This document is a Sole Source Justification (SSJ) from the Department of the Air Force Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex for procuring specialized manufacturing components. The Air Force requires one dolly shaft assembly and two clamp collars with associated bolts, which are proprietary components manufactured exclusively by Innovative Automation for a specific fin-manufacturing process. These components are critical for maintaining operational efficiency and are uniquely designed to interface with specialized dollies.

The sole source vendor, Innovative Automation (a woman-owned small business located in Romulus, MI), is the only supplier capable of providing these components, with the Original Equipment Manufacturer confirming they will not sell proprietary rights to other distributors. The Request of Memorandum (ROM) was received directly from the manufacturer, and the government will continue to monitor the market to potentially identify equivalent alternative brands. The contract value is $15,395, with an anticipated award date of 26 June 2025 under solicitation number FA812625P0047.
