TAB A1_CJA Amend 1_MUX MALE_Final 14MAR23_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Class Justification and Approval (CJ&A) Amendment 01 from the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command for a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with General Atomics-Aeronautical Systems Inc. (GA-ASI) for the MQ-9 MUX MALE System. The amendment covers the procurement of supplies and services including conversion of MQ-9A Block 5 Reaper air vehicles to USMC configurations, ground control stations, components, sensors, payloads, engineering support, hardware, technical documentation, upgrades, and associated system modifications.

The five-year ordering period amendment expands the original CJ&A to incorporate additional sustainment engineering support and procurement of Ground Control Stations not initially anticipated. GA-ASI was determined to be the sole source capable of fulfilling the Navy's requirements due to its unique capabilities and extensive experience with the MQ-9 system. No other sources expressed interest during market research, and the first delivery order was awarded on 09 September 2022, with the CJ&A authority expiring on 31 January 2027.
