Quick Summary

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Ogden, UT has published a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the sole source acquisition of F-16 Power Supplies. This justification, identified as SPRHA4-26-C-0020, details the intent to award a contract for four (4) power supply units (NSN/PN: 6130-01-568-6552) with an estimated value of $5. The acquisition is restricted to known sources due to proprietary data and the lack of other capable suppliers.

Purpose & Context

This document serves as a justification for awarding a contract on a sole source basis, citing statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). The agency requires four units of a specific "Power Supply" (NSN/PN: 6130-01-568-6552) for the F-16 aircraft. The estimated total value for this acquisition is $5.

Contract Details

Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price
Options: No options will be included in this acquisition.
Set-Aside: Not applicable, as this is a sole source acquisition.

Market Research & Justification

Market research, including a sources sought notice posted on December 3, 2025, yielded no responses from industry. The agency has identified BAE Systems (CAGE 12436) and Ametek Programmable Power (CAGE 25965) as manufacturers utilized in previous procurements and lists them as approved sources. The justification states that the data for this part is considered proprietary, and the contractor is unwilling to sell it. Furthermore, the agency does not possess the necessary engineering capabilities to reverse engineer the data, thus limiting the acquisition to the only known sources capable of furnishing the required supplies.
