Performance Based Logistics support of 44 F414 Engine components

10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Full and open competition is not feasible for this acquisition. As the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of the F414 engine, only GE possesses the intellectual property, including software applications, engineering and manufacturing processes as well as the associated Contractor Furnished Equipment (CFE) and tooling necessary to manufacture spares and repair the subject items. A technical source review was conducted for each proposed National Item Identification Number (NIIN) to identify all potential sources. GE is the only known responsible source to manufacture and repair the F414 engine. No other sources will satisfy NAVSUP WSSs requirements.
