N3904027Q3214 Limited Source Justification.pdf

This is a Limited Source Justification (SAP) document for a federal acquisition under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, dated September 30, 2020.

The acquisition is for services to align, repair, and test a Capstan Controller/Motor, to be performed by ESCO Maritime Solutions. The period of performance is November 16, 2026 through November 30, 2026. The justification invokes two primary bases for limiting competition: (1) Exclusive Licensing Agreements—ESCO Maritime Solutions is identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and the only authorized vendor with the knowledge and capability to tune, align, program, and repair the Capstan Controller/Motor; and (2) Unusual and Compelling Urgency—the requirement was first identified on November 5, 2026, with an expedited delivery date of November 16, 2026, necessitating an expedited contract award to prevent mission impact. The technical certification was signed by Andrea Williams on November 6, 2026, and contracting officer approval was granted by Dayna O'Brien on November 10, 2026.
