This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for a sole source acquisition by DLA Aviation. The procurement is for Ball, Annular Bearings (NSN 3110-01-424-2105) with an estimated quantity of EAD/MAX 400, to be acquired through an Indefinite Quantity Contract with a 5-year base period. The acquisition is being pursued from Jamaica Bearings (CAGE 04836), as a sources sought notice published on 4/16/2025 resulted in only one response from this vendor.

Key justification elements include AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition) and AMC Q (government lacks adequate data or rights to data), with technical certification noted as required for acquisitions over $15 million. The contracting officer, Herbert Davis, signed the document with an approval date of 4/21/2025, and the procurement is being processed under FAR Part 13.5 with efforts to ensure competition by posting a sources sought notice. The document indicates no Joint & Appointing (J&A) requirements for previous buys of this National Stock Number (NSN).
