About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) filed by the Department of the Navy, NAVSUP WSS (Naval Supply Systems Command Weapon Systems Support) located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.
The document justifies a non-competitive contract award for the repair and overhaul of an alternating generator (NSN 7HE 6115 014632103, Part Number 28B95-79-A). The acquisition is being conducted under the authority of 10 USC 3204(A)(1), which permits sole source or limited source procurement when only one or a limited number of responsible sources can satisfy agency requirements. The contracting action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on September 12, 2025. The rationale cites A/RMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and A/RMSC R (government does not own design data or rights, and reverse engineering is uneconomical). Market research identified only two capable repair sources: Safran Power USA LLC and S3 Aerodefense. However, prior to award, only S3 Aerodefense submitted an offer and received the award on a sole source basis. S3, in conjunction with the original equipment manufacturer Honeywell, possesses the proprietary design drawings, repair procedures, and quality assurance documentation necessary to complete the repairs. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable. A 15 MAR 2019 Class Waiver of the requirement to post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement. NAVSUP WSS committed to encourage other qualified vendors to submit technical data packages for future source approval and will advertise future requirements on the government-wide point of entry.

Period of Performance:
Line of Accounting
This J&A is based upon the authority of 10 USC 3204(A) (1), only one or a limited number of responsible sources will satisfy agency requirements.
A/RMC 1
Suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time.
A/RMSC R
The Government does not own the data or the rights to the data needed to purchase / contract repair of this part from additional sources. It has been determined to be uneconomical to buy the data or rights to the data. It is uneconomical to reverse engineer the part. This code is used when the Government did not initially purchase the data and/or rights. If only one source has the rights or data to manufacture/repair this item, A/RMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If two or more sources have the rights or data to manufacture/repair this item, A/RMCs 1 or 2 are valid.
This acquisition will be solicited to
Safran Power USA LLC and S3 Aerodefense . The Government does not own the data, or the rights to the data needed to openly compete this repair requirement. Safran Power USA LLC and S3 Aerodefense are the only sources, who is the OEM, maintains the design and repairs standards via design drawings, repairs procedures, and quality assurance procedures. The Government does not have the data/or is not authorized to use the data, to approve alternate sources. Prior to award only one offer was received from S3 Aerodefense and therefore was awarded in a sole source manner.
The OEM reached out to S3 and requested S3 submit a bid with the understanding they would support S3 with any needed documentation/repairs for the contract.
Therefore, S3 in conjunction with the OEM (Honeywell) is the only source capable of completing the repairs. The OEM does not complete repairs on this item.
15 MAR 2019 Class Waiver of the Requirement to Post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement
The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on 09/12/2025 and as a result
Market research was conducted in accordance with far part 10. The results of the market research conducted (or the reason(s) market research was not conducted) are as follows
A technical review, which consisted of searching several Government databases including ITIMP, FLIS and ERP, has been completed on this item. Search criteria included Part Number, Design Control Activity, Cage Code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, Criticality Coding, recorded approved sourced of supply, historical sources of supply and past contracts. Based on this market research the contracting officer has determined that the only known repair sources are Safran Power USA LLC and S3 Aerodefense .The government does not own the data or the rights to the data needed to purchase/contract repair of this part from additional sources. It has been determined to be uneconomical to buy the data rights or reverse engineer the part. ITIMP- Reviewed award history and other potential sources of supply, AMC/AMSC code, part number, CAGE code. ERP- Search criteria included part number, design control activity, Cage code, NSN, Nomenclature, AMC/AMSC, AAC, Criticality Coding which all matched with ITIMP. A review of the databases, in the market research, did not reveal nor identify any known repair entities.
