PMA 299 PM CSS JA Bridge10.29_Redacted_Page_3.jpg

This document appears to be a Justification & Approval (J&A) for a sole source bridge contract, with the J&A number 25-0154. The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated cost to the Government to be fair and reasonable for the supplies/services covered by this J&A.

The document specifically addresses actions to remove barriers to future competition, noting that this sole source bridge effort will ensure contractual coverage until a protest phase is completed. At that point, the Navy will take steps to move forward with a competitive award. The brief section suggests this is an interim contract measure to maintain continuity of services while resolving a competitive procurement protest.
