5. Rationale Justifying Use of Cited Statutory Authority

Pursuant to FAR 6.103-1(c)(2), this authority is appropriate when a procurement is deemed to be available only from a single source as a follow-on contract for the continued development of the major components. Previously awarded contract was to support a onboard at

. Preservation work of Forward Uptake and Intake Space was not part of the original requirement, and the Contracting Officer determined it to be an out-of-scope change.

Awarding a contract for additional work to another contractor would result in a substantial duplication of costs that is not expected to be recovered through competition. Currently, is located at where SHI, the incumbent contractor, will perform repairs tasked under the existing contract. The subject preservation work of TGI 38K4212355-A01 DL001 was identified during preparation of performance of the work tasked in the original TGI 38K4212355-A01, which shares the same space and location. Therefore, SHI, the sole offeror of the original contract, will already be mobilized and setup in the area where this work will be performed. If this work were to be awarded to another contractor, there would be additional costs as SHI would have to “demobilize” some of their temporary services to make room for a new contractor.

Moreover, additional work controls would be required if the contract is awarded to a new contractor, causing time delays to get the new contractor mobilized in this area. Most importantly, as TGI 38K4212355-A01 is one of the critical path jobs of this , it will increase the time needed to complete the work and jeopardize the availability scheduled completion. Therefore, continuing with SHI leverages their project familiarity, avoids costly delays inherent in contractor transitions, and ensures efficient repairs through access to proprietary documentation and parts. Considering the vessel's operational demands and SHI's logistical advantages, a sole-source award offers the most expedient and cost-effective path to accomplishing the subject effort.

The incumbent contractor, SHI, is uniquely positioned to perform this required preservation work, utilizing their specialized knowledge, combined with their active management of other requirements on the vessel, allows for the efficient and coordinated execution of these repairs. Awarding this contract to any source other than the incumbent, SHI, would result in unacceptable delays and a substantial duplication of cost. SHI can commence work immediately, integrating the new requirement with the ongoing to ensure all critical path items remain on schedule and the ship has a timely return to service.

6. Description of Efforts Made to Solicit Offers from as Many Offerors as Practicable

The solicitation for original contract# N62649826FA029 was competitively posted to in SAM. gov, the Government Point of Entry (GPE), and solicited to MSRA/ABR holders within Kanto-region of Japan that are technically certified to perform the requirements. SHI was the sole offeror that has expressed interest in bidding the original contract of N6264926FA029.

Additionally, a Sources Sought was posted IAW with DFARS PGI 206.302-1(d), on SAM.gov on 13 March 2026, for a period of fifteen (15) days with a response due of 28 March 2026. The notice was issued to conduct market research and identify interested shipyards capable of bidding on the specified effort. However, the Government received no responses from potential shipyards regarding this opportunity.

7. Determination of Fair and Reasonable Cost

The Contracting Officer will determine that cost to the Government of the services covered by this J&A are fair and reasonable prior to making contract award.

8. Actions to Remove Barriers to Future Competition

The Government will conduct a comprehensive market survey to identify potential vendors capable of providing similar services. This survey will help assess the feasibility of full and open competition for future requirements and build a list of qualified sources. Lastly, future solicitations will be issued on a competitive basis in accordance with FAR 6.101(b)(2)-Competitive proposals. To achieve full and open competition to the maximum extent practicable, the solicitations will be posted in the Government Point of Entry (GPE) to give responsible vendors, MSRA/ABR and non-MSRA/ABR holders an opportunity to submit a proposal.
