About this file

This document is a justification for other than full and open competition submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime. It seeks to award a sole source contract to General Dynamics Land Systems for a torsion bar suspension part used on military vehicles. The justification cites a review of the Material Master database and original equipment manufacturer website that found this is a limited availability item not sold commercially. Market research yielded no other sources. Technical data is not available to permit full competition as only the minimum needs of the government are reflected in available data. General Dynamics Land Systems is identified as expressing interest in the acquisition. The competition advocate approved this justification for the planned sole source award of contract SPE7L123R0023 to General Dynamics Land Systems for an unknown amount, which was awarded on February 28, 2023.

DLA Land & Maritime Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (November 2021)

CUI

Review of the Material Master database indicated that this NSN has limited sources. Review of the OEM’s website neither shows evidence that this item is available on the commercial market nor is it of a type customarily used by the general public or non-governmental entities for purposes other than government or military purposes as defined in FAR 2.101. Market research via internet resources for commercial sale offerings yielded no results to show that this item has been offered for sale, lease or license to the general public as defined in FAR 2.101, “Commercial Product.”

10. Additional facts supporting other than full and open competition are:

Based upon the technical certification on file in DLA Land and Maritime – VEP technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The data presently available reflects the minimum needs of the Government.

11. A listing of sources, if any, indicating an interest in the acquisition is:

General Dynamics Land Systems (7W356)

12. This item is subject to the following methods of locating additional sources:
