This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation for the sole source procurement of 36 Air Cooler Units (NSN: 4130-01-597-1317/70A143-2). The acquisition is a one-time buy amendment with no options included.

The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the authority for limited competition, with AMC 1 (suitable for competitive acquisition for second or subsequent time) and AMSC B (must be acquired from manufacturing source specified on source control drawing) as the specific bases. A sources sought notice was posted on February 29, 2024, receiving responses from Pioneer Spares, Sikorsky, and Enviro Systems. The acquisition will be synopsized on September 11, 2024. The document indicates this is a spare part with an approved part number and represents a military-unique requirement not available in the commercial marketplace. The justification was approved by the Competition Advocate for an acquisition valued between $750,000 and $15 million, with signatures from the Contracting Officer on January 6, 2025 and Competition Advocate on January 8, 2025.
