SPRHA426R0254_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for Sole Source and Limited Competition acquisition submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Weapons Support Ogden under contracting activity OO-DLA/AUB for solicitation number SPRH44-26-R-0254. The acquisition seeks to procure 30 DFLCC I/O Cards (NSN/PN 5998-01-618-2981) under a firm fixed-price contract type with no options included. The estimated total contract value is redacted in the document.

The justification identifies two eligible sources: Innovative Solutions and Support Inc. (CAGE 0EUW0) and Lockheed Martin Corp. (CAGE 81755). The sole source rationale is based on AMC 3 (acquisition directly from the manufacturer for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC R (Government does not own data or rights needed to purchase from another source and it is not economical to procure or develop the data). Supporting documentation includes a sources sought notice/RFI posted to Contract Opportunities on 14 January 2026 that resulted in no industry responses. Market research was conducted by the 416th according to FAR 10 standards, reviewing RFI/SSS postings on Sam.gov, commercial catalogs, procurement history, corporate knowledge, Internet databases, and government screening documents. The Air Force regularly inquires with manufacturers regarding proprietary data rights sharing and performs cost-effectiveness analysis for reverse engineering options, with confirmation from Innovative Aerosystems that they will not sell data rights. Anticipated costs are determined to be fair and reasonable under JAW FAR 15.404. The justification does not exceed $900,000 and is approved by the Contracting Officer (Dennis Bouy, CO), with digital signature certification dated 2026-02-10.
