This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. The procurement is for 32 Vane Segment Fans, with National Stock Number 2840-01-619-4075, using a firm-fixed-price contract. The acquisition is being sourced directly from RTX Corporation under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), specifically citing AMC 3 (acquire directly from the manufacturer) and AMC P (rights to use data are not owned by the government).

Market research conducted on August 24 using Haystack, Parts Manufacturer Approvals, and web searches revealed no commercial alternative that meets the requirements. The document indicates technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, with the current data reflecting only minimum government needs. DLA Aviation will continue to synopsize the requirement, rescreen the item, and attempt to qualify additional sources. The contract is not to exceed $750,000 and was signed by the Contracting Officer on January 29, 2025, with a planned synopsis period from February 24-2025 to February 24-2025.
