This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Unusual and Compelling Urgency for the DLA Weapons Support Richmond, with a Solicitation Number of SPE4A625R0320000001. The document pertains to the acquisition of specific supplies (Collar Pin Rivet) with NSN/PN 5320-00/6689212, involving a quantity of 1,065,947 units. The procurement is being pursued under an amendment to add an additional source of supply, with two specific companies identified: Howmet Aerospace (CAGE 5M902) and SPS Technologies, LLC DBA (CAGE 80539).

The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) for unusual and compelling urgency, indicating a critical need that cannot follow standard competitive procurement processes. The document notes that a market survey was not conducted due to the urgency, and the acquisition is restricted to sources known to have the capability of meeting the agency's needs within the required timeframe. The contract approval levels indicate the procurement value is over $900,000 but not exceeding $20 million, with approvals from the Contracting Officer (Ive Allen) and Competition Advocate (Maupin Yoland) completed on 12/3/2025, emphasizing the time-sensitive nature of the requirement.
