The remaining 780 Non-PEL items must also meet the same criteria, as the 113 PEL items listed on pages 1-4 of this J &A, they are (1) items that are stocked (Acquisition Advice Code (AAC) “D” –DOD Managed Material Stock, “Z” – Insurance Stockage Objective Item); (2) items having 2.5 years or less of stock on hand and a yearly estimated dollar value of $500.00 or greater; (3) items on existing long term contracts (LTCs) that have a final expiration date within 2014 and (4) restricted source items identified to Bell Helicopter. The Non-PEL items will be considered for addition to the contract when there is an identifiable annual demand.

4. The applicable statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 USC 2304 (c)(1), as implemented by FAR Part 6.302-1, available from one or a limited number of responsible sources, and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.

5. Following is a listing of Approved Sources for the PEL of FSC 5305-5360 Source Controlled items and their associated CAGE codes:

Approved Sources Cage Codes Alco Global Fasteners Inc 5R793 Alco Global Fasteners Inc 92215 Alco Global Fasteners Inc 29372 Alco Global Fasteners Inc 71286 Alco Global Fasteners Inc 5M902 Apept Fasteners Inc 1V0G6 Arrowhead Products Corporation 70628 Avibank MFG 84256 B/E Aerospace Inc 2N935 Bell Helicopter Textron Inc 97499 Boeing Co 8V613 Boeing Co 81205 Bristol Industries 27238 The Conrad Company 22539 Cr Industries Inc 80201 DFCI Solutions Inc 72794 Hartwell Corporation 83014 Hi-Shear Corporation 73197 Kirhill TA Hanskon Div 11960 LISI Aerospace Canada Corp L4528 Lord Corporation 76005 Monadnock Company 60119 Monagram Aerospace Fasteners Inc 98524 National Aerospace Standards 80205 Northop Grumman System Corp 26512 Peerless Aerospace Fastener Corporation 2G586 Pilgrim Screw Corporation 47253 Shur-Lok Company 97393 SPS Technologies 56878 SPS Technologies 4XD55 SPS Technologies 06725 Trasdigm Inc 83930 Triumph Fabrications-Hot Springs 3H339 Wesco Aircraft Hardware Corp 1V757 West Coast Aerospace Inc 60516

Offers for the PEL items are anticipated from some of the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) listed above as well as dealers/distributors offering their products.

The required items have been tested and approved by the military services for use as repair and replacement parts on military aircraft, as well as weapon systems and various other military equipment.

These are commercial items with military applications and the Government Engineering Support Activity (ESA) has determined that the identified approved sources are the only ones that can produce the required items and satisfy the military’s needs. The Government does not possess complete unrestricted technical data to develop an item description or specifications for purposes of full and open competition. Purchasing the complete data packages from the owners of the data, or attempting to obtain data through the process of reverse engineering have been determined to be economically impracticable.

No alternate items will satisfy the military services’ requirements unless otherwise tested, evaluated and approved by the cognizant Government ESA.

6. A Sources Sought Notice will be published in Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps). A Combined Synopsis/Solicitation announcement will be published in Federal Business Opportunities Website (www.fbo.gov).

In addition, this justification will also be published with the solicitation in accordance with the FAR 6.305(c). In order to ensure that offers are solicited from as many potential sources as is practicable, all of the approved sources identified in paragraph 5 above will be solicited for this requirement. Additional items considered for inclusion pursuant to the add/delete provision contained in the resulting contracts will also be synopsized in FedBizzOpps. Should the synopsis result in another source (other than an existing contract holder) expressing interest, then those items will be process as a separate acquisition.

7. As contracting officer, I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable based on price analysis in accordance with FAR 15.404-1(b)(2)(ii), including comparison to current market pricing for the same or similar items. Adequate competition is also anticipated in accordance with FAR 15.4041(b)(2)(i) on many of the PEL items.

8. Market Research was conducted in order to assess interest in this acquisition. Surveys were sent to and eight (8) offerors from previous acquisitions: two (2) large distributors –

; two (2) large manufacturers – ; four (4) small distributors – . Market research cited specific requirements that would be included in the solicitation and provided a detailed description of the PEL items. Responses were received from six (6) contractors: one (1) large manufacturer – ;

two (2) large distributors - ; and three (3) small distributors -

9. There are no additional facts supporting the use of other than full and open competition. All possible actions were taken in the past to promote full and open competition, such as synopsizing the requirement. The data needed to acquire the required item competitively is not available, cannot be obtained economically, nor is it possible to draft adequate specifications or any other adequate, economical description of the material for a competitive solicitation. The assigned Acquisition Method Suffix Codes (AMSC) indicate the Government does not have adequate data and/or lacks rights to data necessary to purchase this part from additional sources.

10. Sources expressing an interest in this acquisition during market research included:

11. In an effort to overcome barriers to competition, periodic screening of the assigned AMC/AMSC of each item will be completed in accordance with DLA Troop Support procedures for the management of source controlled hardware items. Any item considered for addition to the contract from the universe of items will undergo an immediate technical review to ensure it is not a competitive item. Items that are actively being purchased by DLA Troop Support (including PEL items originally included or subsequently added under the contract), will be reviewed on an annual basis prior to the exercise of each option. If an item becomes competitive at any time, it will be removed from the contract and the Non-PEL of potential add items. In addition, Defense Logistics Agency Directive (DLAD) Clause 52.217-9002, “Conditions for Evaluation and Acceptance of Part Numbered Items” encouraging the submission of offers for alternate products, will be included in the solicitation. Alternate offers will be considered and technical data packages for alternate items will be sent to the Government ESA for review/approval.

12. As the contracting officer, I hereby certify that this justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
