About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on April 30, 2026, for the procurement of one Titanium Cleaner, Metal Spray Stripping, CRES Steel Passivation, and Alkaline Metal Stripping Electrochemical Cleaning Process line (C2) with turnkey services including shop installation, removal of old equipment, and technical data (part/LSN number 3426-N30000400). The justification for sole-source procurement to Engineering and Software System Solutions, Inc. (CESS, CAGE 6LK94) was based on substantial cost duplication and unacceptable delays under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), as a market survey conducted via SAM.gov from March 5-12, 2025, determined that only CESS possessed the required capability to meet the government's specifications. The contract was awarded to CESS on April 29, 2026, under solicitation number SPE4A826P0040, with an estimated acquisition value exceeding $750,000 but not exceeding $15 million, though the exact award amount was not disclosed. The acquisition included statutory authority under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) for restricted sources of supply, with fair and reasonable pricing to be determined through comparison of historically awarded contract prices and vendor-provided cost information subject to contracting officer review. The justification was approved by Contracting Officer Richard D. Alexander, Jr. on March 25, 2025, and Competition Advocate Antonio Torres on March 31, 2025.
