This item is designated with an Assigned Manufacturing Source Code (AMSC) of 1C, indicating it is eligible for competitive acquisition for a second or subsequent time, but requires engineering source approval to ensure quality due to proprietary design, specialized manufacturing knowledge, and irrecoverable technical data held by approved sources. The only currently approved sources are ROLLS-ROYCE CORPORATION (CAGE 63005), HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. (CAGE 99193), and BOEING DISTRIBUTION SERVICES X, INC. (CAGE 2N935). Any prospective supplier seeking to qualify as an alternate source must submit a complete Source Approval Request (SAR) package through DLA’s Alternate Offer/Source Approval Program, demonstrating technical equivalence or superior performance to the original equipment manufacturer, including detailed manufacturing data, drawings, and commercial sales history. The acquisition is governed under FAR Part 12 as a commercial item, with no certified cost or pricing data required, but offerors must support commerciality with catalogs, pricing records, and evidence of non-government sales. The solicitation invites responses by May 14, 2026, to be submitted electronically to Contract Specialist David Hartrum, with the intent to establish an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with a base period of three years and up to four one-year options, targeting an estimated annual demand of 2,085 units. Delivery performance is expected to be directed to Columbus, Ohio, with acceptance responsibilities resting with the Government, and all submitted information is protected as source selection data under FAR provisions. No formal packaging, preservation, or labeling standards are specified, though items must include the correct NSN and CAGE code.
