31--BEARING,PLAIN,ROD E

DLA Aviation, a Department of Defense agency based in Richmond, Virginia, is conducting a sole-source acquisition for 329 units of a non-commercial, high-reliability Plain Rod End Bearing (NSN 3120014170135). This procurement is being executed under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 due to the unavailability of technical data, necessitating a justification for other than full and open competition. The acquisition is managed by the FMEAB office, with Kee-sha Eskridge serving as the primary point of contact. The contract is subject to strict design and quality control oversight, as indicated by AMSC Code C for engineering source approval and references to MIL-STD-2175 for casting quality standards. Due to the nature of the items, the contract involves the handling of Controlled Unclassified Information and technical data restrictions. While the total contract value is not explicitly stated, the administrative approval level indicates the acquisition exceeds 750,000 dollars but does not exceed 15 million dollars. There are no contract options included in this action, and performance is centered in Richmond, Virginia.
