Turbine, Aircraft, Co

The contract is a sole-source, firm-fixed-price award for 10 turbine components designated as Turbine, Aircraft, Co, with NSN 1660-01-394-2481 and part number 571545-8-1, intended for use on F-15 aircraft. The acquisition was justified under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) due to the unavailability of alternative sources and the proprietary, restricted nature of the technical data, which renders reverse engineering uneconomical as confirmed by the AMSC R code designation. Performance and delivery are mandated at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, with the Defense Logistics Agency Weapons Support serving as the contracting activity. No competitive process was conducted, and no evaluation factors or weights were applied, as the procurement was non-competitive. Pricing details, including unit and total contract value, are not provided, though a cost analysis is required under FAR 15.403-4 and certified cost or pricing data may be necessary depending on the threshold. The sole supplier is Honeywell International, Inc., though its CAGE or UEI is not explicitly documented. Technical compliance is governed by AMSC codes R, K, C, N, and V, referencing MIL-STD-2175 for Class 1 castings and affirming high reliability and source control constraints. The contract includes no options, modification provisions, or identified period of performance, and while Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is involved with FED ONLY dissemination controls, no security clearance requirements are imposed. Packaging, preservation, marking, invoicing, and payment instructions are not specified in the documentation. The contracting officer is Chrissy Turnage, and no additional COR, COTR, or PCO roles are identified. The procurement relies on prior market research, lack of responsive submissions to sources-sought notices, and technical certification that proprietary data and manufacturing capabilities exist exclusively with the vendor. The contract number SPRTA1-26-F-0244 was posted on SAM.gov on May 26, 2026, though solicitation closure occurred in October 2024, and compliance with FAR 6.302-1 and DFARS procedures is affirmed without formal clause enumeration.
