About this file
This is a Justification and Approval for Use of Exception to Fair Opportunity document (J&A) issued by the Department of the Navy's Mid-Atlantic Regional Maintenance Center (MARMC) in Norfolk, Virginia.
The document justifies awarding additional work on a non-competitive basis under Delivery Order N5005426FL001 to East Coast Repair and Fabrication for critical repairs to the USS GUNSTON HALL (LSD-44). The work involves repair of a Slewing Arm Davit (SLAD) shock absorber assembly as part of the ship's Continuous Maintenance Availability (CMAV) program under contract SSP TPPC-LSD44-MARMC26-S001. The statutory authority cited is FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(A), which permits non-competitive procurement when agency needs are so urgent that fair opportunity would cause unacceptable delays. The justification establishes that providing fair opportunity would delay the schedule by at least 30 days and that East Coast Repair and Fabrication is the only company with the required equipment and capability to perform the repairs within the allotted performance period. The work must commence immediately and be completed within a specified timeframe. The Contracting Officer determined that costs based on historical data, Independent Government Estimate (IGE), and the Project Manager's technical knowledge are fair and reasonable. The document includes certifications from the technical/requirements specialist, legal counsel, and the Contracting Officer approving the non-competitive award.

material burden rate were determined to be fair and reasonable at time of contract and delivery order award. The supported information provided should be sufficient to support the fair and reasonable cost determination of the procurement.
7. ACTIONS TO REMOVE BARRIERS TO COMPETITION
For reasons set forth in paragraph 5 and 6, market research was not conducted. The critical nature of the work requires that it is started immediately. Future acquisitions for similar work will be reviewed by the Contracting Officer on a case by case basis to promote the use of full and open competition in the acquisition process where possible under this multiple delivery-order contract, where possible and practicable in accordance with FAR Subpart 16.5. In addition, a copy of the change(s) covered by this justification will be forwarded to Code 200, Planning and Engineering, and Code 300 Waterfront Operations for consideration of similar work requirements in future solicitations.
