This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation. The acquisition is for 72 units of PLATE,STRUCTURAL.AI with NSN 1560-017069325/9-5837-33. The contract is a large buy RFP, and a sources sought notice was posted on March 25, 2025, which resulted in responses from two companies with CAGE codes 9SWS7 and 5GJ71.

The market survey indicated that technical certification is required for acquisitions over $15 million, and the technical data is not currently available to permit full and open competition. Dealers of manufacturers will be solicited, and the acquisition specialist anticipates the cost to the government will be fair and reasonable. The document requires approval from the Contracting Officer, Competition Advocate, and Head of Contracting Activity, with signatures from Claudette Atkins (Branch Chief) and Yolanda Calvin Maupin (Competition Advocate) dated 5/5/2025 and 5.5.25 respectively.
