The current need for operational components does not allow for unqualified sources to take the time necessary to reverse engineer each component to conduct a repair therefore, sole source repair from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) is recommended. Authority: 10 U.S.C.2304 (c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source, and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. Due to lack of technical data, this effort will be sole source to Aerosonic, LLC; 1212 N Hercules Ave; Clearwater, Florida 33765-1920. CAGE: 98810 is the OEM therefore this requirement will be sole source to: Aerosonic, LLC. (Cage: 98810).
