This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) document from DLA Aviation at Tinker AFB for the sole-source procurement of 6 aircraft turbine nozzles (NSN 2840-01-632-5800OK/6029T45G14). The procurement is a new action with a firm-fixed-price, fixed quantity contract without options, with General Electric Company (CAGE: 99207) identified as the sole source.

The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the authority, with market research conducted on May 10, 2023 finding no commercial alternatives available. A Sources Sought notice was posted on SAM.gov on April 11, 2023 (FD2030-22-01806) with no responses received. The item requires engineering source approval and is classified as a Critical Safety Item, with GE being the only qualified source meeting the Manufacturer Qualification Requirements. The acquisition will be synopsized on March 8, 2024. The contracting officer will conduct a price analysis to ensure fair and reasonable pricing, with the Competition Advocate's approval required as the value exceeds $750,000 but is under $15 million.
