About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation has awarded contract SPRPA121G001W to Bell Helicopter (CAGE 97499) for eight helicopter hub rotor spare parts on a sole-source basis, with a final delivery date of August 14, 2026.
The justification rests on two grounds: direct acquisition from the original manufacturer for second or subsequent procurements under 10 USC 3204(A) Reason 3, and engineering source approval requirements to maintain part quality under ARMSC C. The item is classified as a Critical Safety Item (CSI), which restricts qualified sources. Bell is the only approved source with the technical data required to manufacture, test, and certify the spare parts (NSN 1615-015238235, P/N 449-010-120-101) prior to unit delivery. The Government lacks sufficient information rights to drawings, specifications, or test procedures to support competitive solicitation through NAVSUP-WSS. Market research identified no alternative sources, and no Source Approval Requests have been received from competing vendors. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable. Procurement authority is FAR 6.302-1, implementing 10 USC 3204(A)(1). Place of performance is Philadelphia. The Navy plans to encourage future competition through continued vendor outreach for technical data package submission and source approval.
