IV.  STATUTORY AUTHORITY PERMITTING OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

10 USC 2304(c), as implemented by FAR 6.302 (FAR 6.303-2(a)(4)).

Note:  For class J&As, all contracts within the class should fall within the same statutory authority.  Where a different authority must be used for any contract action, a separate J&A should be prepared.
