PAG Kitchen SSJA Public.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for public release issued by the 316th Contracting Squadron in April 2021.

The 316th Contracting Squadron is procuring kitchen appliances for the PAG (Purchase Request/Local ID Number F1D1016063A001) to equip an active aircraft hangar kitchen. The requirement specifies three pieces of equipment: one 36" Jade HD Range charbroiler (Model JTRH-36B), one 36" Jade HD Range with six open burners (Model JTRH-6), and one 48" Jade Range thermostatic griddle (Model JTRH-48GT). All appliances must feature integrated automatic gas safety valves and spark igniters to meet unique safety specifications required for operation in an aircraft hangar environment where open doors expose equipment to strong winds that could extinguish gas pilot lights and cause gas accumulation. The new Jade Ranges will include flame failure shut-off and spark ignition features as requested.

The contracting officer determined that only a single source is reasonably available under RFO 12.102, as market research identified no alternative commercial suppliers capable of providing equipment meeting the government's minimum mandatory safety specifications and possessing the required clearance for installation access. The contracting officer, Byron E. Howard, NH-03, DAF, approved the single source justification on April 3, 2026. The document notes that pre-solicitation notices will be posted to monitor the market for future equipment availability, and the estimated contract cost is redacted in the document.
