This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a sole source procurement by DLA Aviation. The acquisition is for a bearing (NSN 3120-01-356-6970) with an estimated value that is redacted, using an Indefinite Quantity Contract with a 5-year base period. A sources sought notice was posted on 6/6/2025, which received two dealer responses from Jamaica Bearings Group and Adept Fasteners.

The procurement is being conducted under FAR Part 13.5 and is justified based on AMSC B criteria, which requires the item to be acquired from a manufacturing source specified on a source control drawing. The market research included a sources sought notice to increase competition, and the Acquisition Specialist anticipates the price will be fair and reasonable based on previous history. The procurement requires approval at the Head of Contracting Activity level due to the contract value being over $15 million but under $100 million. The contracting officer and competition advocate have certified the documentation as accurate and complete.
