This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy for a petroleum product procurement. The solicitation (SPE602-25-R-0707) covers the acquisition of approximately 52,045,000 U.S. gallons of Jet Fuel A1 (JA1) through the Western Pacific (WESTPAC) purchase program, representing 50% of the total annual DFSP requirement of 104,090,000 USG. The contract will be a one-year, fixed-price indefinite delivery contract with economic price adjustment, covering the delivery period from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026.

The procurement will be executed via pipeline delivery at the DFSP, with DLA Energy issuing the solicitation on April 18, 2025, and subsequently amending it on May 7, 2025, to increase the throughput requirement and adjust the minimum portion to be procured by pipeline to 50%. The document indicates that competition is restricted due to pipeline access limitations, and a synopsis was posted on SAM.gov on March 24, 2025, stating the government's intent to procure 280,358,000 USG of JA1 to support the total annual WESTPAC purchase program. The anticipated contract cost is deemed fair and reasonable based on market research conducted by DLA Energy's Requirements and Inventory Control Branch.
