This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for a sole source procurement by DLA Aviation. The acquisition involves 338 units of a transmitter nozzle (NSN 6620-00-955-6122) with an estimated value that is redacted. The contract will be awarded to CEF Industries/General Electric under FAR Part 13.5, with BHPE having responded to a Sources Sought notice on 10/17/2024 by providing instructions for submitting a SAR package.

The justification indicates that a market survey was conducted, but additional manufacturing sources could not be identified. The acquisition is being pursued because technical certification data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The approval level required is for the Head of Contracting Activity due to the contract value being over $15 million but not exceeding $100 million. The document includes signatures from the Contracting Officer, Competition Advocate, and is pending final approval from the Head of Contracting Activity.
