This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation AHCB. The procurement is for 41 Simulator Assembly, MLPA Trainer units, with a firm fixed-price contract type and one-time buy. The acquisition is being conducted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15, with a sources sought notice published on SAM.gov from January 29 to February 3, 2025, which received no responses.

The document indicates this is a unique military requirement for a spare part with an approved part number that is not available in the commercial marketplace. A market research effort was conducted using Market Research Acquisition Memo (BAM) 2015.27, and technical certification data is not available to permit full and open competition. The contracting officer, Thomas Gunter, is seeking approval for this sole-source acquisition not exceeding $750,000, with Inter Coastal Electronics Inc. identified as the potential source. The document emphasizes ongoing efforts to encourage firms to seek source approval for future competitive solicitations through the AVMC Army website.
