This document is a Justification for Other Than Full & Open Competition (J&A) for the Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command. The solicitation is for two refrigerator compressors (NSN 4130014695749, P/N 364-48511-002) with a unit price of $457,069.50, resulting in an estimated total value of $914,139.00 including the option period. The contract is being awarded directly to Johnson Controls Navy Systems LLC (66935) after market research determined they are the only source of procurement, with an expected final delivery date of 04/09/2025.

The justification cites 10 USC 304(A)(1) as the statutory authority, indicating only one or a limited number of responsible sources will satisfy agency requirements. Technical review of government databases found no alternative sources, and Johnson Controls is deemed the sole manufacturer capable of meeting performance and compatibility requirements for this specific compressor. The proposed contract action was synopsized on the government-wide point of entry on 05/11/2024, with no other sources expressing interest in the requirement. The Navy plans to continue encouraging vendors with expertise to submit competing technical packages for future procurements.
