About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency published this Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for a bilateral contract modification to increase the strategic buffer quantity of bearing grade specialty steel materials for military and aerospace applications. The modification awarded to Carpenter Technology Corporation under contract SP8000-22-C-0013 will increase the total buffer quantity by 597,845 pounds across three specialized steel grades (300M, 4330, and ESR 4340). The sole source justification is based on Carpenter Technology being the only DoD-approved producer of these bearing grade specialty steel materials, with market research confirming no other viable sources exist. The contract is currently in Option Year 2 with potential extension through Option Year 4, expiring September 29, 2027. The modification addresses critical supply chain challenges affecting DLA's Aviation, Land & Maritime, and Troop Support sectors, where excessive lead times for these specialized materials have created operational impacts. While the specific award amount was redacted from the documentation, the contract was awarded on July 28, 2025, and supports buffer strategies for aerospace, casting, forging, tubing, and welding applications.
