About this file
This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for other than full and open competition from the Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division (NSWC IHD) to award a sole source contract to Cruz Associates, Inc. (CAI) for energetics development and manufacturing support services. The contract is a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Level of Effort award valued at $58M for a 12-month base period plus two 12-month options, funded through Working Capital Funds and Operations & Maintenance Navy funds.
The scope includes providing operators, technical, administrative and project management personnel to support energetic materials operations at NSWC IHD and Naval Weapons Station Yorktown. Key areas are energetic materials operations, functional/administrative support, quality assurance, and logistics/inventory management. The J&A cites CAI's 17 years of exceptional service and unique expertise with specialized equipment maintenance and critical munitions programs like Otto Fuel II and MK77 Gas Generator components. A Sources Sought notice posted on SAM.gov on 1/12/2024 yielded 4 responses, while a pre-solicitation notice on 2/23/2024 received no responses. The document justifies the sole source award based on CAI's established capabilities and the urgent surge requirements to support Ukraine and US munitions stockpiles, with the Navy projecting a 300% increase in production needs.
