The contract pertains to the sole-source acquisition of a Sheet, Circuit Analog identified by NSN 1560013165648 under solicitation SPE4A525R0276, issued by DLA Aviation, a component of the Department of Defense, with the contracting office located in Richmond, Virginia. The procurement is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 due to the unavailability of technical data necessary to support full and open competition, limiting the eligible supplier to a single source.

The place of performance and delivery is Richmond, Virginia, and all government responsibilities, including inspection and acceptance, reside with the contracting office. A technical certification from requirements personnel is required due to the acquisition exceeding $15 million, and a waiver of the sources sought notice was approved by the Head of Contracting Activity. No formal evaluation factors, pricing data, or contract value estimates are provided, and the award will be based solely on price reasonableness and fairness as determined through negotiation. The contract requires handling of Controlled Unclassified Information and references compliance with internal DoD documentation such as AVN Form S53, but no external industry standards, packaging requirements, marking procedures, or MIL-STDs are specified. No contracting officer’s representative or technical representative is named, and no key personnel, security clearance, or organizational conflict of interest provisions are outlined. Proposals must be submitted electronically via SAM.gov by August 5, 2025, and while a Unique Entity Identifier or CAGE code is not provided for the offeror, the procurement process includes documented evidence of prior market research and competition transparency actions, including a posting on Beta SAM.
