This is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) document submitted by the Department of the Navy, DLA Aviation in Philadelphia for the acquisition of 22 hydraulic pumps (P/N 53023-07, NSN 4320016435963).

The Navy is pursuing a non-competitive procurement under the authority of 10 USC 3204(A)(1), citing that only one or a limited number of responsible sources can satisfy agency requirements per FAR 6.302-1. The acquisition is deemed suitable for competitive acquisition in the future. The item has been classified as a Critical Application Item (CAI) due to engineering source approval requirements mandated by the design control activity. The Navy will solicit this requirement solely from Parker Hannifin (59211) and Sikorsky (78286), identified as the only capable sources with the technical data required to manufacture, test, and certify this component to approved manufacturing standards. The estimated final delivery date is September 14, 2029. Market research was conducted on the government-wide point of entry on March 17, 2026, and no other sources expressed interest. The acquisition references a Source Approval Request (SAR) that has been received from interested parties. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable. Multiple certifications and approvals have been obtained, including cognizance reviews from Requirements, Technical, and Source Validation personnel, as well as Small Business Coordination and Legal Sufficiency reviews, all completed between March 17 and April 21, 2026.
