A/RMC

Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the actual manufacturer.

A/RMSC

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/repair knowledge by the qualified source(s) require acquisition/repair of the part from the approved source(s). The approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing/repair 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, A/RMCs 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, A/RMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

This acquisition will be solicited to

Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. (78022) Str ke & Surveillance Sys. Division 17066 Golden Top Rd., PO Bo 509066 San Diego, CA, 92159-9066

858-618-4349 Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. (78022) will be solicited because the item to be manufactured is a highly specialized part, designed and manufactured by a Non-Government activity and the the technical data required to manufacture by other than the above is not available. A criticality determination has been performed and deemed not critical (NC). However, Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. (78022) is the only source listed on the current ISIL, Rev. M, for the MQ-4C Triton UAS. The system is pre-MSD until 1OCT2022. All alternate sources must qualify

I/A/W the Design Control Activity procedures as approved by NAVAIR prior to award. This system is complex and unique, requiring technical expertise that currently resides with Northrop Grumman Systems Corp. (78022). Due to the complexity of the required test equipment and the high cost to develop the electrical and mechanical requirements, achieving full and open competition of this item is not possible at this time.

15 MAR 2019 Class Waiver of the Requirement to Post a Request for Information or Sources Sought Notice applies to this requirement

The proposed contract action was synopsized on the FedBizOpps website for government-wide point of entry on 07/01/2019 and as a result No other source expressed interest in this requirement.

Market research was conducted in accordance with far part 10. The results of the market research conducted (or the reason(s) market research was not conducted) are as follows

Market Research was not conducted due to item being on interim support until 1OCT2022. No additional sources are listed on the current ISIL. No additional market research was conducted because it is not practicable, for the reasons discussed in paragraph 5 above, for any other source to provide the required supplies and services. The available technical data is insufficient for the development of new sources. Source Development

Department files indicate no Source Approval Request (SAR) has been received from any party interested in becoming an approved source.

The contracting officer determines that the anticipated cost to the Government of the supplies covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable.
