About this file
This document is a Memorandum for Use of Other Than Full and Open Competition for an Acquisition Under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The procurement is for USCG Approved ELLIOT MK IV DL Liferafts for T-AH Class vessels, with a required delivery date of 22 DEC 2025. The acquisition is being pursued through a single-source procurement due to multiple justifications, including critical ship equipment requirements, standardization, and proprietary rights.
Key procurement details include the specification for replacement liferafts as shorebased spares, with the item being critical to ship operations and potentially hazardous if failed. The document cites standardization with existing vessels like USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) and USNS Comfort (T-AH 20), and emphasizes the need for parts that are compatible in form, fit, and function with existing steam turbine equipment. The procurement is being processed under the simplified acquisition threshold, with Elliot owning the drawings and MSC indicating they lack technological knowledge to evaluate non-OEM liferafts.
