BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE.

The Moyno TR Muncher ST203QFW1A1 ice grinder and controller are required for HEALY to complete the cutter’s science research mission. The ice grinder installation will prevent large pieces of ice from clogging and damaging the Science Sea Water (SSW) pump and its associated components.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER

SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED.

HEALY’s existing SSW system was originally engineered to use Moyno pumps and controllers. The Moyno TR Muncher grinder ST203QFW1A1 is fully compatible with the existing equipment allowing the pump, grinder and controller to interface seamlessly;

if the SSW system clogs; the proposed ice grinder, pump and controller will automatically initiate an un-jam sequence to prevent damage to the system. The grinder fits underneath the deck plates without any modifications.

A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO ENSURE THAT QUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROM AS MANY

POTENTIAL SOURCES AS PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE).

Other manufacturers of ice grinders such as Franklin Miler or JWC Environmental and Vogelsang do not offer the combination of controls, features, and compact size provided by the MOYNO TR Muncher ST203QFW1A1. Additionally, the competitor models are smaller in size do not meet our specific size, performance, and durability requirements. No larger models will fit underneath the deck pate in the designated location without any modification.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

If another manufacturer equipment is used there is a risk of compatibility issues. The TR Muncher grinder seamlessly integrates into the current system eliminating the need for any engineering or modifications. Moyno compatibility avoids potential disruptions to scientific operations. No other company can provide the same fit form and function.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL

AND OPEN COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE.

HEALY’s SSW System was designed from the ground up with three MOYNO water pumps, gear boxes and motors that provide the proper pressure and flow rates for the system valves, regulators and all other system equipment. If another manufacture ice grinder were purchased, the system would have to be reviewed to determine if there would be any potential engineering conflicts.

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY

BARRIERS TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED.

If the entire SSW system needs to be replaced in the future, the USCG will look at all possible sea water systems and select the equipment that meets all operational and technical requirements for a shipboard Science Sea Water System while at the same time being the best value to the Government.
