This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for DLA Aviation, involving the procurement of electronic components from Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation. The acquisition is for 6 electronic components (NSN: N998-01-619-1192) with a firm fixed price contract, and the total estimated value is redacted. A sources sought notice was posted on 8/14/2023 on Contract Opportunities, but no responses were received.

The justification indicates the acquisition is being made directly from the manufacturer under AMC 3 code, with a technical certification requirement for acquisitions over $15 million. The market research included posting a synopsis to SAM.gov, which yielded no vendor responses. The procurement is sole-sourced to Northrop Grumman due to technical data limitations, and a synopsis and solicitation will be prepared with Procurement Notes M06/L04 for DLA Aviation's consideration. The document requires approval for contracts over $15 million and has been signed by the Contracting Officer and Competition Advocate, with digital signatures dated 8/20/2025 and 8/21/25 respectively.
