Summary

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form submitted by Weapon Support Richmond for the Federal Acquisition Keyword (FAKB) contracting activity. The document authorizes limited competition procurement of wiring harnesses and brans (NSN 6150-01-295-5951), with a quantity of nine units. The acquisition is structured as a firm fixed-price contract for five base years without options. The statutory authority cited is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), permitting acquisition from a limited number of sources based on AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC C (requiring engineering source approval to maintain part quality). Four suppliers are identified as capable sources: Richard Manufacturing Company (CAGE 67291), Lockheed Martin Corporation (CAGE 81755), Interconnect Wiring LLP (CAGE 0WW63), and Tusas Havacilk Ve Uzay San.A.S. (CAGE T0544).

Competition development efforts included a sources sought notice and Request for Information (RFI) posted on October 16, 2025, via SAM.gov. A market survey was conducted identifying manufacturers of similar products. The contracting officer determined that fair and reasonable pricing is anticipated, contingent upon informal cost and price data collection if only one offer is received. The justification synopsis is scheduled for approximately November 24, 2025, with all requesting firms receiving solicitation copies. The Competition Advocate and Contracting Officer approved the justification, with an estimated contract value exceeding $900,000 but not exceeding $20 million, requiring Competition Advocate-level approval under FAR 6.304 provisions.
