Waiver Rationale Summary
No offers for a domestic end-product were received in response to subject acquisition that was conducted using full and open competition after exclusion of sources. Historically, offers have not been submitted for a domestic end-product for this National Stock Number, as a competitive domestic market for this item has not developed. This is due to manufacturing limitations and the cost of sourcing steel domestically as required by DFARS 252.225-7001 for domestic end products.
