JA 25R0207 SPE4A725R0207_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source procurement by DLA Aviation. The acquisition is for 28 units of INSULATION, BLANKET with National Stock Number 1680-01-710-8525. The procurement is being conducted under FAR Part 15, with AMC 4 (Acquire, for the first time, directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC D (The data needed to acquire this part is not economically available) cited as justification.

A sources sought notice was posted on SAM.GOV on 22 NOV 24, and no responses were received. The document indicates that technical certification is required for acquisitions over $15 million, and the approval level is set for the Head of Contracting Activity due to the procurement value. The contract will not include an option, and the procurement is being justified as the technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The contracting officer (Adrienne Davis) and Competition Advocate (Yolanda Calvin Maupin) have certified the accuracy and completeness of the justification as of 11/25/2024.
