This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. The procurement is for J85 Bearing, Roller, Cylindrical (NSN 3110-00-825-6048), with a maximum quantity of 290 units. The contract is firm-fixed-price with no options, and the statutory authority for the sole source procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which allows acquisition from only one or limited number of sources.

Market research conducted by the Program Manager in December 2024 revealed no commercial sources for this item. The sole identified source is SKF USA Inc., which was confirmed through a Sources Sought notice posted on SAM.gov. The United States Air Force will continue to periodically re-screen the requirement and attempt to qualify additional sources until the requirement becomes obsolete. The document indicates the total estimated dollar value of the acquisition is redacted, and a technical certification is not required since the procurement is under $15 million. The contracting officer, James E. Headington, certified the information's accuracy on 18-Mar-2025.
