About this file

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for the acquisition of commercial products at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). The justification document authorizes a non-competitive procurement of a Raymond Model 970-CSR30T 208/420 forklift, including swing reach truck, swing reach mast/body assembly, battery with installation, and battery charger. The estimated total value falls within the micro-purchase threshold but does not exceed the SAT.

The contracting officer has selected a Brand Name justification type, determining that the specific Raymond swing reach forklift model is essential to meet the Coast Guard's warehouse operational requirements at the SFLC facility, as the forklift guidance technology is proprietary to Werres Corporation. The single source justification identifies Werres Corporation (UEI: N8CCMQ19MMM5), located at 807 East South Street, Frederick, Maryland, as the sole authorized provider. Werres Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of Toyota Corporation and is the exclusive owner, seller, and servicer of Raymond brand forklifts. Additionally, the document notes that Kardex Remstar is the sole provider of maintenance and repair services for related equipment, holding proprietary rights to software and parts. The contracting officer selected the "Other" method for price determination, citing Kardex's revocation of authorization for alternative repair facilities. The technical and requirements Point of Contact is Thomas Sparr, COR, and the Contracting Officer is Gabriel Oscar Jasbon, with signatures dated 08/05/2026.
