the existing laser system and could cause damage requiring expensive repairs. The contract number is N6426725Q4025-BNJ to IPG Photonics, and the document was approved in November 2023. NSWC Corona indicates they have no current plans to compete future contracts for these types of supplies but will assess competition feasibility if other sources emerge.
