BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE.

3.1.2 Tech Rep. The Contractor must provide the services of a Qualified Technical Representative who is familiar with the Ocean Breeze Marine A/C Series R-417A Condensers to accomplish the following on site:

• Advise on manufacturer's proprietary system information.

• Assist with the following installation and repair method(s) associated with changing from R-22 refrigerant to R- 417A refrigerant.

• Ensure compliance with manufacturer's procedures and standards during system disassembly, inspection, and reassembly as applicable.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER

SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED.

The Specification requires that the Technical Representative providing oversight be familiar with the Ocean Breeze Marine A/C Series R-417A Condensers to accomplish the scope of work through experience and/or technical training. There are currently multiple vendors in open market that can fulfill the requirements of this work item. During development of Work Item D-062, it was determined to be necessary and cost effective to select representatives who can direct and ensure proper installation, alignment, and calibration of the equipment.

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).

The specification package containing these work items may be solicited on open market, to be awarded without limitations. The requirements set forth in Work Item D-062 may be sourced out by the awardee to meet the requirements of the specification.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

Tech Rep must ensure compliance with manufacturer’s procedures and standards during disassembly, inspection, and reassembly of the equipment.

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 “Technical Representative” as required in this instance is only to provide expert technical oversight of the prime contractor’s technicians and be available as a subject matter expert on the equipment being worked on. There are currently no limitations on open market as to “who” can be a subject matter expert and long as they are trained and / or have adequate experience with the type of equipment described in this requirement.
