U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This document is a U.S. Coast Guard justification for restricting competition on a commercial products and services procurement below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). The Purchase Request Number is 52000PR260027338, with an estimated total value exceeding the micro-purchase threshold but not specified in full amount.

The procurement is for Barbee Valve and Supply Service Factory Technician Training on the Barbee TP-3000-RV Relief Valve Tester and Data Acquisition Cart Course, leading to a Manufacturer Certificate of Completion. The training will provide Naval Engineering Department (NED) Ketchikan personnel with technical skills and specifications necessary to inspect, maintain, repair, and operate relief valves, hoses, and fittings on Fast Response Cutters (FRCs), Waterline Buoy Layer cutters (WLBs), and Waterline Maintenance cutters (WLM). The justification cites "Only One Source Is Available" as the authority, supported by FAR 12.102(a) and FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1 for FAR Part 12. The rationale explains that the training deals exclusively with proprietary design standards and maintenance procedures specific to Barbee equipment, which only the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) can legally provide. A Notice of Intent was posted in SAM.gov with no responses. The suggested source is Barbee Valve and Supply INC, 8780 Technology Way, Reno, NV 89521 (UEI: NUDWNKYYRBF9). Fair and reasonable price determination methods selected include market research, comparison with previous purchase prices, and comparison with similar items in related industries. The document was signed by John E. Addaman, Training Specialist, on 03 August 2026, and digitally signed by Contracting Officer Karla Paola Balint on 08 August 2026.

Manufacturer Certificate of Completion.

THROUGH YOUR MARKET RESEARCH TO SUPPORT THE JUSTIFICATION TYPE:

Factory training deals exclusively with proprietary design standards and maintenance procedures uniquely specific to the Barbee TP-3000-RV Relief

Valve tester and Data Acquisition Cart. Because the OEM manufacturer offers this training, and legally owns the proprietary maintenance and design standards taught in the course, it is unreasonable to expect full and open competition for this specific technical certification. Barbee Valve and Supply is the manufacturer and all information is proprietary and therefore not available from any other source. A Sole Source letter has been provided by Barbee to substantiate this justification. Contracting Office posted a Notice of Intent in SAM.gov yielding no responses.
