About this file

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOTFOC) for a simplified acquisition procedure for the procurement of 25 GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY parts with NSN 2920-01-655-9462. The Coast Guard requires the parts to power the propulsion engines on its 29 RBS vessels, and the HONDA MARINE brand part is the only one compatible with the existing configuration. The technical data to assess alternate parts is not available, and the HONDA MARINE brand and its authorized distributors are the sole source for the required parts. The Coast Guard will continue to conduct market research to identify potential alternative sources. The related federal contract opportunity solicits quotes for the required parts, with delivery required by September 30, 2024. It is anticipated that a non-competitive sole source purchase order will be awarded under simplified acquisition procedures.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE.

The purchase of TWENTY FIVE (ea.) each GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY P/N 31630-ZW3-013 NSN 2920-01-655-

9462 VESSEL: 29 RBS

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED. The technical data for the GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY required to make an accurate assessment of equal or alternate equipment meeting the Coast Guard’s performance, fit, form and function requirements for this procurement is unavailable. The GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY is necessary to electrically power the proper operation of the propulsion engines. Any attempt to manufacture this item without the proper Original Equipment Manufacturer (O.E.M). parts and without access to O.E.M. reproduction manufacturing drawings, specifications, tolerances/parameters, test procedures and other relevant information, could lead to major mission degradation. Therefore, any offer of parts shall be “official OEM brand”.

A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO ENSURE THAT QUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROM AS MANY

POTENTIAL SOURCES AS PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE).

Researched the Internet for vendors available to provide HONDA MARINE GENERATOR, ENGINE. While vendors are available on the Internet that provide GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY, the GENERATOR, ENGINE procured from this particular vendor has proven success installed on the 29 RBS platform. The Coast Guard does not have the means to evaluate the fit, form and function of other GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY without extensive testing.

Contacted OEM distributors to ascertain part numbers were current and available. HONDA MARINE is the suggested source which can provide the GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY currently installed.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

The GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY is a HONDA MARINE brand. HONDA MARINE and their authorized distributors is the suggested and only source that can provide GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY. This brand is installed across the 29 RBS platform, to maintain configuration of spare parts. Any and all other offers must conform to this brand. HONDA MARINE is the sole possessor of the drawings and other technical information required to properly manufacture the GENERATOR, ENGINE ACCESSORY.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL

AND OPEN COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE.

This is as proprietary commercial item of the proposed contractor. The reproduction manufacturing drawings, specifications and other technical data related to this item were never purchased by the U. S. Coast Guard and therefore are controlled by and remain the sole property of the O.E.M.

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY

BARRIERS TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED.

COTR will continue to conduct market research in the attempt to locate vendors that can satisfy the needs of the Coast Guard, including a requirement for manufacture’s engineering/manufacturing drawings, detailed parts list, design or testing procedures, and other relevant information concerning this item.
