Summary of Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for a non-competitive procurement by the Department of the Navy, Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southeast (NAVFAC SE), for a crane alteration project at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, Georgia.

The procurement involves awarding a task order to upgrade the electrical control system, pendant, wireless controls, and trolley festoon wiring on Crane 83-0043 located at NSB Kings Bay. The project requires Magnetek name brand parts including a Pre-Engineered Control Panel Enclosure, Engineered Wireless Control System, Electromotive Pendant, Pendant Strain Relief Bracket with Thimbles, and Pendant Strain Relief Fasteners. The total estimated project cost is redacted in the document. The Period of Performance is 12 months, with a projected award date of September 2026. The project will be funded by Strategic Weapons Facility (SWF) customer funds. The statutory authority for this single-source justification is Title 10, U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which permits procurement from only one responsible source when no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The J&A cites the technical requirements per NAVFAC P-307 Weight Handling Program Management Instruction and crane analysis reports, which dictate that only the approved Magnetek parts listed on the Crane Analysis Report can be procured for this upgrade. The document notes that efforts to solicit offers from multiple sources through a sources sought notice posted August 27, 2026 (with a September 3, 2026 closing date) yielded four responses that did not adequately address the capability to provide supplemental replacement parts for the specific requirement. The contracting officer has determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable based on market research and that complete replacement is not practicable or cost-effective.
