BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE. The purchase of THIRTY

(30) EA, CLUTCH, OVERRUNING, P/N FRSG600-KI-USCG CLUTCH, NSN 3101-01-590-3165. Vessel 45

RBM.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER

SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED. The technical data for the CLUTCH, OVERRUNING required to make an accurate assessment of equal or alternate equipment meeting the Coast Guard’s performance, fit, form and function requirements for this procurement is unavailable. The CLUTCH, OVERRUNING helps to mechanically separate the driveshaft from the driven shaft when the drive shaft or input rotates slower than the output shaft. This is critical for providing electrical power to the boat for all of the power requirements, especially during underway operations. Failure of this item would result in placing the vessel in a hazardous situation with the loss of electrical power. Any attempt to manufacture this item without the proper Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts and access to OEM reproduction manufacturing drawings, spec, tolerances/parameters, test procedures and other relevant information, could lead to major mission degradation.

A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO ENSURE THAT QUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROM AS MANY

POTENTIAL SOURCES AS PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE). Conducted market research using internet searches, GSA Advantage, and reviewed previous purchases to identify venders who would have the ability to provide the required materials.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

The CLUTCH, OVERRUNNING manufactured by KAWMAN INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES and this is the only brand that will be acceptable.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL

AND OPEN COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE. This is a proprietary commercial item of the proposed contractor. The reproduction of manufacturing drawings, specifications and other technical data related to this item were never purchased by the U.S. Coast Guard and therefore are controlled by and remain the sole property of the OEM.

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY

BARRIERS TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED. COR will continue to conduct market research in the attempt to locate vendors that can satisfy the needs of the Coast Guard including a requirement for manufacturer’s engineering drawings, detailed parts lists, design or testing procedures, and other relevant information concerning this item.
