Contract & Timeline

Type: Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (leading to a Firm Fixed Price contract)
Solicitation Number: SPE4A626R0126
Quantity: 1,517 units
Set-Aside: Limited Competition (due to sole/limited source justification)
Published Date: June 11, 2026
Place of Performance: Richmond, VA 23237, United States

Justification & Process

This acquisition is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits procurement from only one or a limited number of sources. The primary reasons are that technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, and the acquisition is restricted to sources known to have the capability. A Sources Sought notice was posted on SAM.gov on March 13, 2026, and a synopsis was planned for on or about March 23, 2026. The solicitation will be posted to DIBBS. Two sources, GM Tech Services Corp (CAGE 7CZE3) and Circuit Assembly (CAGE 9AXF2), have indicated interest. Actions to overcome barriers to competition include posting the synopsis and solicitation to allow other interested manufacturers to submit source approval packages.
