Attachment I - Other than Full and Open Competition - Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for other than full and open competition for the Department of the Navy, Military Sealift Command (MSC) to award a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order to Rolls Royce Marine North America, Inc. (RRMNA) for propeller and hub replacement parts. The parts are needed to support three T-AO 187 class vessels: USNS John Lenthall, USNS Patuxent, and USNS Leroy Grumman. The order includes various OEM parts such as hub installation kits, seal blades, anti-rotation seals, and other components with quantities ranging from 1 to 256 units per item.

The sole-source justification is based on RRMNA being the only company with access to the proprietary technical data and manufacturing capabilities for these critical L4-rated propeller systems. A Sources Sought Notice was posted on SAM.gov on November 27, 2024 with a response date of December 10, 2024, with RRMNA being the only respondent. The award will be funded with FY25 Navy Working Capital Funds. The J&A cites 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) as the statutory authority and includes certifications from technical, legal, and contracting officials confirming the justification's accuracy and sufficiency.
