BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE.
The Department of Homeland Security (OHS), U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Surface Forces Logistics Center (SFLC) Engineering Service Division (ESD) In Service Vessel Sustainment (ISVS), located at 707 E. Ordnance Road, Baltimore, MD 21226 proposes to enter a purchase order to Multimarine Services on a sole source basis. Contractor shall provide commissioning support and operational and maintenance training for the Carrier Refrigeration system which was supplied under Contract Number HSCG40-15-D-60362 which expired March 2023. Commissioning and operation and maintenance training have been completed on the first 14 MMA 225' WLB cutters as part of the Major Maintenance Availability program.
UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER
SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED.
M ultimarine Services is an authorized representative for Carrier in the area and has completed these services on 14 previous 225' WLB cutters. Multimarine Services is the only vendor that possesses the capability to access proprietary information required to successfully perform these services and maintain the warranty received when the system was originally procured.
A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO ENSURE THAT QUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROM AS MANY
POTENTIAL SOURCES AS PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE).
The 225 MAA is in the sunset of the program. All equipment has been delivered. A full formal contract would not be in the interest of the government for the last two 225 refer system startup or training due to relative low cost to use a local vender.
M ultimare services was the sub-contractor from the expired contract.
REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.
The government does not possess the technical data, drawings, manufacturing data or specifications required to successfully perform these services. Multimarine Services is an authorized OEM distributor that has provided these systems and performed these services for the 14,225' WLB cutters that have completed their MMA. Multimarine Services is the only vendor that can guarantee the warranty that was procured under the previous contract.
