About this file
This document is a Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole source Blanket Purchasing Agreement (BPA) for Emergency Escape Breathing Devices (EEBDs). The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) plans to award a five-year fixed-price BPA to Ocenco Inc. for acquiring up to 80,886 EEBDs with an estimated total value. The EEBDs are self-contained closed-circuit breathing apparatuses designed for emergency escape from Navy ships with Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) atmospheres, specifically for escaping shipboard smoke and fire scenarios.
Ocenco Inc. is the sole manufacturer with Capacity Rating (CAP) 1 certification from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), which justifies the sole source procurement. The market research conducted in December 2024 confirmed Ocenco as the only current provider of NIOSH-certified CAP 1 EEBDs. The procurement aims to prevent substantial duplication of costs and avoid unacceptable delays in meeting agency requirements. The BPA will support the Navy's need for emergency breathing equipment, with the government determining the anticipated costs to be fair and reasonable.
