Quick Summary

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Huntsville, AL has issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the acquisition of a CENTRAL CONTROLLER (NSN/PN: 1560-01-722-3028/724VS203-2). This J&A, identified as SPRRA1-25-R-0068, resulted in a sole-source contract (SPRRA1-26-C-0007) awarded to BHPE LLC.

Scope of Work

The requirement is for 12 each of the CENTRAL CONTROLLER. The acquisition is for a critical airframe structural component.

Contract Details

  • Type of Contract: One Time Buy (OTB), Firm Fixed Price.
  • Options: No options for increased quantity or extension of term.
  • Statutory Authority: 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) - available from only one or a limited number of sources.
  • Awardee: BHPE LLC (CAGE: 9SWS7)
  • Place of Performance: S Coffeyville, OK, United States

Justification for Limited Competition

Market research, including a sources sought notice posted on SAM.gov from August 27, 2025, to September 1, 2025, identified only one interested vendor: BHPE LLC. The sole-source determination is based on the fact that technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition. The government does not own the rights to use the data needed to purchase this part from additional sources (AMSC P), and the part may require special test and/or inspection facilities (AMSC N).

Actions to Overcome Barriers

Firms are encouraged to seek source approval by submitting a Source Approval Request (SAR) to identify potential new sources of supply for future requirements.
