Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation has published a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for the acquisition of SEAT, SHUTOFF VALVE (NSN/PN 1650-00-319-0770). This justification restricts the acquisition to HYDRO-AIRE AEROSPACE CORP. (CAGE 81982) as the sole known source. The estimated value of this acquisition is implied to be under $900,000.
Purpose & Justification
This document serves to justify the acquisition of 120 units of the specified shutoff valve on a sole-source basis, citing 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits limited competition when supplies or services are available from only one or a limited number of responsible sources. Technical certification confirms that the necessary technical data is unavailable and cannot be developed to allow for full and open competition. A sources sought notice was previously posted on November 25, 2025, but yielded no vendor responses.
