This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for commercial products and services valued at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

The procurement involves Honeywell Analytics performing annual calibration overhaul services for PosiChek machines, with an estimated total value of $27,005.00 under Purchase Request 5200PR260026452. The justification cites "Only One Source Is Available" as the authority, supported by market research indicating that since 1988, the PosiChek3 computerized SCBA test bench has been the global industry standard for validating first-responder life-safety equipment. Compliance with NFPA 1852 standards requires evaluation on a testing machine calibrated directly by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Consequently, PosiChek3 units must be submitted directly to Honeywell Analytics for annual certified calibration to maintain operational certification and ensure the integrity of life-safety evaluations. The suggested source is Honeywell Analytics located at 405 Barclay Boulevard, Lincolnshire, IL 60069 (800-538-0363, Option 3). Fair and reasonable price determination was established through comparison of the proposed price with prices found reasonable on previous purchases and contracting officer's personal knowledge, with notation that the vendor no longer qualifies as a small business. The justification was signed by Technical and Requirements Point of Contact Nathan Lawrence Lambelet and Contracting Officer Joshua Cody Richardson, both digitally executed.
