JA Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form submitted by DLA Weapon Support-Aviation for a sole source acquisition under FAR Part 15. The acquisition concerns a Monitor Environment supply item (NSN 5840-01-674-5606, Quantity MCQ-51) for a 5-year indefinite quantity contract with an estimated value that is redacted. The statutory authority cited is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), permitting acquisition from only one source when supplies are available from a limited number of sources.

The justification indicates that a Sources Sought notice was posted on www.sam.gov on 02/20/26, but no responses were received. The sole source is identified as Howell Laboratories Inc. (CAGE 22501), selected under authority AMC 3 (acquire for the second or subsequent time directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC R (Government does not own data rights needed to purchase from another source; not economical to procure data). The document notes that the material has one approved source (05825) and the Government does not own the data necessary to make this material fully competitive. A market survey was conducted, and the acquisition will be synopsized on 02/23/26 with solicitation copies provided to interested parties. The Competition Advocate (Yolanda Calvin Maupin) and Contracting Officer (Genesis Johnson) have certified the justification's accuracy for a contract value exceeding $900,000 but not exceeding $20 million.
