Sole Source Justification - 563 RQG Viavi Radio Test Set CO Signed_Redacted.pdf

This document is a sole source justification for the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command solicitation FA487723QA355 for radio test equipment from Viavi. The justification requests approval to procure Viavi CX300 radio test sets on a sole source basis due to a lack of other suppliers that can meet the Air Force's requirements. The CX300 sets are required to test radios on various aircraft including the F-15, F-16, and A-10. Viavi is the original equipment manufacturer of the radios and radio test equipment, making them the only source able to provide full product support, software upgrades, and maintenance services. The justification provides background on the CX300 systems already in use by the Air Force and justification for the noncompetitive procurement to ensure standardization, reduce training costs, and maintain full product support from the manufacturer for critical aircraft radio systems.
