This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI Form S53) supporting a sole source acquisition by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma.

The acquisition concerns rotary select valves (NSN 4820003133307RK/3U3173-107) with an estimated quantity of 60 units. The contract is firm-fixed-price with fixed quantity and includes no options. A Sources Sought notice was posted to SAM.gov on November 27, 2024, with a closing date of December 5, 2024, which resulted in no vendor interest. The anticipated acquisition will be synopsized on or about May 27, 2025. The sole source justification is based on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing that Woodward HRT Inc (CAGE 81873) is the only known source capable of furnishing the required supplies. The justification indicates the item is AMSC "D" coded (data not economically available) and that reverse engineering is not feasible. A market survey was conducted using Google, Thomas Register, Haystack, and manufacturer websites, confirming Woodward HRT Inc as the sole capable source. The contracting officer determined that anticipated costs will be fair and reasonable. The Contracting Officer (Lori L Lumsden) certified the justification on May 19, 2025, the Competition Advocate (Tracy Clendennen) approved it on May 30, 2025, and the Head of Contracting Activity approval is pending for this acquisition exceeding $750,000 but not exceeding $15 million.
