This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form for a sole source procurement by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support office in Richmond.

The acquisition concerns a Duct Assembly, Oil Cooler (NSN 1560-00-421-2074) with an estimated quantity of EAQ 40. The contract vehicle is an IQC with 5 base years and 0 options. The sole source is Arrowhead Products Corp. (CAGE 70628), justified under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) citing multiple AMSC codes: AMC 3 (acquire directly from the manufacturer for second or subsequent time), AMSC B (must be acquired from manufacturing source specified on source control drawing), and others. A sources sought notice and RFI were posted on Contract Opportunities on July 1, 2026, but no vendors responded. The anticipated cost to the government will be determined as fair and reasonable based on previous procurement history. A market survey was conducted through the sources sought notice posted on Contract Opportunities, which resulted in no vendor responses. The solicitation, scheduled for synopsis on July 23, 2026, will not include procurement note M06/L04 (deleted DLAD clause 52.217-9002) due to source control restrictions. To enhance future competition, vendors are required to submit a SAR package, with procurement note L22 included in the solicitation. The justification has been reviewed in J&A history. The Contracting Officer (Renee Griffin) certified the justification on 7/9/26 as not exceeding $10 million, serving as the approval authority.
