26Q0053 Brand Name Redacted.pdf

This is a One Source/Brand Name Justification (NTE SAT) filed in accordance with FAR 12.102(a) for a sole-source procurement by NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers (FLC).

The procurement concerns a Motor, Electric AC manufactured by Siemens Energy with part number 1RA6317-6SC80-Z (NIIN 012886356), required for delivery to BATS San Diego, CA by February 1, 2027. The manufacturer's point of contact is Sven Fritzesche of Siemen's Maritime and Offshore Service (954-778-9679; fritzsche.sven@siemens-energy.com), and the manufacturer holds CAGE Code 0ACF4 and is classified as a large business per NAICS standards. The estimated cost including options is redacted in the document.

The justification asserts that only Siemens Maritime and Offshore Service Company can supply this component because it is a critical, highly specialized piece of machinery integral to the T-AO class vessel's power and propulsion systems. The document argues that failure of the PTO pony motor could result in catastrophic loss of power and endanger crew and mission. The justification emphasizes that the part's design, manufacturing processes, and system integration are proprietary to Siemens, and that introducing a non-OEM part would introduce unacceptable safety risks, void warranties, and potentially violate COMSC Instruction 4490.1C for critical safety items. The document further notes that only Siemens can provide the necessary certifications and guarantees meeting naval and maritime safety standards. The contracting officer and requiring activity representative have certified the accuracy of the statements and acknowledge that this sole-source procurement precludes competition to the maximum extent practicable.
