History capabilities. The Program Office may also require a site visit, to evaluate source's capabilities, to adequately accomplish the procurement for these items. Upon qualification, the approved company will be able to participate in future solicitations. Other market research includes SAM, NAVSUP OntTouch, Google Search, and an email from Keysight stating they will only sell this part to Testmart.

The Contracting Officer hereby determines that the anticipated cost to the Government for this contract action will be fair and reasonable.

This item has been procured on a non-commercial basis in the past and is for a specific military application. However, the total estimated cost is lower than the threshold for providing certified cost or pricing data as provided for in FAR15.403-4(a)(1). Any necessary price analysis or cost information will be used to support the reasonableness of the price.

To promote competition, NAVSUP WSS will continue to encourage vendors with the expertise to manufacture/repair the subject item to submit a complete technical data package for review and source approval by the appropriate engineering source approval authority per the (WSS) guidelines.

The Government will include a clause in the solicitation that provides that the Government will consider alternate offers, and that alternate offerors should submit a source approval request (SAR) package that will be referred to the cognizant engineering activity. Also future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry in order to encourage potential vendors to submit SAR.
