Quick Summary

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation has issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for the procurement of 30 units of CONTROL ASSEMBLY, QU (NSN 1680-01-472-6197; PN 713810-3). This action justifies a limited competition acquisition due to proprietary technical data and a lack of responses to prior market research. The estimated value of this acquisition is between $900,000 and $20,000,000. A formal synopsis and solicitation are anticipated to be posted at a later date.

Scope of Work

The primary item required is CONTROL ASSEMBLY, QU.
The quantity to be procured is 30 units.

Contract Details

Contract Type (Intended): Firm Fixed Price.
Estimated Value: Over $900,000, not exceeding $20,000,000.
Acquisition Type: Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC).
Published Date: May 29, 2026.
Place of Performance: Richmond, VA 23237, United States.

Eligibility / Set-Aside

This acquisition is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), indicating that the supplies are available from only one or a limited number of responsible sources.
The reason for limited competition is the unavailability of technical data, which cannot be developed to permit full and open competition, reflecting the minimum needs of the Government.
Market research, including an ILSMart query and a Sources Sought notice posted on January 23, 2026, yielded no responses, further supporting the limited competition approach.

Submission & Evaluation

This document is a justification, not a solicitation. A formal synopsis and solicitation will be posted separately.
The acquisition may include options for increased quantity or contract term extension.
