About this file
This document is a single source justification for the procurement of replacement parts for an Omnipure 8MC Marine Sanitation Device aboard NOAA ship RAINIER. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration requires a bookcell assembly and spare parts from De Nora Water Technologies, the original equipment manufacturer, to replace components in the Omnipure 8MC MSD installed on the vessel. As the sole approved supplier of parts for this device, De Nora is the only source that can provide components that will maintain the vessel's wastewater treatment system certification required by the U.S. Coast Guard. Market research found alternative suppliers offer non-original equipment parts that may void warranty or regulatory approval. The contracting officer determined only De Nora is reasonably available as a source to meet the requirement.

4. Supporting rationale. Only one source or brand name is reasonably available as detailed below:
Brand Name – This particular brand name is essential to the requirement and market research indicates similar products do not meet or cannot be modified to meet agency needs.
NOAA ship Rainier has an OMNIPURE 8MC MSD installed onboard the ship and operates in areas where environmental and regulatory statutes are enforced.
Marine Sanitation Devices operated at sea must meet the requirements under 33 CFR 159 “Marine Sanitation Devices”. The U.S. Coast Guard maintains certifications for Marine Sanitation Devices in accordance with the requirements listed at 33 CFR 159.15. De Nora Water Technologies (DNWT) is the OEM distributor of the OMNIPURE 8MC MSD and is U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) type
NM-AN2120-23-01874
Source Selection Information – see FAR 2.101 and 3.104 approved/certified. The installation of copy-cat or unauthorized, non-original equipment manufacturer (OEM) components could result in loss of warranty, type approval, and certification.
5. Market Research.
There are aftermarket parts manufacturers for the OMNIPURE 8MC MSD and can be purchased on internet sites such as AMAZON or eBay. These sources do not identify if the parts are OEM authorized or approved by a 3rd party Classification Society. DNWT had litigations with an aftermarket manufacturer over misleading statements about spare and replacement parts. De Nora Water Technologies has several authorized small business dealers in the United States that can supply the OEM parts to meet this requirement.
6. Technical/Requirements Representative Certification
I certify that this requirement constitutes the Government’s minimum needs and the supporting data provided herein is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
