About this file
This document is a Single Source Justification form for the Western Area Power Administration (Western), detailing a sole source procurement for Hitachi technicians to service 4 ABB circuit breakers. During routine maintenance, the breakers at the GSO substation were found to be out of specification for timing and contact resistance. Hitachi is identified as the sole qualified vendor because they are the original manufacturers and possess the unique expertise required to disassemble, examine, and restore the breakers to proper operational specifications. The justification is filed under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for Simplified Acquisitions, with the contract number 25WA155576, and the agency's contracting office located in Huron, South Dakota.

Western Area Power Administration (Western) 200 4th Street SW Huron, SD 57350
2. Description of supply or service required to meet the agency’s needs.
Hitachi technicians to come on site and work on 4 ABB circuit breakers to get them back into spec on their timing.
This is to ensure if an event occurs that would trip a breaker, they open fast enough to minimize damage.
3. The rationale or circumstances for limiting competition.
4 breakers at the GSO substation were found to be out of spec for their timing and contact resistance during routine maintenance this year. Hitachi is the only company qualified to work on ABB breakers. They are the manufactures and know how to properly take apart the breakers to examine them and determine what needs to be done to get them back into spec.
