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, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.

The Government has retained the right to approve manufacturing sources for these items due to their weapon systems criticality. For these items with an AMSC of C, Sierra Nevada Corp (3CN36) and Integrated Procurement Technologies (4K0V2) are the sources that are approved to manufacture the items. The identified approved sources retain the data rights, manufacturing knowledge, and technical data and this information is not economically available to the Government. For the weapons systems, including this Uninterrupted Power Supply, the military services have only approved the part numbers provided by Sierra Nevada Corp (3CN36) and Integrated Procurement Technologies (4K0V2). Sierra Nevada Corp (3CN36) and Integrated Procurement Technologies (4K0V2) are the only sources that are trusted and approved by the military services. This item is provided by Sierra Nevada Corp (3CN36) and Integrated Procurement Technologies (4K0V2) meet the technical and quality requirements identified by the military services. Therefore, Sierra Nevada Corp (3CN36) and Integrated Procurement Technologies (4K0V2) are uniquely qualified to supply these items.

6. Efforts to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable are:

(X) The acquisition will be synopsized on www.SAM.gov for 1 day prior to solicitation opening date

(X) Manufacturer of exact products identified in the market research will be solicited.

(X) Dealers of the manufacturer will be solicited

(X) Solicitation will be posted on DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) for 15 days.

7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

Prices will be determined fair and reasonable through price analysis based upon the application of the Producers’ Price Index (PPI) to the past acquisitions. Should more than one offer be received, proposed prices will be compared among all offers to determine if price competition exists. Contract is firm-fixed price with a contract length of one year base period and four one-year options that will be exercised at the Government’s discretion. A price analysis for future contract years will be conducted based on the Global Insights Producer Price Index (PPI) forecasts. The total value of this acquisition is greater than the $2,000,000.00 threshold for Certified Cost or Pricing Data (CCPD). Since the items are commercial, certified cost and pricing data is not required per FAR 15.403-1(b)(3). Buyer will use all methods stated to determine all contract years and quantity range prices fair and reasonable.
