About this file
Document Type: This is a Sole Source Justification Form from NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers for a federal contract requirement.
Requirement Details: The service requirement (Contract Number 20260001445) involves servicing and replacing MSD (Marine Sanitation Device) system eductors on the USNS Richard Byrd, with a Required Delivery Date of March 10, 2026. The restricted source is RED FOX ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC, identified as a sole source requirement rather than minimum government requirements. The specific parts to be serviced or replaced are Penberthy Eductors Model X4 (Part# 1000-5), which serve as direct replacement components for the MSD system.
Justification for Sole Source: The justification cites proprietary rights, noting that RED FOX ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC owns the proprietary rights to the drawings and blueprints for the MSD system (IAW 15953-AC-MMC-010). The document emphasizes that RED FOX technicians are the only certified technicians authorized to work on the MSD system, with no distributors in the United States. Additionally, per MSC SMS Procedure 10.6-002 and QMS N0750-100.00-AQ, the MSD system is deemed critical equipment that must be maintained by the OEM. The justification further references COMSCFINST 4490.1, which directs the use of only OEM parts on critical equipment, and notes that the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and US Coast Guard recognize only OEM servicing for the MSD system.
