This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI Form S53) for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency. The solicitation number is SPRTA124R0223, and the contracting activity is DLA Weapons Support at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma.

The acquisition is for a Casing and Vane Assembly (NSN 2840 01 687 6045PR/2214M15G06) in a quantity of maximum 42 each, with one lot. The contract type is Firm-Fixed-Price with Fixed Quantity and will not include options. The supplier is General Electronic (GE) Company (CAGE 07482). The acquisition falls under FAR Part 15 and is a new action. A Sources Sought notice (RFI) was posted to SAM.Gov on March 13, 2026, with a closing date of March 21, 2026; no sources replied to the posting. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as statutory authority for other than full and open competition, specifically noting this is the second or subsequent acquisition directly from the manufacturer (AMC 3). The Government does not own data or rights to the data needed to purchase this part from another source (AMSC R), and the Government lacks the capability to perform engineering source approval. A market survey was conducted on March 13, 2026, which determined that this item is a commercial off-the-shelf part with known stock levels manufactured only for approved requirements by General Electronic Company. The acquisition was previously synopsized in 2024 and will not be re-synopsized. Approval authority is designated to the Competition Advocate level (over $10,000,000 not exceeding $100,000,000). The Contracting Officer is James Callins, and the Competition Advocate is Christopher Lally, both having signed the justification on April 27, 2026 and May 1, 2026, respectively.
