Suitable for competitive acquisition for the first time.

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

Acquire, for the first time, directly from the manufacturer.

Acquire directly from the sole source contractor, who is not the manufacturer.

The Govenunent' s right to use data in its possession is questionable. This code is under review and will be updated when the review is complete.

This must be acquired from a manufacturing source(s) specified on a source control drawing.

This pa1t required engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the pa1t.

The data needed to acquire this pa1t is not economically available.

The Govemment does not have sufficient, accurate, or legible data to purchase this pait from other than the cun-ent source. This code is under review and will be updated when the review is complete.

This part must be produced from class 1 castings under MIL-STD-21 75.

The annual buy value of this pait falls below the screening threshold established by DoD.

There are other sources who manufacture similar items for different applications, but these sources are unable to meet the requirement described in Section 3, as they are not listed on the Source Control Drawings. As such, they are not approved by the USAF to manufacture these parts. Furthermore, this requirement cannot be modified nor be satisfied with a commercial, or modified commercial ~em. Based on this market research, Hamilton Sundstrand was found to be the only source able to fulfill the requirement described in Section 3.

□ was not conducted due to: --------------------------------------

Additional facts suppo1ting other than full and open competition are:

[l]

Based upon the technical certification on file, technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Govemment.
