This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (AVN Form S53) for the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. The procurement is for 81 Differential Gears (NSN 3040-01-242-6619HS), to be acquired from Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation using a sole source contract mechanism. The contract will be a Firm-Fixed-Price, Fixed Quantity type with no options, and the total estimated value is redacted.

The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority, specifically AMC 3 (acquire directly from the manufacturer) and AMSC D (data needed to acquire the part is not economically available). A Sources Sought notice was posted on SAM.Gov on 16-Aug-2024, with a closing date of 23-08-2024, and no sources responded. The 422 SCMS will continue to monitor the marketplace for potential sources. The contract requires Competition Advocate approval since the value is over $750,000 but not exceeding $15 million, with signatures from the Contracting Officer and Competition Advocate dated in October 2024.
