This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) form for a federal contract action under PZAAA contracting activity. The project involves the MILSATCOM AACE DOOR, with an estimated contract cost that is redacted. The procurement is being conducted through a simplified acquisition process and is not classified as a Bridge Action under the AF Bridge Action Reduction Plan.

The Government seeks to procure an EMI Shelter Man Door (AACE Door) from Universal Shielding Corp, with NSN 5895-01-532-3892 and P/N RCM-154 36X84. The door and associated specifications are unique to Universal Shielding Corp (CAGE 62314), a small business, and were not previously procured by the Government. The justification for single source procurement rests on Universal Shielding Corp's manufacturing capability to maintain site HEMP certification through HM/ST testing, combined with Peraton Corp's (CAGE 65125) role as the sole source field depot maintenance authority and repair capability for the majority of LRU assets in the AACE weapon system. The procurement is further justified by the very limited demand of one to two units every ten to fifteen years, making competition economically unfeasible. Section D notes that market research efforts identified no other sources due to limited commercial interest in fabrication. The contracting officer determined on February 12, 2026, that only a single source is reasonably available in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
