This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source contract issued by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation. The procurement is for Small Arms-Fragme with NSN 1560-014346363, with an estimated 5-year total value and an Estimated Acquisition Quantity of 716. The contract will be a Firm Fixed Price contract with a 5-year period.

BHPE LLC (CAGE 9SWS7) was the sole source identified through a sources sought notice posted on 11/25/2024, and was provided with a SAR package instruction. The justification indicates that technical certification is required due to the acquisition being over $15 million, and the technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The contract will be solicited with Procurement Notes to allow potential new sources to submit data for evaluation, with dealers of manufacturers to be solicited as part of the market research efforts.
