This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support (Columbus). The procurement is for 4 Sonar Dome Fairings for the Wide Aperture Array (WAA) Sonar Dome on a submarine, with a contract type of Firm-Fixed Price. The acquisition is urgent due to damaged existing fairings and requires immediate replacement, with a solicitation number of SPMYM326Q4004.

The potential sources for this procurement include General Dynamics, Electric Boat, Northrop Grumman, Huntington Ingalls (HII), and Globe Composites. The material was not previously in the supply system, with National Stock Numbers established in September 2025. The procurement is being conducted under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) with a synopsis exception due to the urgent and compelling nature of the acquisition. The estimated contract value is not fully disclosed, but the approval requirements indicate the value is between $900,000 and $20,000,000. The procurement is time-sensitive, with fairings required to be installed prior to undocking of the submarine.
