This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) document from DLA Aviation for a sole source acquisition under FAR Part 15.

The document justifies a non-competitive procurement for 317 units of Cable Assembly, Special Purpose (NSN 5995-01-017-1230) for the contracting activity FAKB under solicitation number SPE46-25-R-0312. The acquisition is a new action with a 5-base-year contract type and no options included. A sources sought notice and Request for Information (RFI) were posted to Contract Opportunities on 06/03/2025, resulting in two responses from TRS (61CH3), DCX-CHOL Enterprises (CAGE 27456), and Hydro Group Systems Inc. (CAGE 9DAE6). The justification identifies three approved sources with CAGE codes: DCX-CHOL Enterprises (30463), Teledyne Defense Electronics, LLC (99747), and Ametek SCP Inc. (0DNZ3).

The authority for this limited competition procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), cited as AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC B (this must be acquired from a manufacturing source specified on a source control drawing). The contracting officer determined that anticipated costs will be fair and reasonable, with competition expected and informal cost and price data to be requested if only one offer is received. A market survey was conducted through the sources sought notice with firms indicating interest to be solicited. The justification was approved by the Competition Advocate for contracts over $750,000 but not exceeding $15 million, signed on 6/13/25. The Contracting Officer certification is dated 06/11/2025.
