About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation issued a sole source justification (SPE4A726D0237) on April 13, 2026, for the acquisition of Beacon Distress equipment (NSN 5821-0161771008), specifically MCQ-22 units, under a 5-year indefinite quantity contract. The sole source award to ROANWELL, LLC (CAGE 82872) is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) based on two primary factors: this represents a second or subsequent acquisition directly from the manufacturer, and the equipment requires engineering source approval by the design control activity to maintain quality standards. The justification was supported by a sources sought notice posted on January 23, 2026, which generated no responses, and a market survey that similarly failed to identify alternative suppliers. The contract approval level applies to acquisitions not exceeding $900,000, and the Government does not possess the proprietary data necessary to make this material fully competitive in the open market. The contracting officer Genesis Johnson certified the justification on January 27, 2026, and the acquisition was synopsized shortly thereafter to provide interested firms with solicitation copies.
