About this file
This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole-source contract awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land Warren. The procurement is for 40 Diesel Engine Block Assemblies (NSN 2815-00-394-9729) for the AVDS-1790 engine, with a 100% option to acquire an additional 40 units, totaling 80 units. The sole source is Renk America, LLC., which has proven capability to manufacture engine block assemblies meeting the MIL-DTL-62177 durability specification for North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) requirements.
The contract is being awarded under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 for "only one responsible source", as no other manufacturers could provide the specific engine block architecture for the AVDS-1790 engine components. Market research performed by the Ground Vehicle Systems Center and Sustainment Engineering confirmed that potential alternative sources like Cummins and Caterpillar cannot currently manufacture these specialized blocks. The estimated contract value is redacted, but previous related contracts with L3 Technologies ranged from approximately $534,270 to $5.5 million. The technical complexity stems from the engine block's specialized design, which requires specific cylinder head spacing and mounting holes to accommodate the V-type engine configuration.
