PART II - Technical Information and Certification

1. The US Army TACOM LCMC requires the acquisition of the above item. The only approved source(s) for the above item is (are):

Raytheon Company 2501 W. University Dr.

McKinney, TX, 75070

CAGE CODE: 96214

Part Numbers: 4977385-1

2. Reasons the item is not suitable for full and open competition:

a. Status of the Acquisition Data: There is no technical data available at this time that can be used to support competitive purchasing of Torque Motor P/N 4977385-1 (part of the CIV Gimbal Assembly Unit).

b. Efforts to Increase Competition or Qualify a New Source in Relation to this Procurement: To date the government has not purchased the data from Raytheon regarding the present proprietary design by which competition of this item may be accomplished. At this time funding to purchase or develop competitive data is not available. It is estimated that to develop competitive tech data that it would take 12 months and $1,000,000 to reverse engineer this item after which it would then take an additional $1,000,000 and 12 months in order to qualify a new vendor.

c. Demonstration of Approved Contractor's Unique Qualifications:

Raytheon developed this item and has passed all on-vehicle testing as necessary for Army use, and has produced all the units on vehicles and spares for this item that are in the field at the time for the U.S. Army.

d. Efforts to Qualify Additional Suppliers for future procurements:

As stated in 2b above, it is not cost effective for the Government to consider competition of this spares requirement because of the lack of funding for developing competitive technical data, the length of time to qualify new technical data, and the absence of any future cost savings due to low purchase quantities.

e. Market Research: Presently the Government does not have any technical information necessary to adequately describe form fit or function as necessary by which meaningful market research can be conducted. A Sources Sought Synopsis was requested on 8 May 2015. To date, no contractors have expressed interest in becoming qualified source(s) to produce the items. Interested suppliers may apply to the Source Approval Program through the TACOM LCMC-Warren Competition Advocate’s Office.

3. The POC for this action is XXXXXXX, Electronics Engineer, Ext. XXXXXXX.
