This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI-controlled) submitted by DLA Weapons Support (Richmond) for a sole source acquisition of bushing sleeves.

The acquisition involves supplies/services for part NSN 3120-01380467 (part numbers 4080898, 4080899, 4080900), with quantities ranging from 231 to 933 units. The procurement is structured as an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) with a 5-year base period and will not include options. The contracting activity is FME under solicitation number SPE4A626RXA01, with a document identification number 1000234869. A sources sought notice and Request for Information were posted to Contract Opportunities on 06/04/2026, resulting in no responses. The market survey identified manufacturers of similar products, with three interested sources listed: RTIX Corp. (CAGE 52661), Dupont Specialty Products USA (CAGE 55231), and RTIX Corp. (CAGE 77445).

The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority for limited competition, with two limiting factors selected: AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC B (must be acquired from a manufacturing source specified on a source control drawing). Technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The estimated cost is fair and reasonable based on previous purchase history. The Contracting Officer Francis Rettzo approved the justification on 06/15/26 for an amount not exceeding $10 million. No technical certification is required as the acquisition is under the $15 million threshold.
