Redacted AMRAAM Production J and A.pdf

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition for the AMRAAM missile production and sustainment program. The document is issued by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Air Dominance Division, for a follow-on contract with Raytheon Missile Systems to continue production of AIM-120 missile variants and associated configurations for Foreign Military Sales (FMS) customers. The estimated contract value covers procurement, research/development, operations/maintenance, and FMS-related activities across multiple lots, with Lot 33 planned for award in March 2019.

The J&A emphasizes that Raytheon is the sole qualified contractor capable of providing these missile production and sustainment services without substantial duplication of costs. Market research, including a sources sought synopsis and telecommunications with potential vendors, confirmed no other companies expressed interest in being a second source for AMRAAM production. The contract includes comprehensive support activities such as missile production, technical support, program management, logistics support, engineering analyses, and sustainment tasks for various missile variants and configurations across the AMRAAM system's lifecycle.
