This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition (AVN Form S53) submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency for an infrared industrial camera acquisition.

The Defense Logistics Agency is acquiring 1,252 units of an infrared industrial camera (NSN 6635-016990665/MI-TIC-S-3) from Avon Protection Systems Incorporated (CAGE Code ILEW5) under a firm fixed-price contract with no options. The estimated contract value is redacted. The acquisition is restricted to a single source based on statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing the sole known source capable of furnishing the required supplies. The justification indicates that AMSC D (data not economically available) and AMSC D (economic considerations) are the primary bases for the sole source determination. A mass sources sought notice including NSN 6635-016990665 was posted to Contract Opportunities on September 24, 2024, with results indicating no other capable sources. The synopsis is scheduled for posting on or about February 17, 2026, and solicitation copies will be made available to interested firms. If responses are received after the deadline, they will be considered for future buys. The document identifies that technical certification data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, and if any response is received from other sources after the deadline, a solicitation package will be prepared to include procurement notes M06/L04. The Competition Advocate approved the justification, and approval authority is delegated to the Competition Advocate for contracts exceeding $900,000 but not exceeding $20,000,000.
