This is a Small Business Coordination Record documenting an initial coordination action for a purchase request valued at $56,423.00. The requirement is to procure replacement parts for cranes onboard the USS John Canley (ESB-6) for completion of Work Item WI-0557A. The replacement crane parts are manufactured by Original Equipment Manufacturer Appleton Marine Inc., and the procurement is restricted to this single source due to mandatory regulatory certifications and system integrity requirements. The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and United States Coast Guard (USCG) certifications prohibit the use of non-OEM alternative parts in maintenance actions. The Contract Specialist conducted market research confirming that Appleton Marine Inc. is the sole provider meeting required form, fit, and function specifications, and no authorized distributors or alternative certified sources exist.

The contracting action is being performed by Naval Supply Systems Command (N00406) through Buying Office C233, with the contract specialist Brian D. Schuyler. The requirement covers 99 line items for delivery to BATS Warehouse San Diego during fiscal year FY26. The recommendation is "Other Than Full and Open Competition" with attachment of a justification and approval (J&A) document. No subcontracting plan, consolidated requirements, or bundled requirements are applicable. This is identified as a new requirement with performance/delivery dates spanning FY26 to FY26. The contracting officer Christopher L. Parker and Small Business Professional Juliet R. Roske have completed their respective reviews and approvals as of May 6, 2026.
