About this file

This document is a justification for other than full and open competition simplified acquisition procedures. The justification requests four strainers from Control Factors-Seattle Inc to support repairs on two 45-foot Response Boat Mediums for the U.S. Coast Guard. The strainers are needed immediately to meet the Coast Guard's mission requirements and return the vessels to fully operational status. Only Control Factors-Seattle Inc can meet the U.S. Coast Guard Engineering Division's specifications for weight and water coolant flow rate of the strainers in the required timeframe. Market research confirmed the vendor's price is fair and reasonable and its immediate availability to fill the order.

SOLICITATIONS MAY BE LIMITED TO ONE SOURCE ONLY IF THE CONTRACTING OFFICER DETERMINES THAT ONLY ONE SOURCE IS REASONABLY AVAILABLE. THIS DETERMINATION MUST BE SUPPORTED WITH FULL JUSTIFICATION FOR SOLE SOURCE FROM THE CUSTOMER. WHEN THE CUSTOMER DESCRIBES AN ITEM WITH A PURCHASE DESCRIPTION WHICH LIMITS THE AVAILABILITY TO ONE SOURCE, THE JUSTIFICATION MUST EXPLAIN WHY THE ITEM IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WILL MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENT. STATEMENTS SUCH AS "ONLY KNOWN SOURCE" OR "ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN MEET THE REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE" ARE INADEQUATE TO SUPPORT A SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE. Do not use marketing language in this document. Language such as “This company has made its mark,” “This company is recognized as industry’s best,” and “This company is the leader in…” is unacceptable.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE. Company is to supply strainers to support the 45’ RBM boat repairs.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED. The water coolant flow rate required, and the weight of the strainer is approved by USCG Engineering.

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). Market research was conducted, and this company can supply in the needed time frame to support the Coast Guard mission.

Market research shows this vendors price is fair and reasonable.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

The USCG has an immediate need of four strainers to complete repairs on 02 45’ RBMs. Competing this requirement would result in unacceptable delays in returning these vessels to fully mission capable status.

Control Factors-Seattle Inc has immediate availability to fill the order.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE. Engineers have reviewed the data and the requirements, and these strainers meet the requirements of this platform.

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY

BARRIERS TO COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED.
