Description
This effort is for the procurement of QTY 4 500 Gallon Liquid Oxygen (LOX) Trailers for the Royal Canadian Air Force F/A-18 program.
The 500 Gallon LOX trailer as a means to transport liquid oxygen to support flightline maintenance activities.
Under authority 10 U.S.C.2304(c)(1) and implemented in FAR 6.302-1(b)(1)(i), this authority shall be used when the program needs can only be satisfied from only one source with unique capabilities.
Any attempt to procure a different part number would require the Government to fund a Preliminary Design Review (PDR) Critical Design Review (CDR) First Article Test (FAT) and Test & Evaluation (T&E) effort for a new vendor.
The Government would have to fund personnel to be on the Source Selection Team to review proposals.
Any change in form, fit or function would require changes to the existing Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) (technical publications, spares inventory, calibration) which would incur additional costs for update in the amount of $200,000 to $250,000.
