X Specific characteristics of the material or service that limit the availability to a sole source or particular brand name (unique features, function of the item, etc.).

Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources.

The above equipment can be awarded to any The Crosby Group distributor that bids on the correct custom part numbers and model numbers during solicitation. This material MUST be manufactured by the Crosby group for acceptance. These specific pieces are replacements in our Special Purpose lifting tool room. They are used for very specific, engineered, critical lifts. The size and models are called out in lift sketches and special purpose lifting TGIs for reoccurring critical work in the shipyard. If another model/brand is awarded it would require new lift sketches, TGIs, training, and engineering in the lifting handling department and that would slow down future work on the waterfront. Our special purpose lifting gear requires consistency in the equipment we use.

The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the government

CHECK & FILL IN ALL APPLICABLE BLANKS BELOW

_ The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed. Justi Describe the equipment you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

X These are “direct replacements” parts/components for existing brand name equipment.

Other information to support a sole-source buy:

We are replenishing our inventory in the tool room to add more pieces where we do not have enough and replace pieces of gear that has reached it’s service life. These are direct replacements to equipment we already maintain at PSNS.

I CERTIFY THAT STATEMENTS CHECKED, AND INFORMATION PROVIDED ABOVE, ARE COMPLETE AND CORRECT TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND DO NOT CONTAIN CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PROCESSING OF THIS SOLE-SOURCE JUSTIFICATION PRECLUDES THE USE OF FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION.
