About this file
This document is a justification for a limited competition sole source contract award. The contract is for 26 actuator, electro-mechanical units with a National Stock Number of 4810-01-307-7245. The justification cites FAR 6.302-1 for restricting competition to the only known source, ITT Aerospace Controls with CAGE code 73760. A sources sought notice was posted on January 6, 2022 with no responses. The item requires engineering source approval and proprietary data to acquire from other than the current vendor. The contract will be a firm-fixed-price award for an estimated $104,000. The contracting agency is the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation. The contract SPRTA1-22-C-0318 was awarded on May 17, 2022 to an unknown vendor for an unknown amount. The justification analyzes the item's technical characteristics and market conditions to argue restricted competition is necessary and pricing will be fair and reasonable.
