SPE4A626R0024_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition submission under FAR Part 15.

The Defense Weapons Support agency in Richmond is acquiring Cable Assembly components (NSN 6150-01-226-2057) in a quantity of 1490 units through an Indefinite Delivery Contract with a 5-year base period and no options. The estimated contract value is redacted. The solicitation number is SPE4A626R0024. The acquisition is being conducted as a new action using 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) authority, which permits acquisitions from only one or a limited number of sources.

Two sources have been identified as capable of furnishing the required cable assemblies: DCX-Chol Enterprises (CAGE 27456) and General Cables Tech (CAGE 6V273). Competition improvement efforts included posting a sources sought notice/RFI on Contract Opportunities on 10/08/25, which resulted in no responses. A market survey was conducted identifying approved sources; however, only the two aforementioned firms indicated interest. The justification states that technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, and the data presently available reflects the Government's minimum needs. The acquisition will be synopsized on or about 10/23/2025, with any firm requesting a solicitation copy to be provided one. Requirements will be posted to DIBBS with alternate offers and NOTE M06/L04 included to allow potential sources to submit source approval requests. A synopsis will also be posted. The Contracting Officer certified the justification as accurate and complete on 10/09/2025.
