About this file
This document contains three justifications for other than full and open competition on a federal contract for dry dock repairs of the USCGC Frank Drew. The justifications cite FAR 13.106-1(b) and propose sole-source awards to original equipment manufacturers for technical representative services and proprietary software/tools. The work items include repairs to Rolls Royce equipment, an oily water separator system, and machinery plant control/monitoring systems. The justifications indicate the technical information is unavailable to evaluate alternative representatives and any attempts without it could compromise safe operation or restoration. The Coast Guard will continue market research but cannot require vendors to release proprietary data, making full competition unrealistic at this time. The related federal contract opportunity is for dry dock repairs of the USCGC Frank Drew from June to August 2021 with the Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard as the agency and a total small business set-aside applying.

IDENTIFICATION OF THE AGENCY AND THE CONTRACTING OFFICE, AND SPECIFIC IDENTIFICATION OF THE DOCUMENT AS A “JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION.” PLEASE CITE THE
AUTHORITY AND TYPE OF JUSTIFICATION.
The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Coast Guard, Surface Forces Logistics Center (SFLC) Icebreaker, Buoy & Construction Tender Product Line (IBCTPL), proposes to enter into a contract on a basis of other than full and open competition for the subject Work Items (WI) in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b).
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE.
Per paragraph 3.1.2 of Work Item 022 and 057, the Contractor shall provide the services of qualified Tech Rep, who is familiar with the Rolls Royce (formerly Bird Johnson) equipment/system, to accomplish the following tasks – on site:
• Provide manufacturer's proprietary information, software, and tools pertinent to the equipment/system.
• Assist with proper repair methods, and ensure compliance with manufacturer's procedures and standards during disassembly, inspection, repair, modification, calibration, and reassembly of the equipment/system.
UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER
SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED.
In accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b), only OEM manufacturer that has the techniques, design specifications, testing, quality assurance capability, and documentation of the work items, equipment. As such, only an qualified/ licensed technical representative are qualified to provide the manufacturer's procedures and standards during disassembly, inspection, repair, modification, cal bration, and reassembly of the equipment/system.
A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO ENSURE THAT QUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROM AS MANY
POTENTIAL SOURCES AS PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE).
Much of the technical information is proprietary to the OEM and unavailable for the Government to evaluate alternate technical representatives. Any decision to repair the existing equipment with equipment that can be sustained, commissioned or properly cal brated will have to be done to achieve this goal. The specification package containing these work items may be solicited on open marked, to be awarded without limitations. There are currently multiple venders on open market that can fulfill the requirements of these work items.
In an effort to promote competition and solicit as many potential vendors as poss ble, a sources sought notice was posted on Contract Opportunities on 14 October 2020. Additionally, USCG intends to make this justification publically available along with the solicitation pursuant to FAR 6.305 on Contract Opportunities.
REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.
EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL
AND OPEN COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE.
The Thruster Overhaul and Thruster Pinon Seal Renewal must conform to design, materials, and operational requirements. Any attempt to overhaul the thruster and renew the pinion seal without using proprietary information and technical data could cause the thruster not to operate safely. Any failure in restoring the thruster back to proper configuration in equipment damage and impact operational readiness.
PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY
BARRIERS TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED.
USCG will continue to conduct market research; however, without proprietary technical information descr bed above, obtaining full and open competition is not realistic. The Coast Guard cannot require any vendor to release proprietary information.
