Single Source Justification Summary

This is a Single Source Justification document for a simplified acquisition procuring Chimera Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (SUAS) and miscellaneous spare parts and supporting accessories from Oak Grove Technologies, LLC. The contracting activity is 1 SOCONS under the project "Small Unmanned Aerial Systems - Chimera - Oak Grove Technologies." The estimated contract cost is redacted, and the contract will be awarded as a single award with a firm fixed price.

Oak Grove Technologies is determined to be the sole source capable of fulfilling the Government's requirement under FAR 13.106(b)(1). The justification establishes that Oak Grove Technologies is the only manufacturer and authorized reseller of the Chimera sUAS and holds exclusive rights to its production, sale, and training. AFSOC has specifically reviewed and approved Oak Grove Technologies' Chimera sUAS vendor training course, which is the only authorized training program for this platform. Alternative "Blue List" systems lack approved training programs, established curriculum, or certified instructors. The procuring agency notes that the Chimera system is mission-critical and essential for training forces in kinetic strike capabilities to meet demonstration timelines established in an "Authorization for Procurement of non-NDAA Compliant sUAS (Chimera)" memorandum dated 29 January 2026. The procurement is authorized under the Secretary of War's "Unleashing U.S. Military Drone Dominance" memorandum dated 10 July 2025. The Contracting Officer, Luis Osuna-Zatarain, SSgt, made the determination on 05 February 2026 that only a single source is reasonably available. The document indicates future efforts will establish a standard, non-proprietary training curriculum for a competitively selected Blue UAS platform to preclude future single-source awards.
