F-16 POWER SUPPLY

This award notice concerns the procurement of 21 F-16 power supplies, identified by National Stock Number 6130-01-585-9805, for the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation at Ogden. The contract was issued under solicitation number SPRHA422C0015 and falls under NAICS code 33599. The acquisition was managed by the Department of Defense with the primary point of contact being Karen Wright at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. The procurement was conducted as a sole source award to Shigamo Development, utilizing statutory authority 10 USC 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1. This restriction to a single responsible source was justified by the absence of available technical data and the prohibitive cost of redesigning the components, which was estimated at 1.2 million dollars. Consequently, it was determined that no other supplies or services would satisfy the agency's specific requirements.
