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

73342 Allison Transmission Incorporated

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 4 February 2026, 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 with the solicitation via a combined synopsis/solicitation in accordance with FAR 5.201 – Table 5-3.

[ ] A synopsis exception cited in FAR 5.101(b) applies (Explain): __________________.

[X] 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 10 days.

[X] Other: The combined synopsis and solicitation will be issued via SAM.gov.

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 15.403-3, 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:

The Acquisition Specialist issued a Sources Sought Synopsis via SAM.gov and issued market surveys to historical, the approved source, and the approved sources tier 1 distributor network on 16 March 2026. Responses for both were due 20 March 2026. The Government had three (3) parties interested. Two (2) of the three (3) interested parties are considered small business concerns. One (1) party is considered other than a small business concern.

Two (2) of the three interested parties were tier 1 distributors for Allison Transmission Incorporated, Clarke Power Services Inc and Central Power System and Services. The other interested party, Legacy Components, LLC, responded to the Sources Sought Synopsis via SAM.gov. Legacy Components did not list its manufacturer, but stated it was a dealer/distributor.

Based on the market research results, the Government does not have confidence that two (2) or more small business manufacturers will submit offers at fair market prices (no small business manufacturers exist for this component currently and the NAICS code 334418 does not qualify for the Small Business Administration’s (SBAs) non-manufacturing rule).

Sources Sought Notice:

[X] A Sources Sought Notice was posted to Contract Opportunities on SAM.gov on 16 March 2026 for a period of five business days and yielded the following results: Legacy Components, LLC responded with interest, however when the Acquisition Specialist validated the manufacturer’s authorization, Allison Transmissions Inc. stated, “Legacy Components is not an authorized Allison Channel Partner. Meaning, if they were to supply DLA with these parts, DLA would be getting non-genuine parts.

Market Survey:

[X] A market survey was conducted on/during 16 March 2026 – 20 March 2026.
