Circuit Card Assembly

The contract pertains to the sole-source acquisition of 18 Circuit Card Assemblies and 3 Theodolites for the 416th SCMS AIS program supporting F-16 systems, issued under solicitation SPRHA4-26-C-0025 with a firm fixed price structure. The procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1 and 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) due to the exclusive possession of proprietary technical data by BAE Systems, preventing reverse engineering or sourcing from alternative vendors. No competitive process was conducted, and the acquisition avoids LPTA or trade-off analysis since only one responsible source exists. The place of performance is Hill Air Force Base, Utah, with the contracting activity managed by DLA Weapons Support Ogden. Although quantities are specified, the estimated contract value is not disclosed, and unit or extended prices are omitted from the documentation, suggesting pricing details may reside in an unreferenced DD2579 form. The contract includes no options for additional quantity or term extension, and no packaging, inspection, invoicing, payment, or delivery terms are explicitly defined beyond the general context of DoD procurement practices. Technical acceptance hinges on exact OEM fit, form, and function, with compliance dictated by BAE’s proprietary specifications rather than publicly cited military or industry standards. The offeror’s identity as BAE Systems is implied through technical data exclusivity but is not formally stated in the solicitation; no UEI, CAGE code, size status, or socioeconomic certifications are provided. No COR or COTR are named, and specific invoicing systems, payment offices, or accounting codes are not included in the documentation. While a technical certification requirement applies due to the acquisition’s anticipated value exceeding $15 million under FAR 15.404-4, no affirmative representations or certifications from the offeror are documented. The proposal submission deadline was November 12, 2025, with the solicitation posted on June 3, 2026, and must be submitted electronically via the official Contract Opportunities portal. Market research confirmed no viable alternatives, with a waiver granted for the sources-sought notice due to lack of industry response. Special requirements center entirely on proprietary data restrictions, with no additional clauses related to security clearances, key personnel, or special handling mandated. The absence of standardized FAR clauses, detailed evaluation factors, or formal inspection criteria reflects the non-competitive nature of this procurement,
