About this file

This is a Memorandum to the File documenting a determination of single-source procurement authority for a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12 commercial acquisition valued at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

The requirement is for the Marine Depot Maintenance Command (MDMC), Production Plant Barstow, to provide machining services for restoring MTU 20V4000 series engine crankcases and crankshafts. The services must comply with all Motoren-und Turbinen-Union (MTU)/Rolls-Royce Solutions America (RRSA) Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) technical requirements, including cylinder bore machining performed in accordance with MTU/RRSA specifications using specialized tooling capable of maintaining required tolerances without manual tool repositioning. The determination justifies limiting competition to a single source based on brand name restrictions, as only an MTU-authorized distributor or service provider qualified to perform work on the MTU 20V4000 series engine can satisfy the requirement. MTU controls authorization of its distributors and service providers, and the ability to establish or maintain an authorized distributorship agreement is solely at MTU's discretion. The justification does not invoke urgent and compelling circumstances. The document is certified by Gregory M Kastner (Technical/Requirements) and Jason Alexander (Contracting Officer). Distribution is restricted to DoW community personnel only, including MCFCS personnel, LB personnel, and designated procurement team members.

CUI Category(ies): PROCURE

MTU controls authorization of its distributors and service providers, and the ability to establish or maintain an authorized distributorship agreement is solely at the discretion of

MTU. Based on these OEM-specific requirements and authorization limitations, only an

MTU-authorized source is reasonably available to satisfy the Government's requirement.

C. URGENT AND COMPELLING. The supplies or services are of such unusual and compelling urgency that the Government would be seriously injured unless the agency is permitted to limit the number of sources from which it solicits bids or proposals. Urgent requirements are supplies or services that will result in a work stoppage, or are mission critical and the routine processing time would result in injury to the Government. The determination that the procurement for the above item/service is an urgent and compelling requirement is based on the following:

1. Date on which the requirement was first identified:

2. Required delivery date/period of performance:

3. Explanation of why delivery/commencement of services by the date mentioned above is required:
