JA SPE4A725R0069_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency. The document seeks to procure 12 Insulation Blankets with National Stock Number (NSN) 1680-017108525, using a firm-fixed price contract type. The acquisition is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15, with a mass sources sought notice posted on Contract Opportunities on August 2024. The justification indicates that the technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, and a market survey was conducted with the NSN included on the Mass Sources Sought list published in August 2024.

The document requires approval for a contract value over $15 million but not exceeding $100 million, necessitating certification by the Contracting Officer, Competition Advocate, and Head of Contracting Activity. The vendor identified is L&C Protec, Inc., and the acquisition is justified under AMC Code 3 (acquire directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC Code D (the data needed to acquire the part is not economically available). The document has been signed by the Contracting Officer and Competition Advocate, with digital signatures dated 01/16/2024 and 2.4.25 respectively.
