This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form for a Defense Logistics Agency Aviation-FAQE sole source acquisition. The procurement is for seal metallic aircraft parts (NSN 2840-015418130) with an estimated acquisition quantity of 56 units over a 2-year base period plus 112 units for option years. The total estimated contract value and maximum dollar amounts are redacted from the document.

The justification is based on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) using AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for second or subsequent time) and AMSC B (part must be acquired from manufacturing source specified on source control drawing). Two companies are identified as capable sources: Stein Seal Company (CAGE 03673) and General Electric Company (CAGE 99207). A sources sought notice was posted on SAM.GOV on 05/08/25 but received no responses. The contracting activity conducted market research and determined that technical data is not available to permit full and open competition, reflecting minimum government needs. The procurement is restricted to known capable sources and will be synopsized on 05/25/25. The form includes signature blocks for contracting officer, competition advocate, and head of contracting activity approvals, with the contracting officer signature completed by Ryan Loeffelholz on 05/08/25.
