This procurement is for AVN brand name parts that cannot be obtained from any manufacturer other than the manufacturers identified in the attached J&A because the parts are only manufactured by one source and currently these are the only parts that are certified by the Deployable Joint Command and Control (DJC2) Joint Program Office as part of the DJC2 System. Substitution will negatively impact rapid response deployment capabilities as well as the reconfigurable modular capability. The DJC2 system is a standardized system and the substitution of parts that have been identified as source controlled would cause DJC2 system to be unable to meet its primary capability of providing a standardized, transportable, rapid response Command and Control System.

Deviation from the approved product baseline will impact the ability of DJC2 and Combat Operations Center Variant 1 (COC V1) to meet operational requirements and cause substantial duplication of cost to the United States, which is not expected to be recovered through competition and will cause unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency’s needs.
