Quick Summary
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is conducting a Sources Sought for "Owego LTC Price Pending Add" to identify potential alternative sources for specific items currently considered sole-source to Lockheed Martin Corporation. The objective is to determine if other companies can manufacture or legitimately obtain these items, which are primarily Miscellaneous Aircraft Accessories And Components (PSC 1680). If qualified sources are identified, these items may be removed from the current sole-source effort and added to an existing long-term contract (LTC) under the Captains of Industry (COI) contract SPE4AX-22-D-9000. Responses are due by April 6, 2026, 5:00 PM EDT.
Purpose & Scope

DLA intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source (Lockheed Martin) under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1. However, the agency is seeking to identify other interested and responsible sources capable of manufacturing or legitimately obtaining the items listed in Attachment 1 (NIIN List.xlsx).
