This is a Single Source Justification form for a simplified acquisition submitted by the Air Force Space Command (AFSC) on March 12, 2026, for project JTE AN/TSQ-T10. The contracting activity is located at AFSC OL: H/PZAAA.

The acquisition concerns the repair of two 5998-01-598-5644FD Circuit Cards, requiring the contractor to furnish all necessary facilities, parts, materials, data, equipment, and services to repair and return serviceable Circuit Cards to the government. Northrop Grumman (NGAS), the Original Equipment Manufacturer, owns the data rights and possesses the necessary facilities and processes to perform the repair work. Previous efforts to procure sufficient data for manufacturing or repair have been unsuccessful, and the OEM has declined to sell the proprietary data required for manufacture or repair. Market research confirmed no other companies are capable of performing this work due to Northrop Grumman's exclusive ownership of the proprietary data. The government determined that the technical data concerning repair, construction, operation, and testing of the circuit card and its proprietary components are not available to the government or other commercial organizations. The contracting officer has made a formal determination under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) that only a single source is reasonably available for this contract action.
