This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI Form S53, NOV 2024) submitted by DLA Aviation for a sole source acquisition from RTX Corporation (CAGE 55820).

The acquisition is for impeller assemblies for aircraft (NSN 1650015420084, part number 4502085) in a quantity of 167 each. The contracting activity is DLA Aviation - FMB under solicitation number SPE4A525R0279. This is a firm fixed price contract with no options and is being pursued under FAR Part 15 authority. The procurement is restricted to a single source based on the determination that RTX Corporation is the only supplier capable of furnishing the required supplies. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority, with AMC 3 (acquiring for the second or subsequent time directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC C (part requires engineering source approval to maintain quality) selected as the applicable authority codes. A sources sought notice/RFI was posted on SAM.gov on 07/24/2025, resulting in one vendor response, after which a SAR Letter was issued for future procurements. The anticipated cost to the Government will be determined through FAR Part 15 negotiations. The acquisition is synopsized on or about 08/06/25, and the justification has been approved at the Competition Advocate level (over $750,000 but not exceeding $15 million).
