7. Impact Statement (describe the impact on the mission or property)

CGC ALEX HALEY requires the #2MDE block and crankshaft be replaced during their FY I 7

DD which will require an access cut in the Auxiliary Machinery Room. The engine block was condemned during the last Center Section Overhaul. The cutter will not be fully mission capable to conduct scheduled operations if supplies are not provided . This will adversely impact the safety of the maritime public and the safety and security of the Homeland and citizens of the

United States of America.

8. Explain why an adequate purchase description or other information suitable to solicit by Full and Open Competition has not been developed or are not suitable.

CATERPILLAR is OEM for the SSDG. Parts must come from an authorized CATERPILLAR dealer, and are required to be authentic CATERPILLAR parts . No other items will be accepted .

CATERPILLAR sells remanufactured parts as an alternative to new parts . The remanufactured parts are by CATERPILLAR, carry full CATERPILLAR warranty, and are approved for use by

USCG. Multiple authorized dealerships are able to provide parts .

9. Provide a Statement of Actions, if any, the government may take to remove or overcome any barriers to competition before future acquisitions are required .

Coast Guard will seek to obtain proprietary data so we can open competition to other vendors or look for alternate parts that will meet the needs of the Coast Guard.
