About this file
This document is a justification for other than full and open competition simplified acquisition procedures. It details a requirement by the U.S. Coast Guard for nine Honda BF150DXCRA engines and nine Honda BF150DXRA engines to support vessel operations. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as the authority, as Honda is the only responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency's requirements. Technical data for the engines is proprietary to Honda and unavailable from other sources, so only Honda can properly manufacture the engines to maintain configuration and performance. Market research did not identify any other vendors that could satisfy the need. The contracting officer signature is required by May 12, 2023.
