Description

Authority

This procurement will be conducted in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), "Soliciting from a Single Source, " as only one responsible source is capable of fulfilling the requirement.

Requirement

These services are required to restore the testers to operational status and ensure compliance with all applicable Technical Orders (TO), specifically TO 33D2-10-141-1 and TO 33D2-10-135-1.
