Redacted JA-DTO Repair DYN.pdf

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a repair contract with General Microwave Corporation (GMC) for the Digitally Tuned Oscillator (DTO). The contract is for the repair of DTOs used in USAF and FMS ALR-56M and ALQ-131 Electronic Warfare Weapon Systems within F-16, F-15, and C-130 aircraft. The requirement is a follow-on contract with a basic one-year period plus four one-year ordering periods, anticipated to run from 29 July 2025 through 28 July 2030.

The contract is sole-sourced to GMC as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), which owns the Technical Data Package (TDP) and design requirements. Market research conducted between February and May 2024 concluded GMC is the only vendor capable of fulfilling the government's requirements. The total estimated contract value includes repair quantities for USAF and FMS, with pricing for a basic period and four option periods. The government determined GMC is the only firm that can provide these specialized repair services without experiencing unacceptable delays, as qualifying a new vendor would require extensive reverse engineering and approximately two years of TDP development.
