This is a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity document issued by the Department of the Navy Mid-Atlantic Regional Maintenance Center (MARMC) in Norfolk, VA for contract N00024-22-D-4401. The document justifies awarding a sole-source delivery order (N5005425FC003) to Colonna's Shipyard Inc (CSI) for the removal and installation of a new Auxiliary Machinery Room Exhaust Fan Vaneaxial Fan Unit.

The work must be completed during a Continuous Maintenance Availability (CMAV) period, with CSI being awarded the delivery order on October 30, 2024. The justification cites operational schedules and the critical nature of maintaining continuous airflow for the ship's mission as reasons for the sole-source award. The work will be funded under FY2025 Operations and Maintenance, Navy (OM&N) funds. The contracting officer has determined the costs to be fair and reasonable based on historical data. The document notes that all multiple-award contract holders under N00024-22-D-4401 had fair opportunity for the original order, but providing additional competition for this follow-on work would result in unacceptable delays to the ship's operational commitments.
