This is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) for a Department of Navy procurement through DLA Aviation in Philadelphia.

The Navy seeks to acquire 22 hydraulic pumps (P/N 53023-07, NSN 4320016435963) as spares through a non-competitive award. The contract action is classified as Type A1 with an expected final delivery date of September 14, 2029. The solicitation will be limited to two qualified sources: Parker Hannifin (59211) and Sikorsky (78286), identified as the only capable manufacturers that meet technical requirements and possess the necessary design control, engineering skills, and manufacturing/repair knowledge. The item has been designated a Critical Application Item (CAI) by JDRS/ASE, and no alternative sources currently qualify according to design control activity procedures. The Navy lacks sufficient rights to drawings, specifications, and test equipment/procedures to support open competition. The J&A was posted on the government-wide point of entry on March 17, 2026, with no other sources expressing interest. Market research confirmed the identified sources are the only approved manufacturers with available technical data for development of new sources. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable. Future requirements will be advertised on the government-wide point of entry to promote vendor expertise and source approval development. The document includes multiple approvals dated between March 17 and April 21, 2026, including legal sufficiency, competition advocacy review, and contracting officer certification.
