About this file

This justification document outlines a sole source contract award for bumper parts. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime awarded contract SPE7L122C0041 on July 11, 2022 to an unknown vendor for an unknown amount. The justification cites a technical certification that the required parts are only available from one source, Breeze-Eastern LLC, due to the government not possessing necessary data and drawings for full and open competition. Market research including sources sought notices, surveys, and procurement history involving prior awards to Triman Industries, Inc. did not yield any additional sources. The contracting officer determined the parts to be non-commercial.

Product Specialist, , certified the following on 04/14/2022:

This item is an AMC/AMSC of 3/D. This item supports the HELICOPTER, UH-60A, UH-60L, UH-60V IS a critical application item, and IS NOT a critical safety item. BREEZE-EASTERN LLC (08484) is the only source capable of making this item.

6. Efforts to ensure that offers are solicited from as many sources as practicable are:

The acquisition will be synopsized for 15 days prior to the solicitation opening. At the completion of the synopsis period, the Purchase Request (PR) will be solicited on the internet for 30 days via the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS).

7. I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable:

A price analysis will be conducted using historical pricing, the Producer Price Index (PPI), and learning curve analysis. Cost or pricing data in accordance with FAR 15.403-4 will be requested if the offeror’s proposal exceeds the $2M threshold for obtaining cost data, however, it is anticipated that this procurement will not exceed that threshold. Offerors may be requested to submit information other than cost or pricing data for determining price reasonableness. Based on the above techniques, the Contracting Officer anticipates that the cost to the Government will be fair and reasonable.

8. Market Research/Efforts to Obtain Competition:
