About this file

This Single Source Justification document covers the procurement of vacuum pumps for Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia. The specific requirement is for one new CL2002 Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump and one re-manufactured CL2002 Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump for Building 642, with a recommendation to award to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) representative, E.W. Klein & Company, or OEM authorized resellers. The procurement is justified due to specific technical requirements, including direct replacement needs, operational specifications, system integration constraints, and controls compatibility, which limit alternatives to the Gardner Denver Nash CL2002 brand. Market research was conducted using DSBS and SAM.gov databases, resulting in identifying only one small business capable of meeting the requirements, and the document notes plans to frequently scan the market for future competitive opportunities.
