SPE4A726R0001_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation for a sole source acquisition of structural support items under FAR Part 15.

The acquisition involves 64 units of support/structural items (NSN/PN: 1560-0134J122/8F100113-002 & 1410011-002) with an estimated value that has been redacted. The solicitation number is SPE4A726R0001, and this is a new action utilizing an FFP - Large Buy RFP contract type without options. The statutory authority for the limited competition is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), allowing acquisition from only one or limited sources. DLA Aviation performed a sources sought notice/RFI posted on August 7, 2025, resulting in only one response from CAGE 9SWS7. Three qualified sources are identified: Maney Aircraft, Inc. (CAGE 10000), Aerometals, Inc. (CAGE 32664), and The Boeing Company (CAGE 43999). The justification cites AMC 1 and AMSC C as the basis for the sole source determination, indicating the part requires engineering source approval for quality maintenance. A market survey was conducted with interest solicited from manufacturers and dealers. The acquisition is scheduled to be synopsized on September 4, 2025, with the Competition Advocate approving the justification. The contracting officer (Claudette Atkins, Branch Chief) and Competition Advocate (Yolanda Couba Maupin) have both certified the justification as accurate and complete on 09/02/2025 and 9.3.25 respectively.
