JA SPE7MC26R0001 7011410785.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (FAR 6.302-1) for Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support in Columbus, Ohio, dated October 2025, Solicitation No. SPE7MC26R0001.

The procurement seeks to acquire 52 units of a Valve, Regulating (NSN 4820-01-143-3479) classified as Ohio Class SSN (Trident) spare parts through a firm-fixed-price RFP. The acquisition is restricted to Leslie Controls (CAGE 35795) as the sole source based on AMSC C requirements mandating engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain part quality. Leslie Controls is identified as the only source with the capability and current design control approval. The solicitation will be posted to the DLA Internet Bid Board System for a minimum of 30 days with synopsization planned for 11/21/25. Quantity price break ranges are established in lieu of options: 1-32 EA, 33-65 EA, 66-98 EA, and 99-130 EA. A Technical Certification from the Product Specialist dated 10/22/2025 validates the approved source and applicable AMC/AMSC codes.

Market research efforts included a Sources Sought Notice posted to SAM.gov on 10/21/2025 yielding only Leslie Controls' response, a market survey conducted 10/21/2025 also contacting Leslie Controls, and a general internet search that identified no alternative manufacturing sources. Procurement history review confirmed ASRC is no longer providing Leslie Control items and no additional sources were identified. The justification indicates fair and reasonable pricing will be established through price comparison analysis and historical pricing data. The Competition Advocate approved this justification on 11/25/2025, and the Contracting Officer certification is valid for acquisitions not exceeding $900,000.
