About this file

This is a Memorandum for the Record (MFR) justifying the use of other than full and open competition for a simplified acquisition threshold procurement.

The acquisition seeks procurement of a Processor SPU 232.1 CAN card, part number 271010483, from Lange Energy & Drives, Inc., for use in an STBD PTO control system. The requirement has been determined to qualify as a single-source acquisition under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), as only one source is reasonably available. The primary justification cited is exclusive licensing agreements: the card is not commercially available and must be programmed specifically for the USNS Kaiser. Lange Energy & Drives, Inc. is identified as the original equipment manufacturer located in Jacksonville, FL 32256, and is the only authorized source for this specialized component. The product is not designated as critical ship equipment. The memorandum documents the technical certification that the facts and representations are complete and accurate, as required by FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i). The required delivery date and independent government estimate are redacted in the document. This justification supports proceeding with solicitation from a single source rather than pursuing full and open competition, based on the exclusive nature of the required product and its mission-specific programming requirements for the naval vessel.
