About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation issued a sole source justification (SPE4A7-26-R-0161) on January 22, 2026, for the procurement of 80 equivalent units of Duct Assembly, Bleed components (NSN 1560-00-728-9450) to support aviation maintenance and operations. The Government determined sole source acquisition from Arrowhead Products Corp (CAGE 70628) was justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) based on two primary factors: the requirement to acquire directly from the manufacturer for a second or subsequent procurement, and source control drawing specifications mandating acquisition from a designated manufacturing source. The justification was supported by market research conducted through a Request for Information posted in November 2025 and a formal market survey, both of which yielded no vendor interest or competing responses. Although the specific contract award amount is not disclosed in the redacted documentation, the acquisition was structured as an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) with a five-year base performance period and falls under the contracting officer's approval authority for acquisitions not exceeding $900,000. The Government concluded that anticipated costs were fair and reasonable based on historical procurement data, and future efforts to develop competition include requiring vendor Sourcing Action Request packages and incorporating procurement note L22 in subsequent solicitations.
