_X Specific characteristics of the Material or service that limits the availability to a sole source or particular brand name (unique features, function of the item, etc.).

Describe in detail why only this suggested source can furnish the requirements to the exclusion of other sources.

The APX-6000XE radios (and licenses) have no trunking capability, they need to be compatible with other existing Motorola APX-600XE radios that Shop 71 currently has in its property inventory to function correctly. The radios are used as a means of ensuring employee safety while sandblasting and painting in enclosed spaces and as such a different manufacturers radio would not interface correctly and present a serious safety issue by virtue of no communication. This could result in catastrophic equipment failure and loss of life. Additionally, they must be compatible with the Shipyards ELMR (Enterprise Land Mobile Radio) system, another manufacturers radio would not be compatible. The radios are specifically approved by C/106 per approval 25-0310.

_X_ The requested material or service represents the minimum requirements of the Government.

CHECK & FILL IN ALL APPLICABLE BLANKS BELOW

_X_ The material/service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit and function) with existing systems presently installed. Just Describe the equipment you have now and how the new item/service must coordinate, connect, or interface with the existing system.

The radios are specifically programmed to sync up with existing radio towers/repeaters and Designated Government VHF Marine Radio Frequencies as dictated by the FCC. The radios are coded so that security can monitor communications between members for security purpose. Another manufacturers radio would not interface correctly and could not be monitored.

A patent, copyright, or proprietary data limits competition. The proprietary data is:

These are “direct replacements” parts/components for existing brand name equipment.

_X_ Other information to support a sole-source buy:

The radios will be used in conjunction with the current Motorola APX 6000XE radios that Shop 71 has and uses on a daily basis in support of sandblasting and painting operations in enclosed spaces in both shipboard and non-shipboard locations.

I CERTIFY THAT STATEMENTS CHECKED, AND INFORMATION PROVIDED ABOVE, ARE COMPLETE AND CORRECT TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AND DO NOT CONTAIN CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PROCESSING OF THIS SOLE-SOURCE JUSTIFICATION PRECLUDES THE USE OF FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION.
