The use of the authority cited below:

[ X ] AMC 1. Suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time.

The use of the authority cited is based on:

(The following AMSC descriptions are available in DFARS PGI 217.7506 Part 2.)

[ X ] AMSC B. This part must be acquired from a manufacturing source(s) specified on a source control or selected item drawing as defined by the current version of DoD-STD-100. Suitable technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge are not available to permit acquisition from other sources, nor qualification testing of another part, nor use of a second source part in the intended application. Although, by DoD-STD-100 definition, altered and selected items shall have an adequate technical data package, data review discloses that required data or data rights are not in Government possession and cannot be economically obtained. If one source is available, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources exist, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

6. Efforts to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable are:

[ X ] The acquisition will be synopsized on or about 10/19/2018.

[ X ] Dealers of the manufacturers will be solicited.

7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

Although this acquisition meets the threshold requirement for Certified Cost or Pricing Data, the contracting officer has determined that there is adequate competition. In accordance with FAR 15.403- 1(b)(1), the applicable clauses were not incorporated into the solicitation. A price analysis will be conducted using historical government pricing, the Producer Price Index (PPI) and learning curve analysis. Other than cost or pricing data will be requested if needed.
