About this file

This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a federal contract with Seal Dynamics to provide GT Seals for the M119 Buffer (BASE OPS) Program. The Rock Island Arsenal - Joint Manufacturing Technology Center (RIA-JMTC) is seeking to procure seal assembly, seal enclosed plain, piston wear ring, and wiper ring items from Seal Dynamics, who is identified as the only authorized dealer for these specific products. The contract will be awarded under Solicitation W519TC25Q2202, using Army Working Capital funds, with Seal Dynamics determined to be the sole source provider based on their exclusive distribution rights and proven reliability in previous contract awards.

The procurement is structured as a firm-fixed-price contract with an estimated dollar value that has been redacted. The government conducted market research and reached out to one other potential provider, but no alternative sources have expressed interest. The contract includes multiple evaluated options, and Seal Dynamics has a history of successful prior contracts (W519TC-24-P-2401, W519TC-24-P-2479, and W519TC-24-P-2525) with the Army. The contracting officer, Cathy Mendoza, has certified the fairness and reasonableness of the pricing, which will be based on an independent government estimate, and approved the sole-source procurement on April 11, 2025.
