Oxygen Mask JA REDACTED.pdf

This is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition document submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support, Construction and Equipment (C&E) Supply Chain for a single-source procurement from Gentex Corporation.

The procurement covers three replacement components for Gentex Oxygen Masks: Mask Light Assembly (Part G030-1500-01, NSN 6220-01-620-1410), External Assembly Mask Light (Part G030-1510-01, NSN 6220-01-621-4540), and Internal Assembly Mask Light (Part G030-1530-01, NSN 6220-01-620-1407). Gentex Corporation is identified as the sole manufacturer and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of these items. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 as the statutory authority for the other than full and open competition action, asserting that only Gentex can satisfy the Government's needs because the items are proprietary and no known substitutes or similar items meet minimum requirements. According to Engineering Support Activity (ESA) evaluation, the data cannot be obtained as it is proprietary to Gentex. A Sources Sought Notice was issued on August 6, 2025, for a thirty-day period through the Contract Opportunities website. The Contracting Officer, Jessica Sheaffer, certified the anticipated cost to the Government as fair and reasonable. The justification was approved by the DLA Troop Support Competition Advocate and signed on January 8, 2026.
