This is an AVN Form 555, "Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Non-NSN and LSN Acquisitions," submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency for a sole-source procurement under FAR Part 13.5.

The procurement is for two electric ovens, 72 inches wide by 96 inches deep by 72 inches tall (P/N: 3424-N00010000), to be acquired from Honeywell Processing Solutions under sole-source authority per 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). The justification cites brand name requirements as the sole basis for restricting competition, asserting that only Honeywell's unmunitioned graphic recorder with SD card reader can satisfy agency requirements for oven thermal process data capture and analysis. The unmunitioned graphic recorder is cited as the only compatible data recorder compatible with Honeywell EZ Trend Pro Manager software and the ITPR/RMF process management network. The estimated acquisition value is redacted. A market survey was conducted between November 15, 2024, and December 6, 2024, identifying five sources interested in the acquisition. The solicitation was synopsized on February 21, 2025, with copies provided to interested firms. The justification was approved by the Contracting Officer (Patrick Hansen) on February 19, 2025, for a contract not exceeding $750,000. The Competition Advocate section remains unsigned, indicating approval authority reserved for contracts exceeding $750,000 but not exceeding $15 million.
