This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form submitted by DLA Weapons Support (Richmond) for a sole-source acquisition from Age Logistics Corporation (CAGE Code 02708).

The acquisition is for wire, rope, and assembly components identified by NSN 4010-01-597-5794, with an estimated quantity of 47 units (EAD/MAX). The contract vehicle is an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) with a 5-year base period and no options. The contracting activity is FME, with solicitation number SPE4A626RX268, under FAR Part 13.5. A sources sought notice/RFI was posted to Contract Opportunities on November 18, 2025, resulting in one response from the sole-approved source, Age Logistics. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority for the sole-source procurement. The rationale for limiting competition is based on two primary factors: (1) technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, and (2) no J&As exist for previous buys on the NSN being placed on this procurement. The contracting officer determined anticipated costs to be fair and reasonable. A market survey was conducted with firms indicating interest solicited. The acquisition will be synopsized on November 25, 2025, with solicitation copies provided upon request. Contracting Officer Herbert Davis approved the justification on November 25, 2025, with authority for approvals not exceeding $900,000.
