DTNA Redacted JOTFOC.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Surface Forces Logistics Center (SFLC). The procurement is for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) DTNA Parts for Daimler Truck of North America's 60 Series Marine Engines used on the USCG 45' Response Boat-Medium (RBM). The acquisition is a 100% Small Business Set-Aside multi-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a base year and four option years.

Market research conducted between July 2024 and February 2025 determined that Daimler Truck of North America is the only source possessing the required technical data and engineering specifications for these specific marine engine parts. The parts are critical for maintaining vessel safety and mission readiness, as non-OEM parts could void engine warranties and potentially jeopardize crew safety. The solicitation (70Z04025R51522B00) was posted on www.SAM.gov with a closing date of 10/31/2024, receiving responses from four companies, including Clarke Power Services (the only U.S. small business distributor). The contract will ensure proper compatibility and reliability of engines for USCG small fleet operations supporting search, rescue, and maritime missions.
