Sole Source Justification Summary

This is a Sole Source Justification document for a firm fixed price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call issued by the Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA), Office of Secretary of War, located at 4234 54th Street, McClellan, CA 95652.

The requirement is for fifteen (15) TickDev Rev2 Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) to be procured from Out of the Box Manufacturing LLC on a sole source basis under Task #26-6H9. The justification cites R-FAR 6.103-1 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as authority, establishing that no other suppliers or services will satisfy agency requirements. The underlying BPA was established through competitive solicitation HQ072725QRT04, posted December 15, 2025, with seven firms submitting responses and awards made to qualified offerors. The current action is being placed within that previously competed BPA environment. The justification emphasizes that technical merit evaluation factors beyond design package compliance have limited value in distinguishing among qualified BPA holders, and that vendor-specific past performance data on quality, schedule adherence, and production execution is insufficient for the current BPA holder. The contracting officer, Nicholas Roberts, certified the justification as accurate and complete on 9/1/26, and determined the anticipated price is fair and reasonable based on BPA award pricing, historical pricing for similar PCB requirements, and government estimates. Additional sources identified include Sierra Circuits, Printed Circuit Corporation, American Computer Development, Inc., Trylene Inc., and Unified Business Technologies Inc.
