This is a Commercial Only One Source Justification (NTE SAT) in accordance with FAR 12.102(a) for a sole source procurement by NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Centers (FLC).

The procurement covers a Cooler Housing, WP5000 (Part No. 062653) for a High-Pressure Air Compressor (HPAC) system. Competition is restricted to SAUER COMPRESSORS USA, INC., identified as the only known Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the HPAC system currently installed at the specified location. The required cooler housing is a direct replacement component specifically designed for the HPAC model WP5000 compressor and cannot be sourced from alternative suppliers. SAUER COMPRESSORS USA, INC. is classified as a Small Business according to NAICS codes and maintains CAGE Code 1KWT0. The justification establishes that this sole source procurement precludies competition to the maximum extent practicable due to the specialized nature of the component and its direct compatibility requirements with the existing HPAC system. The document acknowledges that processing of this sole source justification limits competitive opportunities and certifies this limitation is necessary to maintain system operability and compatibility with the installed equipment.
