SEAT, AIRCRAFT

The contract is for the sole-source acquisition of 418 units of 16-seat aircraft components under NSN 1680-01-108-0558, awarded through a Firm Fixed Price arrangement to authorized sources CR Daniels Inc. and Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation. The procurement is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) due to a lack of qualified alternatives, as market research conducted via a December 5, 2025, SAM.gov notice yielded no responses. The acquisition is restricted by military-sensitive technology and data rights limitations, as indicated by AMSC codes S, P, R, and Z, which enforce strict sourcing controls, prohibit Government ownership of underlying technical data, and classify the component as a commercial off-the-shelf item. The contract is administered by the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation under the Weapons Support office in Richmond, Virginia, with Christy Oakley as the contracting officer and Yolanda Calvin Maupin serving as the Competition Advocate. No pricing details are provided in the documentation, and while delivery is expected to occur at the Richmond, VA, location, specific FOB terms, delivery schedules, and inspection protocols are not formally defined. Special requirements include compliance with FAR and DFARS provisions governing sole-source justifications, controlled unclassified information, and defense acquisition restrictions, with quality assurance tied to MIL-STD-2175 for Class 1 castings and other AMSC-based technical standards. The contract includes optional increments for increased quantity and extended performance periods, though valuation details are redacted. No COR or COTR is identified, and payment, invoicing, packaging, and labeling instructions are not specified. The procurement is structured as non-competitive, with no evaluation factors or trade-off criteria outlined, and compliance is governed by the representations embedded in the AMSC classification system.
