About this file
This is a Commercial Only One Source/Brand Name Justification document submitted by NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers (FLC) in accordance with FAR 12.102(a).
The justification covers six related purchase requests (N6275861387531 through N6275861387536) for direct replacement electrical and electromagnetic pulse (EMP) protection components for the DDG-115 USS Rafael Peralta. The required items include a Stuffing Tube (PN: AX0685-4016-SP), Box Hub Fitting (PN: AX0772-48-CT), two Box Hub Couplings (PN: AX4737-4840-CT and AX4737-4848-CT), and two EMP Conduit components (PN: CC261-48 and CC261-40). The estimated total cost is $37,328.90 with a required delivery date of June 30, 2026. Competition is restricted to a sole source: Icore International Inc. (CAGE Code: 05593), a large manufacturer with over 1500 employees. The manufacturer point of contact is Natosha Basnight (757-523-2900, natosha.basnight@jokell.com).
The justification asserts that sole-source procurement from Icore is necessary because these components are proprietary to Icore and incompatible with products from other manufacturers. The current system is entirely outfitted with Icore-manufactured products, and using non-Icore components would compromise system integrity, reliability, and EMP protection capability. Icore maintains exclusive control over design, engineering characteristics, manufacturing processes, and proprietary technical data. The document was certified by Equipment Specialist Motoki Oohashi (SRF-JRMC Yokosuka C500) on May 21, 2026, and requires signature by the FLCPS Contracting Officer.

Basis For Decision That Only One Source Is Available Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source or brand name. For example, the material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed/performing. (unique features, function of the item, etc.). Describe in detail why only this source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources.
Some examples of reasons that only one source is available include but are not limited to
A patent, copyright or proprietary data that limit competition Urgency These are direct replacement parts/components for existing equipment Brand Name requirement
DoD Guidebook for Acquiring Commercial Items Part B, Pricing Commercial Items (Page 2):
“The fact is DoD must acquire a significant amount of “sole source” items and services that meet the commercial item definition. Frequently, DoD ends up in commercial sole source situations for reasons other than there only being one qualified firm that can provide the product or service. One common reason is the nonrecurring cost and time investment spent by the Government and commercial supplier to tailor their commercial item to meet a military purpose.”
These items are direct replacement components for the existing electrical equipment and EMP protection assembly installed aboard DDG-115 USS Rafael Peralta. The required items must be procured on a sole-source basis from Icore International Inc. because components manufactured by other companies are not compatible in form, fit, or function with the existing system configuration.
The current system is entirely outfitted with Icore-manufactured products, and the fittings and associated components are proprietary to Icore. Components produced by other manufacturers are incompatible with existing Icore assemblies and cannot be interconnected without compromising system integrity, reliability, and performance. Use of non-Icore components would increase the risk of equipment failure, incompatibility, and degradation of EMP protection capability.
Icore International Inc. maintains exclusive control over the design, engineering characteristics, manufacturing processes, inspection requirements, and proprietary technical data associated with these parts. The required part numbers are proprietary intellectual property of Icore International Inc., and no other manufacturer is authorized or capable of supplying approved alternate items that meet the required specifications and compatibility requirements.
