This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) memorandum for a simplified acquisition threshold procurement conducted under other than full and open competition.

The document justifies the use of a single-source acquisition for a MaxPro Power Pack component required for a High Pressure Water System. The contracting officer has determined that only one source is reasonably available based on brand name requirements. Specifically, the drawing for the High Pressure Water System explicitly specifies the MaxPro Power Pack for system assembly, and interchangeability is critical because the system is used across multiple jobs and multiple shipyards. The previous system utilized the same power pack, and the new system must be interchangeable with the previous system's parts and components to enable rapid replacement of components as needed to support mission-critical fleet operations. The certification is signed by Zachary E. Guay (Technical/Requirements Certification) dated 01/12/2026, and the Contracting Officer Victoria MacLellan provided approval on 01/13/2026. The justification follows FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) requirements for simplified acquisitions not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold and FAR 13.106-3(b)(3)(i) documentation standards.
