Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation has issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for the acquisition of a metering fuel pump (NSN 2915-017085214). This justification supports a sole-source or limited competition procurement, identifying Norcatec, LLC (CAGE: 44AE7) as the only known source capable of providing the required item. This is not a solicitation for proposals.
Purpose & Scope
The purpose of this document is to justify the acquisition of the metering fuel pump on a limited competition basis, rather than through full and open competition. The item is critical for Engine Fuel System Components, Aircraft And Missile Prime Movers (Product Service Code 2915).
Key Requirements
- Item: Metering Fuel Pump (NSN/PN: 2915-017085214)
- Estimated Annual Demand (EAD): 40 units

Contract Details

- Duration: 5-Year Base Period with no options
- Estimated Value: Over $750,000 but not exceeding $15,000,000
Justification & Competition
The justification for limited competition is based on 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing a limited number of responsible sources. Specific reasons include:
- The part requires engineering source approval (AMSC C).
- The Government lacks sufficient, accurate, or legible data to purchase from sources other than the current one (AMSC H).
Efforts to maximize competition included posting a sources sought notice on June 26, 2025, to which BHPE LLC responded. The DLA Aviation continues to use specific procurement notes to allow potential new sources to submit data to overcome barriers to competition.
