This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document supporting a Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Construction and Equipment (C&E) Supply Chain procurement.

The contracting activity seeks to procure an Impeller Fan, Axial (National Stock Number 4140-01-216-4784) manufactured by Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation or KIHOMAC Inc. The requirement specifies an annual estimated quantity of 42 units under an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) with a one-year base term and four one-year option terms. The justification authorizes solicitation on an other-than-full-and-open-competition basis under 41 U.S.C. § 1901, citing a limited number of approved sources for this part-numbered item. The document identifies only two approved sources on the Product Item Description: Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation and KIHOMAC Inc. Market research was conducted from November 2025 through January 2026 to support the determination that anticipated costs to the Government are fair and reasonable. The solicitation will be posted to the DLA Internet Bid Board System (DIBBS) and synopsized in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov). To overcome barriers to competition, the solicitation will include a DLA Procurement Note M06 inviting evaluation of alternate products for part-numbered items and offers for alternate products, with submissions forwarded to the Engineering Support Activity for evaluation and approval.
