This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition acquisition. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support in Richmond is procuring Accelerometers (Electronic) with NSN 2835-0111406838 under solicitation number SPE4A726R0370. The acquisition is a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) for a 3-year base period with no options. The estimated acquisition value is redacted but falls within thresholds requiring Competition Advocate approval. The contract will be awarded to one of three identified sources: MEGGITT (CAGE 95411), SPECTRAL DYNAMICS (CAGE 78586), or GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY (CAGE 07482). The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as statutory authority, specifically AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC R (Government does not own data or rights needed to purchase from another source; procurement of data or rights is uneconomical).

Competition improvement efforts included a sources sought notice and RFI posted on SAM.GOV on January 20, 2026, which resulted in no responses. The fair and reasonable pricing determination is based on historical prices and analysis of contractor data. A market survey was conducted per FAR 10, with firms indicating interest solicited following the SAM.GOV posting. The anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable. Approval authority rests with the Competition Advocate for this acquisition valued over $900,000 but not exceeding $20 million. Technical certification on file supports the justification. The Contracting Officer (Ryan Loeffelholz) and Competition Advocate (Yolanda Calvin Maupin) certified the justification as accurate and complete on January 26, 2026.
