This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition, prepared by the Defense Logistics Agency for the acquisition of shaft assembly fuel components.

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), Contracting Activity DLA Aviation-FAQA2, is acquiring 305 units of shaft assembly fuel (NSN 2915-00786341823066) under a Fixed-Price Large Buy Request for Proposal (RFP). The acquisition is classified as a new action under FAR Part 15. The estimated value is redacted, with total dollar value inclusive of any options also redacted. The contracting officer has determined that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable based on price comparison with historical pricing, published market prices, and commodity indices.

The justification for limiting competition to a single source, Triumph Engine Control Systems LLC (CAGE 11599), is based on two primary factors: AMSC D (data needed to acquire the part is not economically available) and AMSC D (the data needed to acquire this part is not economically available). A sources sought notice and Request for Information (RFI) were posted to Contract Opportunities on May 25, 2025, and CAGE 9SWS7 responded to the sources sought inquiry. A market survey was conducted identifying interested vendors; however, technical data availability constraints limit competitive acquisition. The acquisition will be synopsized on Contract Opportunities on June 19th to allow other interested manufacturers to submit source approval request (SAR) packages for DLA's consideration. Approval is at the Competition Advocate level (over $750,000 but not exceeding $15,000,000), with certification dated June 13, 2025.
