(Redacted) 4. Identification of the justification rationale and, if applicable, a demonstration of the proposed contractor’s unique qualifications to provide the required supply or service. 10 U.S.C. 2304(c) (1) - Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, FAR 6.302-1. NSWC PCD Code S11 has a requirement to acquire Seal Delivery Vehicle (SDV) Diver Communication Cable Assemblies. NAVSEA Drawing 7648254, Rev C lists Brantner & Associates, Inc doing business as TE Connectivity MOG as the approved source of supply. Teledyne D.G. O’Brien, Inc, and Ocean Design, Inc. are also listed as sources of supply. Ocean Design, Incorporated was bought by Teledyne D.G. O’Brien, Inc. Teledyne D.G. O’Brien, Inc. is now Teledyne Instruments, Inc. doing business as DGO, Teledyne D.G. O’Brien Division. Teledyne has indicated that they do not manufacture this item; therefore, the only approved source of supply is Brantner & Associates. No other brands are approved. If other sources were to be used, their products would have to undergo extensive testing to ensure compatibility with the SDV MK11 system. These tests would be prohibitively costly and could take up to 8 months to complete. As such, the government does not expect significant savings through full and open competition and it is more advantageous to the Government to award on a sole source basis to Brantner & Associates, doing business as TE Connectivity MOG for the items as listed in paragraph 3 above. 5. A determination by the ordering activity contracting officer that the order represents the best value consistent with FAR 13.106-1(b). The Contracting Officer has determined that the order represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the Government’s needs. 6. A description of the market research conducted among schedule holders and the results or a statement of the reason market research was not conducted. This requirement will be synopsized on the Contract Opportunities website at sam.gov per FAR Part 5.2. No additional market research was conducted for the reasons discussed in paragraph 4 above, for any company other than Brantner & Associates, doing business as TE Connectivity MOG, to provide the products. 7. Any other facts supporting the justification. None. 8. A statement of the actions, if any, the agency may take to remove or overcome any barriers that led to the restricted consideration before any subsequent acquisition for the supplies or services is made. As stated in paragraph 4 above, Brantner & Associates, doing business as TE Connectivity MOG is the only source that can meet the requirement.
