A2-I.A.02 Limited Competition Justification 87-9283 window_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification Review Document for Other than Full and Open Competition for a C-130H Windshield Panel procurement by the National Guard Bureau. The contract is for a specific aircraft part (Part # 338125-17, NSN: 1560-01-483-3167) that is currently unavailable through the standard supply system and critically affects mission capability. The justification indicates that the part is specific to the C-130H aircraft and must be approved by the 436th Supply Chain Operations Squadron (SCOS).

The procurement is being pursued under 10 USC 3204(a)(2) or 41 USC 3304(a)(2) with an unusual and compelling urgency designation. The document notes that aircraft parts are normally procured through the supply system, but these specific windows are currently unavailable. The sole source justification states that one specific manufacturer is the only company that produces C-130 windows, and currently they are the only known distributor with this part available. The contract is classified as a new contract with a firm fixed price, and the procurement is intended to address an alternate deployment requirement for an aircraft this spring.
