This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for the United States Air Force (USAF). The contract is for six (6) Poly/Wire Cassette Refills specifically designed for MB Runway Snow Broom heads, with a Purchase Request/Local ID Number of F3H3G25147A002. The requirement is for refills compatible with three specific MB snow plows: a 2005 MB runway snow plow (Chassis Serial #: 10TBFAN175S085229), a 2009 MB runway snow plow (Chassis Serial #: 08-0130), and a 2015 MB runway snow plow (Chassis Serial #: 10TBFAP19AS122126).

The justification for a single-source contract is based on the specialized nature of these cassette refills, which are engineered to fit precisely within MB equipment with proprietary features. The sources sought notice posted on SAM.gov from 25 Jun 2025 to 10 July 2025 yielded only two vendor responses, indicating limited market alternatives. The contracting officer determined that a single source is reasonably available to ensure uninterrupted runway maintenance, meet safety requirements, and preserve operational efficiency. The contract was signed by the Contracting Officer on 12-Aug-2025, with the document marked as Controlled Unclassified Information.
