The item is proprietary and not available from competing sources. Specific pricing and dollar values in the document are redacted. A Sources Sought Notice (SSN) was issued February 19, 2026, and closed March 23, 2026, with market research conducted confirming the item is not commercially available. The acquisition will be published on SAM.gov and the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS), with the justification made available for public inspection. The contracting officer certified the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable, and the solicitation will include DLAD Procurement Note M06 and Evaluation of Offers for Part Numbered Items to encourage submission of alternate products. Contracting Officer Tiffany McFadden signed the justification, with concurrence from a Product Specialist.
