1.20 J&A 24284-0061 redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) for the Department of the Navy, DLA Maritime, regarding the procurement of 33 ANTENNA units with part number 10199-1100-01. The solicitation is specifically targeting Southwest Research Institute Inc. (CAGE Code 26401) as the sole source manufacturer, with a period of performance expected to conclude on 10/24/2025. The procurement is being conducted under the authority of 10 USC 3204(a)(1), with the rationale that Southwest Research Institute is the only source maintaining design and manufacturing standards for this component, which is required for fleet readiness.

The J&A indicates that market research was conducted, including technical reviews of government databases, and no alternative sources were identified. The estimated contract value has been redacted, but the document notes that the cost is considered fair and reasonable, having been procured on a non-commercial basis for a specific military application. The solicitation was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on 04/29/2025, with no responses received. NAVSUP WSS (Weapon Systems Support) will continue to encourage vendors to submit technical data packages and seek additional sources for future procurements of this antenna component.
