SINGLE SOURCE DETERMINATION USING

SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES (SAP)

FOR AN ACTION NOT EXCEEDING THE SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION THRESHOLD

(AUTHORITY: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1))

NMAN7200-18-00586

1. Agency and contracting activity. Department of Commerce, NOAA Office of Marine and Aviation Operations, Acquisition, Analysis, and Accountability Branch.

2. Description of supplies or services required to meet agency needs (including the estimated value). The AlaminJet 288 priced at

3. Identification of the single source or the brand name to be solicited. AlamarinJet 288

4. Supporting rationale. Only one brand name is reasonably available as detailed below:

Compatibility to existing systems or equipment - The required supplies or service must be compatible in all aspects (form, fit, and function) with existing systems or equipment and the source is uniquely qualified to meet the requirement. The AlamarinJet Model 288 is the only waterjet that can replace the existing system due to its physical size and alignment combined with its capacity. The procurement of a waterjet of a different brand would have a different size and bolt hole patterns which would require additional alterations which would require more time and money to install, if it could be installed at all. If this item is not procured then the dive boat that needs it will continue to be out of commission and not be available for upcoming mission departure of 02/01/18 reducing mission productivity by 30%.

5. Market Research.

Called Hamilton and Alamarin waterjet manufacturers to discuss compatibility and interchangeability of several water jets.

6. Technical/Requirements Representative Certification

I certify that this requirement constitutes the Government’s minimum needs and the supporting data provided herein is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
