This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation. The agency requires two Oerlikon Metco Plasma Spray Booths to be installed, with new booths, removal of old booths, installation, training, technical data, and shipping at Tinker Air Force Base. The acquisition is being pursued under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), indicating the item is available from only one source (Oerlikon Metco). A 2020 study by PMXG Engineers found the new booths have a 98% passing rate compared to the existing 91% rate, with potential time and cost savings through reduced maintenance and improved efficiency. A sources sought notice was posted to SAM.gov on 2/1/2024 with no responses received. The document is approved by the DLA Counsel, Contracting Officer, and Competition Advocate, with signatures dated in June 2024, indicating the procurement is moving forward with Oerlikon Metco as the sole source.
