Extensive market research was conducted including Internet market research, Sources Sought, SME input, similar research topics at AFRL and GSA Advantage were reviewed for vendors utilizing IndiCom software. It was found that AVL Test Systems is the sole manufacturer to meet the minimum requirements outlined in the SOW without adding additional costs for further equipment and installation to operate other brands. AVL does not have any authorized distributors of their equipment. The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) has already invested time and engineering hours in incorporating IndiCom software component configurations. Awarding any other manufacturer’s equipment other than that using IndiCom software will result in significant delays in utilizing the equipment. Estimates are a year or more to adapt existing programming to accommodate non-IndiCom equipment. For this reason, only products utilizing IndiCom will be acceptable. AVL is the only manufacturer of High-Speed Combustion Analyzer meeting the requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW) and current software used in AFIT. In accordance with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the justification for the lack of competition is that the required proprietary product is only available from a single authorized source.

Extensive market research was conducted including Internet market research, Sources Sought, SME input, similar research topics at AFRL and GSA Advantage were reviewed for vendors utilizing IndiCom software. It was found that AVL Test Systems is the sole manufacturer to meet the minimum requirements outlined in the SOW without adding additional costs for further equipment and installation to operate other brands. AVL does not have any authorized distributors of their equipment. The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) has already invested time and engineering hours in incorporating IndiCom software component configurations. Awarding any other manufacturer’s equipment other than that using IndiCom software will result in significant delays in utilizing the equipment. Estimates are a year or more to adapt existing programming to accommodate non-IndiCom equipment. For this reason, only products utilizing IndiCom will be acceptable. AVL is the only manufacturer of High-Speed Combustion Analyzer meeting the requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW) and current software used in AFIT.
