This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency-Aviation. The procurement is for a Duct Assembly, Bleed component with NSN 1560-003695664, with an acquisition strategy of directly acquiring from the manufacturer under AMC 3 (Acquire, for the second or subsequent time, directly from the manufacturer). The contract will have a 5-year base period and is valued under $750,000.

The justification includes market research efforts, specifically a sources sought notice posted on SAM.GOV on 10/08/24, which resulted in no responses. The technical justification indicates that technical certification data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The document is signed by the Acquisition Specialist on 10/10/24 and requires approval from the Contracting Officer and Competition Advocate, with DLA Counsel Aviation reviewing and concluding the justification creates a legally sufficient basis for restricting competition for this NSN acquisition.
