Limiting_Competition_Under_250K_MANDATORY_signed_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Micro-Purchase Threshold (MFR) Justification for Limiting Competition under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) for the U.S. Army Contracting Command at Rock Island Arsenal. The procurement is for a SNAP-ON Army's General Mechanics Tool Kit (GMTK), with a quantity of 135A, priced on 9/29/2025. MWMSS Engineering is proposed to fill the production for this material, with a potential work stoppage risk if the material is not received in time.

The document indicates a new requirement with fixed-price pricing, using FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) authority for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. The contract action is a brand name restriction over $30K, which will be redacted and posted with the solicitation. Market research was conducted through a Google search to determine kit availability, with the current GMTK contract recently ended and a new contract not available for ordering until September 2026. The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable based on a comparison of quoted prices to the Snap On website.
