This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form that authorizes a sole source or limited competition acquisition for aircraft light cockpit components.

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support is acquiring light cockpit aircraft supplies/services from Soderberg Manufacturing (CAGE 78366) under a Firm-Fixed-Price Indefinite Quantity Contract with a 5-year term and no options. The acquisition involves NSN 6220-00349294 and part number PL-6484, with a quantity of 1,185 units. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority for sole source acquisition, specifically under AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time). A sources sought notice and Request for Information (RFI) were posted on Contract Opportunities on 6/9/26, which resulted in no response. The acquisition is further justified based on technical certification data that is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, with available data meeting only the Government's minimum needs. Market research was conducted via email, with the approved source to submit a proposal. Dealers of similar product manufacturers will be solicited. The Contracting Officer Genesis Johnson approved the justification on 6/17/2026, with an estimated acquisition value of $10 million or below, requiring only Contracting Officer-level approval.
