Justification for Sole Source

The statutory authority cited is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), indicating that the item is available from only one or a limited number of sources. A previous sources sought notice on SAM.gov yielded only one response from BHPE LLC, which was disqualified due to quoting an unapproved manufacturing source. The justification states that technical data is not available, nor can it be economically developed, to permit full and open competition. The Government does not own the rights to the necessary data (AMSC P & Q), restricting the acquisition to RTX CORPORATION.

Response & Next Steps

The acquisition will be conducted using FAR Part 15, Contracting by Negotiations. A solicitation will be prepared and issued. Firms interested in future opportunities for this item can submit source approval packages to DLA Aviation for consideration. Any firm requesting a solicitation copy will be provided one.
