This is being sole sourced because Hi-Test Laboratories is the only facility capable of fabricating and leasing the floating shock test platform to the US Government in the required time-frame. The amount of time it would take to develop a technical data package makes it impractical to procure from a contractor other than Hi-Test Laboratories.
