About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of 114 ball bearing annular units (NSN 3110-01-378-8486) under solicitation SPE4A625RX025. The procurement involves a five-year commercial indefinite delivery contract for bearings classified as both Critical Safety Items (CSI) and Critical Application Items (CAI), requiring source control, product verification testing, and specialized delivery timelines of 504 days after receipt of order. The sole source justification was based on the lack of responses to a sources sought notice published on October 3, 2024, with only four approved sources qualified to manufacture these specialized bearings: Schaeffler Aerospace Canada Inc, SKF USA Inc, MPB Corporation, and General Electric Company. The contract SPE4A625DC102 was awarded on June 13, 2025, to an unknown vendor for an undisclosed amount, with estimated annual demand ranging from a minimum of 29 to a maximum of 114 units. The procurement utilizes FAR Part 13.5 procedures for commercial items and includes requirements for covered defense information handling due to the critical nature of these aerospace bearings.
