JnA Fire Screen Doors_Redacted.pdf

This is a memorandum justifying the use of other than full and open competition for a simplified acquisition under the FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) threshold. The acquisition is for material required by USNS Lucy Stone FY27, specifically a Change Fire Screen Door (T=ALT 205-0167) with a required delivery date of 01 July 2026. The required source is Trident Marine Systems, the only identified vendor capable of providing this item.

The justification is based on multiple grounds under the "Other Reason" category. The procurement qualifies under standardization/brand name requirements, as only the specified A-60 make/model will satisfy the Government's needs for additional units and replacement items for vessels including USNS Earl Warren, USNS Oscar V. Peterson, and USNS Robert F. Kenney. Additionally, the item qualifies as a direct replacement part/component for existing A-60 Fire Screen Doors and must be compatible in terms of form, fit, and function with the existing equipment configurations on these vessels. The memorandum requires completion of the Anticipated Dollar Value of Procurement section, though this field is not filled in the document provided.
