About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation issued a sole source justification for the procurement of 380 units of J85 Annular Ball Earings (NSN 3110-00-825-4869, Part Number 327B622P1) under solicitation SPRTA1258D044. SKF USA INC. (CAGE 38443) was awarded contract SPRTA126P0031 as the sole approved source for this aircraft engine component, with the estimated contract value remaining below $750,000 under a Firm-Fixed-Price arrangement. The justification for sole source acquisition was based on the requirement that this part must be obtained from the manufacturing source specified on the government's source control drawing, combined with the engineering authority's inability to approve alternate sources due to insufficient technical data and the infeasibility of reverse engineering given the item's criticality, complexity, and associated operational risks. Market research conducted through Air Force data systems, Parts Manufacturer Approvals, Google, and Thomas Register confirmed SKF USA INC. as the only qualified supplier, and no responses were received to a Broad Agency Announcement posted in June 2025. The contracting officer certified this justification on July 30, 2025, with the award executed on February 11, 2026.
