Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy has published a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for Operation Epic Fury Support. This action supports a sole-source modification to an existing contract (SPE60524D9403) with Stonewin International, LLC for the procurement of Aviation Jet Fuel (JA1).
Purpose & Scope
This document justifies the modification of contract SPE60524D9403 to acquire 1,100,000 U.S. gallons of JA1 aviation fuel for Operation Epic Fury. The justification is based on "unusual and compelling urgency" (FAR 6.302-2) and the determination that Stonewin International, LLC is the "only one responsible source" capable of meeting the agency's requirements. The scope includes the transportation of fuel from commercial trucks directly to the military side of the airbase.
Contract Details
- Action Type: Justification for Sole-Source Modification
- Existing Contract: SPE60524D9403
- Contractor: Stonewin International, LLC
- Estimated Modification Value: $6,875,000.00
- Unit Price: $6.25 per gallon
- Delivery Period: April 3, 2026, through November 30, 2027, with a 30-day carry-over period.
- Original Contract Period: May 1, 2024, through November 30, 2027, with a six-month option.
Eligibility & Response
This is a justification for a sole-source modification and not a solicitation for proposals. Therefore, there are no submission or evaluation criteria for external bidders. The action was approved under FAR 6.302-2 and FAR 6.302-1.
- Set-Aside: Not applicable (sole-source modification).
Additional Notes
The urgency for this modification arose from a logistical constraint at the airbase, which prohibited fuel transport from the civilian to the military side. Stonewin International, LLC was identified as the sole vendor under contract for aviation fuel with the necessary infrastructure and clearances to deliver directly to the military side. Due to the urgent nature of the requirement, this contract modification was not synopsized.
