About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation filed this sole-source justification (SPE4A626R0030) on April 21, 2026, for the acquisition of sensing element fire components from Kidde Technologies Inc. (CAGE 73168) under solicitation SPE4A625R0408. The justification covers two line items of specialized fire detection parts: NSN/PN 6340-01471259 in a quantity of 60 units and NSN/PN 35790-200-400 in a quantity of 317 units. DLA Aviation restricted competition to Kidde Technologies as the sole capable source based on statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing that the government lacks ownership of the necessary data or technical rights to procure these components from alternative sources and that acquiring such rights would be uneconomical. A sources sought notice was posted on August 27, 2025, which yielded no competitive responses, and a market survey confirmed no other qualified vendors could supply the required supplies. The Competition Advocate approved this justification on October 6, 2025, for a procurement valued over $900,000 but not exceeding $20,000,000, with the contract awarded to Kidde Technologies Inc. on April 15, 2026.
