This item is an AMC/AMSC of 1/C. This item supports the AIRCRAFT STRATOLIFTER C/KC-135 weapon system, WSDC 05F, is a Critical Safety Item (CSI). THE BOEING COMPANY (81205) and CAMNETICS MANUFACTURING CORPORATION (0P657) are only known sources capable of making this item. The Government does not own or possess the data or drawings for full and open competition. There are not currently any 339’s out to the Engineering Support Activity (ESA) and current information indicates that the item is not commercial or commercial-of-a-type. Technical Data Certification is attached.

6. Efforts to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable are:

The acquisition will be synopsized for 15 days prior to the solicitation opening. At the completion of the synopsis period, the Purchase Request (PR) will be solicited on the internet for 30 days via the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS).

7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

A price analysis will be conducted using historical pricing, the Producer Price Index (PPI), and learning curve analysis. Cost or pricing data in accordance with FAR 15.403-4 will be requested if the offer exceeds the $2M threshold for obtaining cost data, however, it is anticipated that this procurement will not exceed that threshold.

Offerors may be requested to submit information other than cost or pricing data for determining price reasonableness. Based on the above techniques, the Contracting Officer anticipates that the cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.
