About this file

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for solicitation SPE7M526R0014 issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support (Columbus).

The acquisition covers 69 Radio Frequency Filters (NSN 5915016921222) for the B-52 Stratofortress aircraft under a firm-fixed price contract with fixed quantity and no options. The statutory authority for single-source procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.103-1, utilizing the "Acquire for the second or subsequent time directly from the manufacturer" justification (AMC 3). The approved sole source is Meggitt North Hollywood Inc. (CAGE 79318). The Government requires spare parts that are form, fit, and functionally interchangeable with currently used components and approved by the design control activity. The estimated base value and maximum contract value are redacted. A price analysis will be conducted comparing proposed prices to historical data and will request certified cost or pricing data as necessary per FAR 15.403-3.

Competition efforts include posting a Sources Sought Notice on SAM.gov on 4/24/2026 for fifteen business days with subsequent solicitation posting to the DLA Internet Bid Board for a minimum of 30 days scheduled for approximately 6/18/2026. Market surveys were conducted on 4/24/2026 to approved source Parker/Meggitt and distributor Jamaica Bearings. Procurement history review and general internet searches yielded no alternative sources. The solicitation contains DLAD Procurement Note L04 allowing alternate offers for future procurements and encourages potential vendors to pursue source approval through the DLA Weapons Support Source Approval Monitor. No prior acquisitions exist due to all previous purchases being under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The contracting officer certified the justification on 6/17/2026 with approval authority up to $10 million.
