About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency - Land and Maritime issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) for sole source procurement SPRDL1-24-R-0040 to acquire AVDS-1790-8CR engines with shipping containers for the M88A2 Hercules recovery vehicle. The procurement justifies non-competitive award under FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source) due to the absence of alternative suppliers capable of providing drop-in compatible solutions, the lack of government intellectual property rights for competitive re-procurement, and the prohibitive cost of reverse engineering estimated at $101.7 million. The contract was awarded to either Renk America LLC or BAE Systems Land & Armaments L.P. on March 4, 2026, with a contract value that remains redacted, covering a base quantity of 40 units and an option quantity of 40 units for a total of 80 units. Market research conducted in December 2023 confirmed that alternative manufacturers such as Caterpillar and Cummins could not produce compatible engines without substantial engineering modifications and qualification testing. The justification was approved on October 23-25, 2024, for acquisitions valued between $15 million and $100 million, with procurement history demonstrating three prior sole source awards dating back to 2000.
