About this file

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for commercial products and services under FAR 12.102(a) (FAR Class Deviation 25-21).

The U.S. Coast Guard, Surface Forces Logistics Command (SFLC) seeks services valued at $163,478.00 to support, maintain, and improve operations of the Allied Dual Point Davit system aboard National Security Cutters (NSC). Specifically, Work Item 3 requires an OEM authorized/licensed Technical Representative from Superior-Lidgerwood-Mundy Corp. (UEI: NHDSASKCSSS9, located at 302 Grand Ave, Superior, Wisconsin 54880-1243) to provide on-site services for the Centerline and Carriage Winches. The contractor must deliver manufacturer's proprietary information, software, and tools; assist with proper repair methods ensuring compliance with manufacturer procedures during disassembly, inspection, repair, modification, calibration, and reassembly; observe initial testing; adjust and set limit switches; and adjust wire rope lengths. The justification is based on the "Brand Name - Items peculiar to one manufacturer" authority, as the skills, proprietary software, and training required are exclusive to the OEM and cannot be provided by a general technical representative. The distinction is made between an OEM Authorized/Licensed Tech Rep, who has unrestricted access to proprietary information and tools, versus a Qualified Tech Rep, who would lack such access and therefore cannot complete this work item. Fair and reasonable price determination methods include market research and comparison to IGCE.
