b. Reason for Authority Cited:

N0040626PS017 was awarded to Timken Gears & Services, Inc. on a sole source basis due to urgency under the authority of FAR Part 13. On 13NOV25, submitted a C4 CASREP for unusual noise in NR1 Main Reduction Gear (MRG).

The items listed in section 1 are urgently required material to accomplish the repairs of the MRG which is critical to during the current availability in and testing in to correct and restore the propulsion system to full operation to support national taskings.

If the required delivery date is not met there will be adverse impacts to safety of the ship and the 7th Fleet Area of Responsibility. The urgently needed materials are required to correct the system. This system is an essential element to support warfare mission areas The cost to the government each day for the ship being ashore and not underway to support its warfare mission is approximately . This would additionally reduce the ability of the US Navy to respond to threats in the Pacific area of operations.

Timken has proprietary drawings and specifications to the Main Reduction Gear as they purchased the intellectual property for the design and specifications from the Original Equipment designer (GE) and are needed to provide technical representative services due to the complexity of the work and their proprietary information. There are no authorized alternative bearings for use in the Main Reduction Gear. The parts are required to be direct replacement parts in order to ensure they fit properly with the other parts of the MRG, even a slight variation in form, fit or specifications can cause catastrophic damage to the MRG.

The market research conducted indicates that only Timken is capable of providing the required MRG repairs, as they hold proprietary rights to technical data, process, specifications and material on the MRG.

8. Actions to Remove Barriers to Future Competition For the reasons set forth in Paragraph 5, NAVSUP FLCPS has no plans at this time to compete future contracts for the types of supplies/services covered by this document.
