This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation. The contract is for 5 disk turbine aircraft gas turbine engines (NSN 2840005442472, P/N 3022312) with Canadian Commercial Corporation (Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp) as the source. The acquisition is a 1-year firm fixed-price contract and is being justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), specifically AMC 3 (acquiring directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC V (part has been designated a high reliability part with unacceptable failure probability and engineering reliability data cannot be obtained).

A market survey was conducted, with a Sources Sought notice submitted to SAM.gov that resulted in one vendor (BHPE LLC) indicating interest but not being considered for award. The technical certification notes that technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The contract is valued under $750,000 and will be approved by the Contracting Officer, with the synopsis to be posted on SAM.gov around 04/10/2025. The vendor will be sent a Source Approval Request (SAR) package, and the J&A indicates no other parties were interested in quoting based on previous procurement notes.
