I.P-2.2 Brand Name Justification Statement - Paint Pump.pdf

This is a Memorandum to the File documenting the justification for using other than full and open competition for a simplified acquisition under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR).

The acquisition is for a WIWA 63:1 Professional Pump Kit (Part Number 0664095S) with an estimated cost of $38,296 and a required delivery date of August 30, 2026. The sole source is WIWA, located at 107 N. Main Street, PO Box 398, Alger, Ohio 45812, with Sherwin Williams identified as the dealer representative in Honolulu, Hawaii. The contracting activity is PHNSY&IMF (Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility).

The justification for sole-source procurement is based on brand name specification. The document states that WIWA pumps are used by X71 and are necessary to spray various paint systems. Shop holds maintenance and repair contracts for WIWA branded pumps under contract N3225325RC97008. The memorandum notes that purchasing non-WIWA branded pumps would require creating a new maintenance contract, and that Shop 71 is already trained to operate and use this specific WIWA pump model. The technical certification was completed by Marissa Miyachi, Shop Planner, on June 30, 2026. The Contracting Officer's approval section remains incomplete as of the document date.
