Redacted JA-SPE4A725R0018.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency-Aviation. The procurement is for 1,459 LOCK RING, TURBINE N items with NSN 2840-01-647326, to be sourced from General Electric and Moeller MFG LLC. The acquisition is being pursued under FAR Part 15, with a sources sought notice posted on SAM.GOV on 11/6/24, which received no responses. The document indicates the technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, necessitating a sole source approach.

The justification is being processed for a contract value over $15 million but not exceeding $100 million, which requires approval from the Head of Contracting Activity. The acquisition is based on Acquisition Management Code (AMC) 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC B (must be acquired from a manufacturing source specified on a source control drawing). The document has been reviewed by the DLA Counsel Aviation and certified by the Contracting Officer, Competition Advocate, and is awaiting final approval from the Head of Contracting Activity.
