About this file

This document is a Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) Determination Memorandum for a Sole Source Acquisition. The procurement is for a Sweeney SWE8550-RR Digital Torque Multiplier (for AE2100's) with a Purchase Request Number F8S2AS5164A001. The item is specifically designed for Rolls-Royce to remove and install the propeller shaft nut on C-130J (AE2100D3) engines. Hydratight Operations, Inc. is the sole manufacturer of this specific digital torque multiplier.

The contracting officer conducted market research through an open market request for quotes (RFQ), which received seven quotes from small businesses. However, none of the submitted products met the government's requirement. The document recommends continuing to monitor the digital torque multiplier market for comparable products. The acquisition was approved by William J. Tucker, 1st Lt, CA ANG, who certified that completing this purchase as a sole source is in the best interest of the government, subject to fund availability.
