Scales St., Reidsville, North Carolina 27320, under existing contract W56HZV-13-D-0117, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 (a)(2), "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements". Specifically, FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(B) states, "Supplies may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of a follow-on contract for the continued development or production of a major system or highly specialized equipment, including major components thereof, when it is likely award to any other source would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements."

The MFS TRM M108 is a non-commercial item specifically designed by Isometrics (TDP owner) for the U.S. Army. The Army is procuring a quantity of 142 M108 units in support of overseas contingency operations. As described in AR 73-1, re-procurements of a current specification from a previous source that have been out of production for a period of less than two years will not be required to perform a complete First Article Test (FAT). Isometrics is currently in production of the MFS TRM M108 and is scheduled to continue until March 2018. The MFS TRM M108 produced by Isometrics has passed specific Government testing encompassing reliability, durability, performance and operational test taking place over approximately a 12-month period.

Technical data and/or drawings pertaining to Isometrics' TRM Model M108 are not available within the Government and are proprietary to Isometrics. It is the Government's belief that only Isometrics, the manufacturer of the parts, or its dealers and distributors can furnish the required parts with no unacceptable delays to the system fielding schedule.
