OVP Other Than Full and Open Pump Parts Redacted.pdf

This is a Memorandum for the Record documenting a contracting officer's determination to use other than full and open competition for a simplified acquisition threshold purchase.

The memorandum justifies a single-source acquisition from Leistritz Advanced Technologies Corp for bushings, bearings, mechanical seals, and a rotor set required for a Leistritz Advanced Technologies Pump L2NG 106/180 ASOGIA-G and L4NG 135/61. The products are needed for the USNS Oscar V. Peterson FY27 Maintenance Training Activity, with a required delivery date of January 14, 2027, and performance period ending May 25, 2027. The contracting officer determined that only one responsible source is available based on exclusive licensing agreements and standardization requirements. Specifically, Leistritz Advanced Technologies Corp is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that owns all rights to the dimensional, material, and manufacturing details. The standardization justification cites COMSCINST 4790.3, noting that to maintain fleet configuration baseline across all TAO 205-class vessels, only the specified make and model of equipment and parts will satisfy the Navy's needs for additional units and replacement items. The products are not designated as critical ship equipment. The acquisition is identified by PID Number N32205-26-SIMACQ-DSM-PMI-0347 and was approved by Contracting Officer Amory Austin on the date shown in the digital signature.
