JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

SOLICITATION SPE7MX-22-R-0057

DLA Land & Maritime Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (May 2018)

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:

[ ] 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.

[X] AMSC C. This part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the part. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing knowledge, or technical data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having jurisdiction over the part in the intended application. If one source is approved, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources are approved or if data is adequate for an alternate source to qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

Regarding NSN 4810-01-084-5981, Eaton Corporation, Parker Hannifin, United Valve Company, and TAT Technologies are the only sources specified on the source control / item drawings because the Government has the drawings or data available but does not have the complete drawings or data to make the acquisition fully competitive. For NSN 4820-01-059-2297, Eaton Corporation and Parker Hannifin are the only sources approved by the design control activity because Eaton and Parker Hannifin retain the data rights, manufacturing knowledge, or technical data that is not economically available to the Government, and the data or knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part.

All means to obtain a technical data package adequate for manufacture of the item have been exhausted. The Product Specialist, on 03/03/2022, confirmed the technical information on which this J&A is premised is complete and accurate. The AMC/AMSC codes of 1B and 1C were confirmed by the Product Specialist, and that the approved sources are listed in Section 5.

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

[X] The acquisition will be synopsized on or about March 11, 2022 for 15 days. At the completion of the synopsis period, this PR will be solicited on the internet for a minimum of 30 days via the DLA Internet Bid Board System

(DIBBS).

[X] Dealers of the manufacturers will be solicited.

In an effort to research and obtain dealer competition, the Government posted a sources sought on SAM.gov from
