SUBJECT: Single Source Justification for Electorplating Chemicals F3YCEB0039A102,

1. Subject action is for electroplating chemicals used in the metallurgical treatment of aircraft engine parts. There are various chemicals required on the subject PR that effect different outcomes in the electroplating process.

0001. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol IZ-264, 5gl pail...9 pl 0002. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol IZ-264T, 5gl pail...25 pl 0003. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol NZ-777, 5gl pail...5 pl 0004. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol IZ-C17+B, 5gl pail...8 pl 0005. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol IZ-C17+NI, 5gl pail..14 pl 0006. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol IZ-C17+MS, 55gl drum...7 dr 0007. Zinc Nickel Plating Solution, Dipsol F-0529, 5gl pail...12 pl

2. The electroplating process for engine parts is controlled by specific Technical Orders (TO) and Drawings. These documents are developed and amended by Air Force and manufacturer specialists to ensure optimal results and protect expensive engine assets.

. The electroplating process for each part is developed with specific chemistries and these are then incorporated into the TO or drawing. In the case of subject PR, AF Drawing 201027456 states that only Dipsol products are approved for the Zinc-Nickel plating process.

No substituions are authorized.

3. Due to tight restrictions of vendor approvals and sales territories, Dipsol has authorized only Goad Company to market and sell its products in the Tinker AFB area. No other company can quote or provide Dipsol products to Tinker AFB.

4. Two vendors on AFSC/PZIMC’s Electroplating Chemical BPA program included Dipsol products on their price lists; however, when a fair opportunity RFQ was sent to BPA holders, only Goad Co. repsonded with a quote.

. Because of the AF Drawing, it is not anticipated that other products will be tested or approved in the near future.

5. A synopsis was posted for subject requirement and no responses were received. Synopses will continue to be posted for Electroplating Chemical requirements over $25,000.00.

6. I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13, that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
