SPRHA426R0089_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI Form S53) for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support Ogden.

The acquisition procures F-16 Electronic Components (NSN 5998013227146WF/16E10150-801) in a quantity of 8 units under a Firm Fixed Price contract type without options. The estimated value is redacted. The contracting activity is OO-DLA/AUB, with solicitation number SPRHA4-26-R-0089. This is a new action using FAR Part 15. The statutory authority for sole source acquisition is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), permitting acquisition directly from the manufacturer when available from only one source. The Government has identified two eligible sources: Lockheed Martin Corporation (CAGE 81755) and Elbit America Inc. (CAGE 0WFC9).

The justification indicates that a Request for Information (RFI) was posted on Contract Opportunities on November 12, 2025, resulting in no industry responses. The acquisition is restricted to these manufacturers because only Lockheed Martin and Elbit America own the complete technical data necessary to manufacture the subject NSN. Market research was conducted by the 416th through RFI/SSS postings, catalog reviews, procurement history analysis, and government database searches, establishing that no additional sources can satisfy the requirement. The anticipated cost is fair and reasonable per IAW FAR 15.404. A Contracting Officer at the Dennis Bouy level approved the justification for amounts not exceeding $900,000.
