Evaluation & Competition
The solicitation (SPE7MX26R0037) was issued under FAR Part 15—Contracting by Negotiation, as a competitive acquisition. Despite being solicited full and open competition after exclusion of sources as a total small business set aside, only one response was received. Market research, including a SAM.gov Sources Sought notice, market survey, procurement history review, and internet search, yielded no additional potential sources beyond approved vendors like Jay Moulding Corp.
