About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime issued this Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice (J&A) on February 6, 2026, for the procurement of an Axle Assembly Automotive Driving (NSN 2520-01-439-5441) used on the All-Terrain Lifter Army System (ATLAS) forklift. The contract, awarded on February 4, 2026, was issued to JLG Industries (CAGE 1YHH8) or an approved manufacturer under contract SPRDL1-26-C-0063 for a base quantity of 19 units on a firm-fixed-price basis. The justification for sole source procurement centers on the government's lack of pertinent technical data and specifications required for competitive re-procurement, as well as the contractor's unique qualifications and specialized knowledge of ATLAS performance requirements. The agency determined that reverse engineering or acquiring proprietary technical data would be prohibitively expensive—estimated in the millions of dollars—and that the small quantity requirements would not justify the costs of competition. The contract value was increased following receipt of offers, elevating the approval level to the Competition Advocate, though the specific award amount remains redacted in the available documentation. This procurement action was authorized under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and was signed by Contracting Officer Timothy A. Nichols on November 20, 2025.
