About this file

This document is a Memorandum for the Record justifying a sole source acquisition for two high pressure air compressors under the simplified acquisition threshold. The contract requirement is for two high pressure air compressors (HPACs), each providing 85 standard cubic feet per square inch of compressed air, with a performance period from 04/29/2025 to 06/30/2025. The procurement is being conducted by the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF) Contracting Office, with the justification citing unusual and compelling urgency as the primary rationale for using a single source.

The document indicates the requirement was first identified on 25 April 2025, with a required delivery date/performance period of 29 April 2025 to 30 June 2025. The contracting officer, J. Brian Fergus, has certified the facts and representations in the justification as complete and accurate. The acquisition is being processed under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which allows for solicitation from one source when only one source is reasonably available, and the requirement is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.
