About this file

This is a Memorandum for the Record documenting justification for use of other than full and open competition for a simplified acquisition threshold procurement.

The acquisition concerns OEM material order in support of CASREP repairs to a ship's Sound Powered Phone system, specifically Hose-McCann Communications repair parts (part number CASREP 25-023) for KAISER Sound Powered Phone equipment. The contracting officer determined that only one source is reasonably available for this requirement, which does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. The memorandum selects "Only One Responsible Source" as the determination basis, citing multiple justifications: exclusive licensing agreements with Hose-McCann as the Original Equipment Manufacturer who sells directly to the government; standardization requirements per COMSCINST 4790.3 to maintain fleet configuration baseline with the specified Hose-McCann Automated Dial Phone System Model T9432-AB-N across all T-AO 187 Class vessels; compatibility as a direct replacement part for existing equipment; and mission criticality, as the Hose-McCann Automated dial phone system is a critical component of the ship's communication system. The required product is not designated as critical ship equipment per COMSCINST 4490.1 and SMS Procedure 10.6-002-ALL. The justification includes technical certification by the requirement owner and requires approval documentation, with a CASREP number referenced for tracking purposes.
