ATT_04_URGENT_JA_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for Urgent Acquisitions form for requirements less than $250K, submitted to the Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Conversion and Repair, USN, Groton, CT for RBP Bar Stock (Purchase Request Number 13012085). The requirement is justified under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for urgent acquisition due to a Retractable Bow Planes (RBP) extend/retract cylinder shaft experiencing excessive pitting and leaks.

The requirement was identified on 11/14/2024 with a required delivery date of 01/23/2025. The urgency is due to the Naval Submarine Support Facility needing sufficient time to manufacture a new RBP shaft and complete installation to support underway operations/commitments. If the RBP bar stock is not received by 23JAN2025, it will impact the Atlantic Submarine Force's operational availability. The document includes technical certification from activity code 157C and approvals from both the C400 Procurement Contracting Officer and One Level Above Contracting Officer, with final approval dated 11/18/24.
