    Avn Form S53 JA.pdf
    The document, AVN Form S53, OCT 2020, is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition, specifically for sole source and limited competition acquisitions within the Department of Defense. This form details the rationale for acquiring supplies/services without full competition, citing 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as the statutory authority—indicating availability from only one or a limited number of sources. The current action involves the acquisition of an "INDICATOR,SIGHT,LIQ" with an estimated value of $234,905.44, to be acquired as a 1-year Firm-Fixed Price contract from Clark-Reliance Corporation (CAGE 95094).

The justification emphasizes efforts to improve DoD competition, including a sources sought notice posted on September 1, 2022. The restriction to a sole source is based on AMSC D (data not economically available) and Procurement Note L22. The document asserts that the anticipated cost will be fair and reasonable, supported by a thorough price analysis. Market research was conducted, and the form certifies that the information is accurate and complete, with approvals from the Contracting Officer (Stephen Lunsford). The stated barrier to competition is the unavailability of technical data to permit full and open competition, with plans to overcome this through the inclusion of AMSC D / Procurement Note L22 in the solicitation.
