Summary: CUI Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), Aviation/Richmond FMAB division, for the acquisition of a Blade Turbine Rotor (NSN 2840-01157651, PN 2-121-142-10). The Government is acquiring 1,387 units of this part from Honeywell International Inc. (CAGE 99193) on a sole-source basis under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits acquisitions from only one or limited sources when available.

The justification cites multiple AMSC codes supporting sole-source authority, primarily AMSC 3 (acquire for the second or subsequent time directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC P (Government lacks data rights needed to purchase from alternative sources). Additional supporting factors include a technical certification on file indicating technical data is unavailable for full and open competition, and data presently available reflects minimum Government needs. A Sources Sought notice was posted on SAM.GOV on 09/18/2025, resulting in only one reply. The acquisition includes efforts to syndicate the RFI on 04/10/2025 to solicit additional sources. The estimated value (redacted) falls between $750,000 and $15 million, requiring Competition Advocate approval. Technical personnel, the Competition Advocate (Yolanda Calvin Maupin, dated 4.9.25), and the Contracting Officer (Tamirra Nelson) have certified this justification as accurate and complete.
