About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation issued a sole source justification (SPE4A526R0049) for the procurement of Gimbal Flight Control supplies from The Boeing Company (CAGE 81205), the only known manufacturer capable of supplying the required equipment. The acquisition covers 92 units of gimbal flight control components (NSN 1880017000058/PN-50-3925-2) under a firm fixed price contract, with an estimated value exceeding $900,000 but not exceeding $20,000,000. The justification for sole source competition is based on the government's lack of ownership of the technical data rights necessary to purchase the part from alternative sources, as well as the authority to acquire directly from the manufacturer on a second or subsequent procurement. Competition improvement efforts included posting a sources sought notice and request for information on October 7, 2025, which yielded only one response from Ayka Consulting 1 that lacked the necessary manufacturing capability. The contract was awarded on January 27, 2026, following approval by the Competition Advocate on October 15, 2025, and the anticipated cost to the government was determined to be fair and reasonable based on technical certification and unavailable technical data that precluded full and open competition.
