About this file
This document is a Justification for Sole Source (Simplified Acquisitions) for the United States Naval Academy (USNA), seeking to procure gymnastics pit equipment from Deary's Gymnastics Supply (DGS). The procurement includes various items such as bungee pit hardware (shooks, clamps), elastic shock cord, bungee bed, pit wall foam, pit edge pads, foam cube pit filler, and covered foam rectangles. The total estimated cost is redacted, with a required delivery date of September 15, 2025.
The sole source justification is based on compatibility requirements, as DGS previously provided gymnastics mats and designed the steel angle bungee system for the new gymnastics pit at MacDonough Hall. Switching to another vendor would necessitate additional steel angle installation and new gymnastics mats, resulting in unnecessary time and funding expenditures. The procurement covers both Government-Furnished-Government-Installed and Contractor-Furnished-Contractor-Installed portions of the gymnastics pit, with all materials needing to be compatible. The document is issued by NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center, Norfolk Contracting Department, Fleet Directorate, and dated August 5, 2025.

This requirement represents the minimum requirements of the Government with an estimated price of The required delivery date is 15 September 2025.
Describe in detail why only this source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources. (what specific characteristics of the supplies or services limit the availability to a sole source (e.g., unique features, function of the item, etc.)?)
The supplies or services must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed. The filler material described in this Statement of Work must be compatible with the existing gymnastics pit and the supporting pads and structure.
A construction purchase order was awarded to DGS for the design and installation of the steel angle bungee system for the new USNA gymnastics pit. Previously, USNA utilized the gymnastics mats procured from DGS in FY21, purchase order N0018921P0581, while the gymnastics pit was designed and construction began. Now that the pit construction has commenced, USNA will use these mats at the bottom of the pit and the required pit filler bungee system to attach to the steel angles. Therefore, all gymnastics equipment must be compatible. Attempting to switch to another vendor for the gymnastics pit bungee system would require a new steel angle installation and new gymnastics mats, requiring additional unnecessary time and Government funding.
Other information to support a sole source action:
The material in this procurement is Government-Furnished-Government-Installed portions of the gymnastics pit at MacDonough Hall.
The vendor also provided Contractor-Furnished-Contractor Installed portions of the gymnastics pits through the general contractor for the building renovation. The two procurements and all of the materials need to be compatible since they are being used in the same gymnastics pit.
