About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation issued a sole source justification notice for the procurement of PIN BLADE, SOLID components (NSN 5315-01-537-4652) used in UH-60 and HH/UH-60 Blackhawk and variant helicopters. The justification for restricting competition to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (CAGE 7826) stems from the unavailability of technical data necessary to permit full and open competition, combined with the original equipment manufacturer's unwillingness to sell data rights and the prohibitive cost of reverse engineering. DLA Aviation conducted a sources sought notice and Request for Information on December 10, 2025, which yielded no competitive interest from other vendors. Contract SPE4A122G0005 was awarded to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation on March 24, 2026, for 472 units of the pin blade component under a Firm Fixed Price contract structure with an estimated value not exceeding $900,000. The procurement was authorized under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits sole source acquisition when supplies are available from only one source.
