About this file

This document is a Justification for Sole Source acquisition for a 36-inch Pathway Bellow Assembly from Senior Flexonics Pathway Division. The document details the requirement to purchase a specific component for a shipboard system, emphasizing that only an exact duplicate manufactured by Pathway can be used to ensure form, fit, and function compatibility with the existing installed system. The justification highlights that the Pathway Bellows are proprietary and that direct replacement is necessary to maintain the integrity of the current shipboard equipment.

The sole source procurement is for part number 36"PBTEE-M16455-1, with the manufacturer located in New Braunfels, TX and represented by Brad Thompson Co. in Seattle, WA. The document references FAR 13.106(b) and certifies that the procurement precludes full and open competition due to the unique specifications and proprietary nature of the component. The justification was prepared for DLA Maritime Puget Sound and dated 05/21/2018, indicating this is a historical procurement document for a specific marine equipment replacement part.
