This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition, a federal contracting document supporting an acquisition decision by DLA Weapons Support in Richmond.

The procurement concerns a Power Control Asset (NSN 1680-015577523) with an estimated annual quantity of 20 units and a 3-year requirement totaling 60 units. The acquisition is structured as a Firm Fixed Price Indefinite Quantity Contract for a 3-year base period with no options. The contracting activity is DLA Weapons Support - FAQE under solicitation number SPE4A726R0378. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority, identifying two identified sources with capability: Boeing (CAGE 77272) and Logic SPA (CAGE A2829). The sources of supply are restricted based on two primary factors: AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC P (the rights to use data needed to purchase the part from additional sources are not owned by the Government and cannot be purchased, developed, or otherwise obtained).

The Government conducted market research efforts including posting a sources sought notice and RFI on SAM.GOV on January 22, 2026, which resulted in no responses. A synopsis is scheduled for January 31, 2026, and any firm requesting a solicitation copy will be provided one. The justification emphasizes that technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, representing the primary impediment to broader competition. The Competition Advocate and Contracting Officer have approved this justification for an acquisition estimated between $900,000 and $20,000,000, requiring approval at the Competition Advocate level per FAR 6.304.
