H

Multiple Method Codes

This acquisition will be solicited to

THALES DEFENSE & SECURITY INC (23386)

Only THALES DEFENSE & SECURITY INC (23386) will be solicited because the RMIUT involves inspection and review of manufacturing techniques, special skills, qualifications and knowledge required to complete the complex procedures. The cognizant Government engineering activity is responsible for this process. NAVAIR currently has THALES DEFENSE & SECURITY INC (23386) as the only approved source for the subject item. THALES DEFENSE & SECURITY INC (23386) also owns the data.

6. DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO SOLICIT OFFERS FROM AS MANY OFFERORS AS PRACTICABLE: A Request for Information / Sources Sought Notice was entered on the FedBizOpps website for government-wide point of entry on

12/28/2018 and as a result

No other sources have expressed an interest in this acquisition.

The proposed contract action was synopsized on the FedBizOpps website for government-wide point of entry on

8/8/2018 and as a result

No other sources have expressed an interest in this acquisition.

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:

The NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support (WSS) has conducted a market research per the market research document. All alternate source(s) must qualify IAW the design control activity’s procedures, as approved by NAVAIR prior to contract award. Available data including all publications, supporting test equipment availability and associated drawings and specifications required to manufacture the subject item has been found adequate. No other commercial manufacturing facilities at this time have the expertise, facilities or test equipment necessary to manufacture the subject item except THALES DEFENSE & SECURITY INC (23386) .

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. Thales (23386) is the only approved source at this time.

7. DETERMINATION OF FAIR AND REASONABLE COST:

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

8. ACTIONS TO REMOVE BARRIERS TO FUTURE COMPETITION:

To promote competition the 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. Also future requirements will be advertised in the FedBizOps website (www.fedbizops.gov) in order to encourage potential vendors to submit Source Approval Requests. For reasons set forth in Paragraph (5 & 6), NAVSUP WSS has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the subject item covered by this document. If another potential manufacturing source emerges, NAVSUP WSS will assess whether competition for future requirements is feasible.
