About this file
This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) document for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime. The procurement is for 101 Flow Control Valves (NSN 4820-017149246) for the M-1 Abrams Tank, with Woodward HRT Inc. (CAGE 81873) identified as the sole approved manufacturer. The acquisition is being conducted under FAR 6.302-1, citing 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority, specifically using Authority for Miscellaneous Codes (AMC) 3 for acquiring the item directly from the manufacturer for the second or subsequent time.
The solicitation (SPE7M425R0011) will be synopsized on SAM.gov on 01/31/25 for 15 days and posted on the DLA Internet Bid Board System for 30 days. A Sources Sought Notice was previously posted on 09/27/24, which yielded only one business. A market survey was conducted on the same date, with Woodward HRT Inc. being the only vendor contacted and responding. The procurement is a first-time buy, and DLA Land and Maritime is encouraging other vendors potentially interested in becoming an approved source to contact their Source Approval Monitor for evaluation steps.

4. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1.
5. The Government requires spare parts that are form, fit, and functionally interchangeable with those currently used on the supported end item or weapon system. The acquisition is restricted to the following source(s) of supply, which are the only source(s) known to have the capability of furnishing the required supplies and the only source(s) currently approved by the design control activity.
CAGE COMPANY NAME
81873 Woodward HRT, Inc.
The use of the authority at 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) is based on:
[ X ] AMC 3. Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the manufacturer.
The following AMSC descriptions are available in DFARS PGI 217.7506 Part 2.
[ X ] AMSC B. This part must be acquired from a manufacturing source(s) specified on a source control or selected item drawing as defined by the current version of DoD-STD-100. Suitable technical data, Government data rights, or manufacturing knowledge are not available to permit acquisition from other sources, nor qualification testing of another part, nor use of a second source part in the intended application. Although, by DoD- STD-100 definition, altered and selected items shall have an adequate technical data package, data review discloses that required data or data rights are not in Government possession and cannot be economically obtained.
If one source is available, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid. If at least two sources exist, AMCs 1 or 2 are valid.
On 1/28/25, the Product Specialist of record certified the accuracy of the approved source(s) and applicable AMC/AMSC codes. A copy of the certification is attached.
6. The following efforts are being taken to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable:
[ X ] The acquisition will be synopsized on or about 01/31/25 for a period of 15 days.
[ ] A synopsis exception cited in FAR 5.202 applies (Explain): __________________.
[ ] Dealers of the approved source(s) will be solicited.
[ X ] The solicitation will be posted to the DLA Internet Bid Board System for a minimum of 30 days.
[ ] Other (Explain): __________________.
7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.
A price analysis will be conducted based on a comparison of proposed prices received in response to the solicitation and/or a comparison of proposed prices to historical prices paid. Certified cost or pricing data, when required by FAR 15.403-4, and data other than certified cost or pricing data, will be requested and obtained as necessary to establish a fair and reasonable price, and a cost analysis may be performed on the data submitted.
8. Market Research/Efforts to Obtain Competition:
Sources Sought Notice:
[ X ] A Sources Sought Notice was posted to Contract Opportunities on SAM.gov on 9/27/24 for a period of five business days and yielded the following results: One business.
[ ] A waiver of the Source Sought Notice was approved by the HCA or designee on __________________ and is hereby attached.
Market Survey:
[ X ] A market survey was conducted on/during 9/27/24.
Names and CAGE Codes of vendors contacted: Woodward HRT Inc (81873).
Names and CAGE Codes of vendors responding: Woodward HRT Inc (81873).
Summary of information received relevant to sourcing (i.e., dealer/manufacturer; intended manufacturing source): Manufacturer.
[ ] A market survey was not conducted due to: __________________.
Procurement History:
[ X ] A review of procurement history for potential manufacturing sources other than those listed above Section 5 above yielded the following results (If none, so state): None.
General Internet Search:
[ ] A general internet search for potential manufacturing sources other than those listed above Section 5 above yielded the following results (If none, so state): None.
[ ] Other (Explain): __________________.
9. A listing of sources, if any, indicating an interest in the acquisition is (If none, so state):
CAGE COMPANY NAME
81873 Woodward HRT Inc
10. The following actions are being taken to overcome barriers to competition before any subsequent acquisition is made:
[ X ] The solicitation contains DLAD Procurement Note, L22 Restriction of Alternate Offers for Source Controlled Items, which advises Offerors who are interested in qualifying their product for purposes of future acquisitions that they must contact the design control activity specified on the source control drawing. (AMSC B only)
DLA Land and Maritime encourages vendors that may be interested in becoming an approved source, even if there is not an active solicitation, to contact the DLA Land and Maritime Source Approval Monitor at DSCCAO- SAR@dla.mil for additional information on the steps required to submit a Source Approval Request Package for evaluation.
[ X ] Other (Explain): Requirement is a First Time Buy so no other history is available.
In accordance with DFARS PGI 206.303-2, [ ] A copy of the previous justification from contract __________________ is attached.
[ ] A prior justification is not available since all prior acquisitions were under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
[ X ] The Contract Specialist could not locate the prior J&A due to this procurement being a first time buy.
I hereby certify that the information contained in this justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. If not exceeding $750,000, this signature serves as the approval.
