SPRRA123R0036_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Sole Source and Limited Competition acquisition under FAR Part 15. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Huntsville is seeking to acquire 60 each electro-mechanical actuators (NSN 1680-01-118-5605 / 145CS100-7) as a one-time buy with no options. The estimated acquisition value is redacted but falls below the $750,000 threshold requiring Contracting Officer approval only.

The justification documents that a sources sought notice/Request for Information (RFI) was posted on the Contract Opportunities website on 3 February 2023, resulting in no interested parties. Two sources have been identified with the capability to supply the required actuators: The Boeing Company (CAGE 77272) and GE Aviation Systems LLC (CAGE 05624). The restriction to these sole sources is justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) based on AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for the second or subsequent time) and AMSC P (government's inability to obtain the required data from alternative sources). A market survey was conducted based on industry knowledge, and the acquisition will be synopsized on or about 15 February 2023 with no synopsis exception applying. The justification was approved by Contracting Officer Jennifer Baker on 14 February 2023.
