    Description

    The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA Land and Maritime), is seeking to procure a specialized partition drum assembly. This procurement is restricted to a sole source, Meggitt Defense Systems, due to the unique technical data and manufacturing capabilities required for the item, which are not available from other sources. The justification for this sole-source acquisition is based on the government's inability to obtain necessary technical data or rights, as well as the uneconomical nature of reverse engineering the parts. Interested parties can reach out to Kristina Wolf at 614-692-7879 or via email at Kristina.Wolf@dla.mil for further information.

    Title
    Posted
    This document, "Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition" (Solicitation SPE7MX22R0072), explains why the government is restricting competition for specific items to a sole source, Meggitt Defense Systems (CAGE 62228). The justification is based on several Acquisition Method Suffix Codes (AMSCs), including R, D, B, and C, which indicate that the government either does not own the necessary technical data or rights, it is uneconomical to obtain them or reverse engineer the parts, or the parts require engineering source approval due to unique design capabilities and manufacturing knowledge held by the approved source. A technical review confirmed Meggitt Defense Systems as the only known source with the required technical data and/or rights. Attempts to find additional sources, including contacting other dealers and posting a sources sought notice on Beta SAM, yielded no interested parties. The document concludes that technical data is unavailable and cannot be developed for full and open competition, reflecting the government's minimum needs.
