About this file

This is a Justification and Authorization (J&A) document for a limited source/sole source procurement.

The Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (PSNS), under the contracting activity of the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA)/Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization (DITCO), is seeking a one-year Rslogix software maintenance renewal contract beginning July 1, 2026. The requirement is for Rslogix software maintenance, a brand-name product from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Allen Bradley (Rockwell Automation), to be provided through North Coast Electric Company (CAGE Code: 0AL46, Large Business), the sole authorized distributor for the locale. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price new contract under FAR Part 12.102(a) for restricting competition. The estimated value is redacted in the document.

The Rslogix software is essential to PSNS operations, controlling Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) used to automate critical systems including fresh-water systems and refueling containment air-flow systems. Multiple shops and codes within PSNS depend on the Rockwell suite of tools and Studio 5000 to program PLCs and create user interfaces. Loss of this maintenance renewal would render these shops inoperable, eliminating the capability to monitor pure-water plant levels and regulate stand-alone high-pressure air compressors. Market research conducted April through May 2026 confirmed that only North Coast Electric Company can fully meet the government's needs. The contracting officer has approved this justification as accurate and complete.

J&A: Rslogix Maintenance Renewal

Page 2 of 3 Pages authorized distributor for the locale of the Rslogix software maintenance renewal is North Coast Electric Company (CAGE Code: 0AL46, Large Business).

4. IDENTIFICATION OF STATUTORY AUTHORITY:

FAR Part 12.102(a): Restricting competition

5. DEMONSTRATION OF CONTRACTOR’S UNIQUE QUALIFICATIONS

OR THE NATURE OF THE ACQUISITION REQUIRED:

These PLCs are utilized to automate various systems within PSNS including fresh-water systems and various refueling containment air-flow systems. This software is used to control C2300 PLCs and Shop 31 uses it to communicate with stand-alone high-pressure air compressors for routine maintenance and troubleshooting. The existing PLCs are integrated into the PSNS infrastructure, and all personnel are dependent on these functions.

IMPACT: Multiple shops/codes within PSNS rely on the Rockwell suite of tools and Studio 5000 to program the PLCs and create the user interface for operations.

These shops/codes would become inoperable due to loss of capability to monitor pure-water plant levels and for regulating stand-alone high-pressure air compressors. The Rslogix software maintenance integrates the system into a single software platform, and management of controls in a controlled system would be lost.

6. MARKET RESEARCH:

Based on current market research, dated April through May 2026, it has been determined that only the aforementioned Rslogix software maintenance (renewal) provided through North Coast Electric Company, can fully meet the Government’s needs and is in the best interest of the agency.
