Quick Summary

This acquisition, with an estimated value between $900,000 and $20,000,000, is being awarded to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation as the only known source capable of furnishing the required supplies.
Scope of Work
This requirement is for 13 units of "Door, Aircraft" (NSN: 1560-01-644-1293, PN: 70217-01002-072), which are critical airframe structural components. The acquisition may include an option for increased quantity or an option to extend the contract term. The place of performance is Stratford, CT.
Contract Details

- Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price (FFP)
- Award Mechanism: Anticipated to be awarded against a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA)
- Estimated Value: Over $900,000, not exceeding $20,000,000
- Published Date: February 3, 2026
Justification & Set-Aside
This acquisition is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), citing that the item is available from only one or a limited number of sources. Market research, including synopses posted on FBO on September 27, 2024, and October 24, 2024, yielded no responses from other potential sources. Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (CAGE 7826) is identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and the only known source. The OEM is unwilling to sell data rights, making reverse engineering cost-prohibitive. No specific set-aside is applied due to the sole-source nature of this justification.
Submission & Evaluation
This document serves as a justification for a sole-source award, not a solicitation for competitive bids. The DLA Aviation has determined that Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation is the only source capable of meeting the requirement.
