Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) form filed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA-AHCB) for a sole source acquisition under solicitation number SPRRA2-26-R-0009.

The acquisition concerns Governor Electronic Box Assembly components (NSN 2910-01-476-2352 / 13502655) with a quantity range of 220 minimum to 500 maximum units. The contracting activity is DLA-AHCB, and this is a new action without options, structured as a 5-year indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity, firm fixed price contract. The sole source contractor is Marvin Land Systems INC (CAGE 064H2). The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) authority for the limited competition, specifically invoking AMSC B (must be acquired from a manufacturing source specified on a source control drawing) and AMSC 3 (acquire for the second or subsequent time directly from the manufacturer).

Competition efforts included posting a sources sought notice/RFI on Contract Opportunities on 15 September 2025, which resulted in Marvin Land Systems responding with interest on 19 September 2025 and being informed that the solicitation would follow. The justification confirms that market research was conducted and determined that technical data is unavailable and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, with data presently available reflecting only minimum Government needs. The anticipated cost is noted as fair and reasonable based on technical analysis and historical data. The acquisition is approved by the Competition Advocate for contracts between $900,000 and $20,000,000, with certification dated 2 October 2025 by Nikki Hendrix and contracting officer certification by Jean Paul Bretz on the same date.
