SPE4A726R0238_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) for Sole Source and Limited Competition acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation.

Acquisition Overview

The procurement concerns CASE Electronic Components (NSN/PN 5895-0169532553 / KAG-01237-000) with an estimated acquisition value that is redacted. The solicitation number is SPE4A726R0238, and this is a new action under FAR Part 15 with indefinite quantity contract type that will not include options. The sole source vendor identified is SKT2, LLC (CAGE 7CPA1). The acquisition quantity is 300 units with a minimum order quantity of 469 units.

Justification and Competition Efforts

The justification relies on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) authority, citing AMSC Code 3 (acquire for the second or subsequent time directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC Code P (the rights to use data needed to purchase the part from additional sources are not owned by the Government and cannot be purchased, developed, or otherwise obtained). A sources sought notice was posted on 3/18/24 with no interested parties responding. An RFI was subsequently sent on 8/28/25 to Kagwerks, identified as the correct supply source. Historical pricing was determined to be fair and reasonable based on prior acquisitions.

Approvals and Certifications

The Competition Advocate approved the justification on 12.4.25 for an acquisition value exceeding $900,000 but not exceeding $20,000,000. The Contracting Officer (Genesis Johnson) certified the information as accurate on 11/26/2025. Technical certification is on file supporting data unavailability and preventing full and open competition.
