J&A l9-0l59

2. Description of the Action Being Approved. This Justification and Approval (J&A) authorizes and approves the award of a contract on a sole source basis for the implementation of an Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) associated with the AN/ALQ-99 Low Band Transmitter (LBT) Vertical Polarization (VPol) antenna. A contract will be awarded to Sensor and Antenna Systems, Lansdale, Inc., Cobham Advanced Electronic Solutions Division, 305 Richardson Road, Lansdale, PA 19446.

3. Description of Supplies/Services. This contract will implement an engineering change developed under a previous contract to modify the VPol antenna to eliminate an existing frequency sub-band division, reinforce the antenna base to eliminate cracking, and reduce parts count of the VPol antenna, thus improving efficiency and reliability. The contractor will provide and install VPol antenna ECP kits and perform subsequent acceptance testing of modified VPol antennas. This contract will also include Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) for test station upgrades to support the required delivery schedule. Aircraft Procurement, Navy (APN-5) will be used for this effort. The period of performance of this contract will be from Fiscal Years (FY) 20 through 23. The estimated budget and quantities for this contract are as follows:

The total estimated value of this contract is approximately $. The supplies and support acquired in these procurements will satisfy the Government's minimum needs.

4. Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. § 2304(c)(1) as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1: "Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements."

5. Rationale Justifying Use of Cited Statutory Authority. In accordance with FAR 6.302-1 (a)(2)(ii)(B), NA VAIR has determined that procurement of these requirements from a source other than Cobham would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements.
