Statements
Authority: 10 U.S.C. 2304(C)(1), Justification: Supplies required are available from only one or a limited number of responsible sources and no other type of supplies will satisfy agency requirements.
The Government does not own the data or the rights to the data needed to purchase this part from additional sources. It has been determined to be uneconomical to buy the data or rights to the data. It is uneconomical to reverse engineer the part.
Specifications, plans, or drawings relating to the procurement described are incomplete or not available and cannot be furnished by the Government.
It is suggested that small business firms or others interested in subcontracting opportunities in connection with the described procurement make contact with the following firms: BAE SYSTEMS INFORMATION (12436)
Based upon market research, the Government is not planning on using policies contained in Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items, in its solicitation for the described supplies or services. However, interested parties may identify to the contracting officer their interest and capability to satisfy the Government's requirement with a commercial item within 30 days of this notice.

The Defense Logistics Agency, Aviation at Ogden, Utah, is conducting market research through this combined Request for Information and Synopsis under solicitation number SPRHA4-25-R-0989. The agency seeks to identify potential sources capable of providing three surveying theodolites, identified by National Stock Number 6675-01-644-9140 and Part Number 2218390-001. This requirement is classified under NAICS 334519, Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing, and PSC 6675, Drafting, Surveying, and Mapping Instruments. The procurement is intended for Foreign Military Sales (FMS) with an estimated delivery schedule of 14 months after receipt of order.
The government currently identifies BAE Systems Information as a potential source and suggests small businesses explore subcontracting opportunities with them. Current internal assessments indicate that the necessary technical data and rights are not government-owned, and reverse engineering is considered uneconomical. While the government does not presently plan to use commercial acquisition policies under FAR Part 12, interested parties may submit capability statements to demonstrate how commercial or non-developmental items could satisfy the requirement. There is no set-aside designated for this action, and prospective offerors are advised that foreign participation is not permitted at the prime contractor level.
Responses to this sources sought notice are due by September 8, 2025. Johnny Wakefield serves as the primary point of contact for this market research effort, which aims to improve small business access to information and enhance competition. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation for consideration by the agency. Performance will take place in the United States, and one or more items under this acquisition are subject to Free Trade Agreements.
