This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation. The procurement is for Aircraft Skin with National Stock Number 1560-014146734, with an estimated quantity of 200 EAD-5 year. The acquisition will be a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) Indefinite Quantity Contract, and the contract is being pursued under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time.

A sources sought notice was posted on 6/25/2025, with BHPE LLC responding and being provided submission instructions. The market research indicated no contractors responded to the previous J&A notice. The document notes that technical certification is required because the acquisition is over $15 million, and the technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The procurement seeks to solicit dealers of manufacturers, with market research conducted to determine interested firms. The approval level for this justification requires the Head of Contracting Activity's review, given the contract value is over $15 million but not exceeding $100 million.
