About this file

This document is a Memorandum for Use of Other Than Full and Open Competition for an Acquisition Under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The Military Sealift Command seeks to procure a specific 3-way Leslie Control Valve (8 BRZ 150 COMM FLGD 3W DOM AY Rotary Valve) from TORK Systems for the USNS HENRY J. KAISER and All 14 T-AO 187 Kaiser Class vessels. The procurement is justified through multiple rationales, including standardization, form/fit/function compatibility, and critical ship equipment requirements.

Key details include the sole source being TORK Systems (a US-owned small business with CAGE code 6VBX1), with a required delivery date of June 2, 2025, for the Ships Main Engine Lube Oil Cooling System. The procurement is for a direct replacement part that must meet the original equipment design specifications, and the document emphasizes that only this specific make/model will satisfy the government's needs for additional units or replacement items across the Kaiser Class vessel fleet.
