SPRTA126R0097_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (CUI) document submitted by the Defense Logistics Agency for a sole source acquisition from Eaton Aerospace LLC.

The acquisition concerns 113 pump axial pistons (NSN/PN 4320011480387HS/624371) required to support DLA Weapons Support operations at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma under solicitation number SPRTA1268S0097. The contract type is firm-fixed-price with fixed quantity and includes no options. The estimated value is withheld from the document. A Sources Sought notice was posted to SAM.Gov on 09-Oct-2025 with a closing date of 16-Oct-2025, resulting in no interested vendors. The solicitation is scheduled to be synopsized on or about 13-Nov-2025. The statutory authority for this sole source acquisition is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), with the primary justification based on AMSC R (the Government does not own data or rights needed to purchase from another source, and procurement from other sources is uneconomical). Additional justification cites Eaton Aerospace's continued refusal to release manufacturing data for competitive procurement, evidenced by correspondence dated 11/28/05, 12/14/05, 3/2/16, and 1/30/18. The Government lacks rights to data necessary to develop additional sources. The acquisition requires Competition Advocate approval and is valued between $900,000 and $20,000,000, with approval signatures dated 06-Nov-2025 from the Contracting Officer and Competition Advocate.
