About this file
This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOTFOC) under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for a 60-day certification extension of the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Yard Shiplift located in Baltimore, MD. The shiplift was installed with proprietary Alten Machinery equipment, and only the owner, Pearlson Shiplift Corporation, has the necessary technical information and authorization to inspect and certify the equipment. The JOTFOC cites 10 U.S.C. 3201(a)(1) as the authority, as Pearlson Shiplift Corporation is the only responsible source that can meet the agency's requirements. The estimated cost is over the micro-purchase threshold, and market research indicated that Pearlson Shiplift Corporation is the sole source capable of providing the required services.

SOLICITATIONS MAY BE LIMITED TO ONE SOURCE ONLY IF THE CONTRACTING OFFICER DETERMINES THAT ONLY ONE SOURCE IS REASONABLY AVAILABLE. THIS DETERMINATION MUST BE SUPPORTED WITH FULL JUSTIFICATION FOR SOLE SOURCE FROM THE CUSTOMER. WHEN THE CUSTOMER DESCRIBES AN ITEM WITH A PURCHASE DESCRIPTION WHICH LIMITS THE AVAILABILITY TO ONE SOURCE, THE JUSTIFICATION MUST EXPLAIN WHY THE ITEM IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WILL MEET THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENT.

Language such as "This company has made its mark," "This company is recognized as industry's best," and "This company is the leader in ... " is unacceptable.
