About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime issued a sole-source Justification and Approval (J&A) document for contract SPRDL1-26-C-0037, awarding Grove U.S. LLC to supply hydraulic accumulator cylinders for the M977/M985 Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) vehicle. The procurement involves 60 units total, consisting of 30 base quantity items and 30 option quantity items, with National Stock Number 2590-01-200-3034. The sole-source justification is based on Grove U.S. LLC's exclusive proprietary technical data and specialized manufacturing expertise for this specific hydraulic accumulator cylinder, as well as the government's lack of the technical data package and the prohibitively expensive reverse engineering costs estimated at $2,000,000 in development expenses. Market research was conducted through a Sources Sought notice posted on SAM.gov for 17 days, which yielded no alternative qualified sources. The contract was awarded on December 2, 2025, using Army Working Capital Funds and is justified under 10 U.S. Code 3204(a)(1) for contracting other than through full and open competition.
