About this file

This single source justification document proposes procuring a 5-channel projection display system from Treality for the F-22 Simulations Lab at a cost of $335,847. The justification cites that Treality projectors are currently used in the lab and changing to a different manufacturer would require a costly reconfiguration of the existing system. Procuring from Treality will ensure compatibility, performance, easy integration and maintenance with the existing lab equipment. The contracting officer determined on July 1, 2020 that only Treality could reasonably meet the requirement due to the specialized needs of the simulation lab. The related federal contract opportunity provides additional context, with the Air Force Materiel Command Test Center planning to award a sole source contract to an unknown vendor for an unknown amount on August 26, 2020.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

November 2018 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY Page 1 of 1

Section A: General Contract Information

Is this a Bridge Action as defined in the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan? Yes No

Contracting Activity: AFTC/PZIEB

Project/Program Name: F-22 Simulations Lab Projector Tech Refresh

Purchase Request / Local ID Number: F1S0AQ0064A001

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options): $335,847.00

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

5 Channel FL40-4K Projection Display System (PDS)

- Includes Projectors with lenses

- System Upgrade Mechanics Material Charge

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

The F-22 CTF Aircraft Simulation Lab specifically requires that the new projection system integrate into the current Simulations Lab configuration. Treality projectors are currently being used, and going with a different manufacturer would mean a complete reconfiguration of the lab. Reconfiguration of the lab would be costly to the government. Treality is considered cutting edge and offers the most realistic projections on the market, meaning a high quality of training value for pilots through realistic simulations. Procuring Treality brand will ensure compatibility, performance, easy integration and maintenance to existing systems which is most advantageous to the government.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Due to the extremely specific technologies requirements of the Simulations Lab, there is no expectation of being able to meet this requirement by purchasing from a third-party reseller. Market research did not identify any other company(s) that can provide your required product without a reconfiguration of the lab.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards

Market research will be conducted for future requirements to determine if other vendors are able to fulfill the requirement.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
