This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (6.103-2) filed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support for a one-time buy of spare valve parts.

The Defense Logistics Agency, DLA Weapons Support, is procuring 95 valve components across multiple line items with FSC code 4820, including regulating valves, linear directional control valves, and safety relief valves in quantities ranging from 8 to 109 units per item. The contract type is Firm-Fixed Price with a fixed quantity and no options. The acquisition is being restricted to Leslie Controls, Inc. (CAGE 35795) as the sole approved source based on a Formula Pricing Agreement (FPA) originally executed on July 23, 2026. The statutory authority for this non-competitive action is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) as implemented by FAR 6.103-2. The Government determined that Leslie Controls is the only source known to have the capability to supply spare parts that are form, fit, and functionally interchangeable with those currently used on the supported end item or weapon system, and the acquisition is based on urgent and compelling need. A price analysis was conducted on each National Stock Number (NSN) to estimate current fair and reasonable prices adjusted for time and quantity. The main objective of negotiation was to establish an FPA to reduce profit for all 700+ procurements in progress, with intent to renegotiate annually based on efficiencies and volume of awards. The estimated contract value and total contract value including all 11 units of contract are redacted. Market research determined these NSNs are non-commercial and found no alternative manufacturing sources. Award is anticipated with a standard delivery period. Competition Advocate approval is required due to the contract value exceeding $10,000,000.
