About this file
Summary
This is a Limited Source Justification (LSJ) template used to document the rationale for restricting competition on federal acquisitions below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The document, revised September 30, 2020, provides a structured format for contracting officers to justify sole-source or limited-source procurements when full and open competition is not feasible.
The justification applies specifically to the Shipyard's procurement of SPECTROMAXX and SPECTROLAB S Analyzers maintenance and calibration services from SPECTRO Analytical Instruments, the sole approved supplier. The requirement is justified under the "Only One Responsible Source" criterion based on restrictive intellectual property rights. SPECTRO Analytical Instruments, as the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), possesses proprietary data and knowledge necessary to perform effective maintenance on the analyzers, and the company explicitly states it is the sole and only approved supplier of service, with no third-party contractor authorization. The Shipyard lacks internal resources to perform this specialized annual maintenance. The template requires technical certification and contracting officer approval before execution, with provisions for documenting brand name justifications, exclusive licensing agreements, or unusual and compelling urgency situations when applicable.
