1.3.5 26Q0194 One Source_Brand Name Justification FINAL_Redacted(1).pdf

This is a Sole Source/Brand Name Justification (NTE SAT) document submitted by NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers (FLC) in accordance with FAR 12.102(a).

The document justifies restricting competition to a single source for the procurement of fire/acoustic insulation materials (STRUCTO-GARD FB, Part Number 1301333902) required for repair and preservation of forward uptake space on naval vessels. The Purchase Request Number is N6275860457418, with a required delivery date of June 5, 2026. The sole source manufacturer identified is Claremont Sales Corporation (CAGE Code 52307), and the estimated cost including options is redacted. The justification asserts that STRUCTO-GARD FB is the only suitable product because Claremont Sales Corporation owns the design, controls all manufacturing specifications and inspection requirements, and the material is proprietary intellectual property. The document emphasizes that compatibility and proper functionality with existing installed systems require use of the same manufacturer for all materials, and that mixing multiple manufacturers would increase the risk of failure and incompatibility. The certification statement confirms the information is complete and correct to the best of the certifying Equipment Specialist's knowledge, and an FLCPS Contracting Officer has signed the document approving the sole source justification.
