**	****For example, the Navy’s Aviation Supply Office in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, purchased the identical speed decreaser gearbox directly from General Electric. General Electric’s price to Navy’s Aviation Supply Office under a basic ordering agreement (F34601-79-G-0213-GBMT) for 46 gearboxes ordered in August 1981 was $79,968 each, for a total of $3,678,528. This unit price is substantially lower than the $124,880 price negotiated by NAVAIR with Kaman in June 1982 on contract -0113 ($4,495,698 divided by 36). The following section shows potential savings by breaking out these items.     ****	**
**	****Potential Savings by Breakout. DCAS files showed that DCAA, DCAS, and the Navy Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) recommended the gearboxes for breakout. Also, DCAS officials have stated that the overhead and profit charged by General Electric and Kaman were excessive and the PCO was so informed. The final decision on price and whether to break out the buy, however, was made buy NAVAIR. In a January 11, 1983 memorandum the NAVAIR program manager indicated that although breakout could save costs, the contractor furnished equipment method was being used           problems and the time lag since it last manufactured this part. We were told that****	**** ****	****                    .                                            however, no reason was given by the program manager for not buying the                                                           .   ****	****	****	****	****	****	****	**
**      ****We also found no evidence                  had adversely affected delivery of helicopters to the Government on the Navy contracts cited previously. Current        ****	****	****      are ahead of Schedule. We therefore believe the Navy should avail itself of the substantial savings that can be achieved by breaking out these items as follows.****	****	**** ****	****	****	****                           **

**	****Proprietary Rights. According to the NAVAIR program manager, the reason for not breaking out the gearboxes for direct purchase                              proprietary rights on special tooling for the         gearboxes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 ****	****     ****	****	****	****competitively on an Air Force contract (F41608-82-R-2618) for the gearboxes in the mid-1982. Our review of available documentation indicated that the special tooling in question had been paid for by the Government                                                    no objection to its use on a noninterference                                                       We also noted that contract -0013 contains a special tooling clause which appears to us to give the Government full rights to usage (Defense Acquisition Regulation 7-104.25). Even if a legal claim for proprietary rights could be established by                                                                                                                                                substantial savings can be achieved by purchasing the gearboxes****	****  ****	****	****	****	****                           **
