This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition (AVN Form S53), a federal contracting document used to justify procuring supplies or services outside of full competitive bidding.

The Defense Logistics Agency seeks to acquire 144 units of an Accumulator Hydraulic component (NSN 1650-0087/6095/1356-583317) for DLA Weapon Support under solicitation SPE4A726R0301 using an FPP-Large Buy RFP contract type with no options. The acquisition is restricted to sole source procurement from PARKER HANNIFIN CORP. (CAGE 93835) based on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing AMC 1 authority—suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time. The justification indicates that a sources sought notice/RFI was posted on Contract Opportunities on December 15, 2025, with only one response from CAGE 9LYF8. The document notes that the acquisition is controlled by DLA Aviation and FAO Supplier Operations, with dissemination restricted to controlled distribution. The item is classified as commercial/non-developmental/off-the-shelf. A market survey was conducted identifying interested firms, and the Acquisition Specialist anticipates pricing based on historical data and comparison with published market prices. The Contracting Officer (Calvin Peterson) and Competition Advocate (Yolanda Calvin Maupin) certified the justification on January 27, 2026, with approval authority at the Competition Advocate level for acquisitions exceeding $900,000 but not exceeding $20,000,000.
