About this file
This document is a Brand Name/Sole Source Justification form for procuring the AccuMac Metal-Sheath Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometer (SPRT), Part Number AM-1880. The Navy requires two of these thermometers for their Calibration Standard Program, specifically to calibrate multiple pieces of test measurement and diagnostic equipment (TMDE) across Navy calibration laboratories nationwide. The justification cites compatibility with existing systems as the primary rationale, noting that the specific SPRT is required for thirty-three Navy Instrument Calibration Procedures (ICPs) which are used to calibrate approximately 850+ different equipment pieces annually.
The procurement is being conducted through solicitation N6426725Q4088, with the Naval Sea Systems Command as the contracting agency. The document emphasizes that procuring an alternative brand would cause significant delays in modifying existing calibration procedures and potentially impact critical equipment calibration processes. The Corona Division has indicated no plans to compete future contracts for these supplies at this time, but will assess the feasibility of competition if another potential source emerges. The solicitation is for a single purchase order on an all-or-none basis, with the goal of awarding to the most advantageous responsive offeror.
