ATT 3 Redacted_J_A.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Use of Brand Name Only, document 4200 J&A No. 22-002, dated 8 November 2021.

The Naval Supply Systems Command, Fleet Logistic Center Pearl Harbor (NAVSUP FLCPH) seeks to award Brand Name Only Supply Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) to fulfill inventory needs for Commander Navy Region Hawaii (CNRH), Regional Boat Maintenance Center (RBMC). The procurement covers Yamaha outboard engines and replacement parts for a five-year period of performance (FY22 through FY26). The supplies include various parts for maintenance of multiple sizes of Yamaha engines, as well as complete engines for phase-out and replacement of existing Yamaha engines. A pricing table is included in the document showing planned quantities across the five fiscal years, though specific quantities are redacted. The contracting point of contact is Troy Wong, Code 201A, at (808) 473-7532 or troy.wong1@navy.mil.

The justification for brand-name-only procurement is based on 41 USC 1901(e)(2) and FAR 13.501(a). The rationale centers on the technical requirement that 22 Port Operations boats are configured exclusively for Yamaha outboard engines, and purchasing alternative manufacturers would require significant costly modifications to boat configurations. Additionally, using non-OEM parts would void warranty coverage on existing Yamaha engines and create substantial operational inefficiencies, including the need to maintain multiple diagnostic software systems, training programs, specialized tools, and 6-month parts inventories for each different manufacturer. The Contracting Activity posted a sources sought notice on NECO.GOV and SAM.GOV, identifying three offerors expressing interest and additional potential authorized Yamaha dealers through SBA Dynamic Small Business Search.
