7. EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL AND OPEN

COMMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE.

The explosive powder collection system listed above is a direct replacement for our existing system. Another unit found through market research would yield a system that varies in composition to our current system, and it would not easily replace our system in the event of equipment failure. An alternate system would also force us to retrofit our current duct, platform, and electrical to meet the demands of a new system, and this would incur substantial cost, downtime, and facility work to the McAAP.

8. PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIER TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED. IF THIS IS A FOLLOW-ON ACTION TO A PREVIOUSLY COMPETED ACTION, SO STATE.

If the current request is not action as stated, MCAAP will incur more cost and down time to the explosive processing program at B-194B, since it will be out of compliance with industrial hygiene requests for action.
