About this file

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Construction and Equipment Supply Chain for a single-source procurement action.

The DLA seeks to procure a Fluid Core Assembly (National Stock Number 4420-01-281-2470) manufactured exclusively by Aqua-Chem, Inc., part number 534-09630-000. The annual estimated quantity is 65 units. The justification asserts that Aqua-Chem is the only approved source capable of supplying this item and that no other sources exist that can satisfy the Government's requirements. The procurement authority relies on 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1), implemented through Class Deviation 2026-00017 Revision 2 and related FAR provisions, which permit other than full and open competition when only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Market research was conducted from May 28, 2026 to June 10, 2026, with a Sources Sought Notice issued on May 28, 2026 and closed on June 26, 2026. The contracting officer determined anticipated costs would be fair and reasonable based on certified cost or pricing data analysis. In an effort to overcome barriers to competition, the solicitation will include procurement notes encouraging submission of alternate offers, with the Navy Engineering Systems Activity (ESA) having been consulted regarding alternative sources. The justification was approved by the DLA Troop Support Competition Advocate and is marked as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) subject to source selection protection under FAR regulations.
