This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Form S53) from the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation for the sole source procurement of 35 Structural Brackets (NSN 1560-016562018) under solicitation SPE4A724R0503. The justification is based on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) for limited/sole source acquisition, with Robertson Fuel Systems (CAGE 1T765) identified as the manufacturer.

The acquisition is a new definite quantity contract without options. A sources sought notice was posted on SAM.gov on 3/25/24, resulting in one response from D Gillette Industrial Services Inc. (CAGE 68ME8). The justification cites AMC 3 (acquiring directly from manufacturer for second or subsequent time) and AMSC D (data not economically available) as the basis for other than full competition. A synopsis will be posted on 3/25/24. The contracting officer has approval authority as the estimated value is under $750,000. Supporting documentation includes technical certification and legal review by DLA Counsel Aviation for sole source tactical acquisitions.
