This document is a NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers Sole Source/Brand Name Requirement form for naval equipment. The procurement is for two specific filter/gasket items (Filter Candle PN BOL135002G, Qty 300 and Gasket Set PN BOL3640116, Qty 2) to be delivered to BATS San Diego, with a Required Delivery Date of 9/30/2025. The manufacturer is Boll & Kirch Filterbau GmbH, a US subsidiary of Boll Filter Corp.

The document justifies the sole source procurement by noting that regulatory bodies like the US Coast Guard and ABS only recognize servicing and repairs for this shipboard equipment through OEM representatives. The filters are critical safety items for Main Propulsion Diesel Engines, and procuring alternative replacement parts would compromise the required reliability and effectiveness. The document emphasizes that any work performed by a company other than the Original Equipment Manufacturer would void warranties on the equipment.
