C

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.

Multiple Method Codes

This acquisition will be negotiated with

NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORP (06481)

21240 BURBANK BLVD

WOODLAND HILLS, CA. 91367

This item is a Critical Application Item (CAI).

This acquisition will be a negotiated with NORTHROP GRUMMAN because they are the only approved source of manufacture and the OEM/ DCA. There are no drawings or specifications of manufacture available. All data rights are proprietary to NORTHROP GRUMMAN and cannot be acquired. All alternate sources must qualify IAW the DCA's procedures, as approved by NAVAIR prior to contract award.

The Navy does not have in its possession any manufacturing data, including manufacturing publications, supporting test equipment, and associated specifications required to produce the subject item at this time. The Navy does not have sufficient information to support a full and open competitive procurement, until such time NAVSUP WSS must acquire this item from the approved source

NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORP (06481)
