About this file
This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for FAR 13.106-1(b).
The procurement concerns the purchase of 40 exhaust manifolds (Part Number 23519252, NSN 2815-01-457-1379) for Vessel 47 MLB. The contracting officer justified limiting competition to a single source, Johnson and Towers (500 Wilson Point Road, Baltimore, MD 21220; UEI: JLTYWJ82YNV7), under the brand name justification type, citing that technical data necessary to assess equal or alternate equipment is unavailable. The exhaust manifold is critical to engine operation, and any attempt to manufacture the item without proper Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts and reproduction manufacturing drawings could result in major mission degradation and jeopardize vessel safety and crew welfare. The contracting officer employed market research, comparison of proposed prices with prices found reasonable on previous purchases, and comparison with similar items in related industries to determine fair and reasonable pricing. The justification was digitally signed by the Technical and Requirements Point of Contact (Steven A. Bolen) on February 9, 2026, and by Contracting Officer Bryan Anthony Duffey on February 12, 2026.

THROUGH YOUR MARKET RESEARCH TO SUPPORT THE JUSTIFICATION TYPE:
The technical data for the EXHAUST MANIFOLD required to make an accurate assessment of equal or alternate equipment that could meet the Coast Guard’s performance, fit, form and function requirements for this procurement is unavailable.
EXHAUST MANIFOLD provides exhaust gases to escape from engine. The EXHAUST MANIFOLD is critical in engine operation. The inability of the vessel to run the engine would hinder navigation of the boat and would jeopardize the safety of the crew and vessel. Any attempt to manufacture this item without the proper Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts and access to OEM reproduction manufacturing drawings, spec, tolerances/parameters, test procedures and other relevant information, could lead to major mission degradation.
